Handwritten notes: I don't think that any place could be further from Pilsen, Czech Republic than Winnipeg, Manitoba. This beer makes up for its unflinching macro taste with a bunch of cockamamie pictures on the label. There is some bold and noble history behind the label, but it's incredibly dull. I can say without exaggeration that this is the first and only time I have poured this beer into a glass. Really though, for a big time Molson-brewed beer, this could be worse. When I think Canadian beer I don't think Blue or Canadian, I think Pil.
