Molson Coors Canada Rickard’s Red Session Lager American Amber / Red Lager at 4% ABV (C$3.31 at NLC Stavanger, 473 ml, bottle date 10-Feb-2016, reviewed 11-Mar-2016)
Appearance: clear slightly red-tinged medium amber with one finger of loose light beige head diminishing rapidly to a thin skim, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: caramel malt, bready, corn, light earth/herbal. (4/10) Taste: moderate-low sweet, moderate-low bitter. (4/10) Palate: light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry finish. (3/5)
What? They had it as singles, OK? It’s not like I bought a six-pack! So, anyway, yeah: watered-down Rickard’s Red. Whee. Sort of like Molson 67, in that if you think of it as lightly beer-flavoured water, it’s not terrible. It’s not good, either, mind you. Oh my goodness, no. But, a guy could gag it down. In a pinch. If I have to. I guess. (9/20)
