Brewed by: Molson Canada
Country of Origin: Canada
Beer Style: Pale Lager
Ratings (1-10 scale) and notes:
Aroma: 2 (not much at all)
Appearance: 4 (fair color, decent head)
Taste: 4 (neither bad nor noteworthy, but aftertaste lingers)
Body: 3 (typical for beer of this style)
Finish: 5 (lingers.....)
Price/Value: 6 (at $5.29/6 pack, on par with domestics)
Total Beer Guy Score: 24/60
General Notes:
Not bad, but there are other imported Canadian beers out there I'd rather spend my money on. I know this is a staple of Canada like Grizzly Bears and Mounties, but it's hard to discern what the fuss is over.
I'd Drink It When: I was actually in Canada. It's inexpensive, but one can do better unless you're trying to fit in. If you brought this to a party, people would laugh. Trust me.

Moosehead Lager
Brewed by: Moosehead Breweries, Ltd.
Country of Origin: Canada
Beer Style: Pale Lager
Ratings (1-10 scale) and notes:
Aroma: 3 (slight, but pleasing)
Appearance: 4 (nice color, good head)
Taste: 5 (good balance)
Body: 3 (typical for beer of this style)
Finish: 7 (clean)
Price: 6 (at $5.49/6 pack, its a good option)
Total Beer Guy Score: 28/60
General Notes:
I'm a fan of the stuff, frankly. I find it much better tasting than the domestic lagers - and it's not as 'thin.' The taste is a little strong for the Coors Light crowd, but it's a nice change of pace. Can be difficult to find.
I'd Drink It When: Good for casual functions. Not something I'd order at a restaurant, but fine for watching the game or kicking around on a Saturday with friends.

Huh? What's this?
I am a fan of all things beer, and I've come to realize that there are hundreds of different brands, flavors, and categories available. I want to try every one.
I'll be using this blog to record, score, and summarize each of the bottles and cans I imbibe. I'll do my best to hit 'exotic' brews in addition to the old standards, and throw a picture of the bottle up as well, so you'll have an idea what to look for should you want to try something new.
Your comments/suggestions are welcome!
