Kokanee: a first taste

I'll be honest, I expected this to taste like piss water. I was wrong. I'm not saying that this is a good beer, but this is not utter crap either. The label says "Glacier beer" I say, "Does it matter?" You know, this is an ok beer. At first it tastes pretty smooth but then the hops kick in, and quite suddenly too. The thing I like most about this beer is that it leaves a very slight hint of sweetness, reminding me ever so slightly of Sleeman Honey Brown Lager. I have to say that it seems less hopsy than Stella Artois.

For me, the thing that drags this beer down into the gutter is its reputation. This is a cheap, let's party and pass out beer. I don't want to be seen drinking it.

-Slightly sweet aftertaste

-Bad rep
