Reviews:

Bruz: Not a bad beer overall. As the name suggests it's a dry brew and tastes like nothing more, nothing less... Not one bad thing about it, and nothing exceptional either. Besides the fact that it's a decent looking small mouth Canadian 40oz. Overall rating is 6/10 swills. Thanks out to ThUgWiGGa for the empty new label 40!


Buzzcore: I seem to enjoy most brown bottled 40s, and this was no exception. Great crisp flavor and it didn't have that "smoked" flavor like most of the dry beers I've had from Canada. I kinda' like the look of the label too. A simple, classic design. Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed this sometimes hard-to-find Quebecois 40. If I needed to find a flaw, it's that with only 5.6% alcohol, it's quite lacking in the buzz department. Still a good solid 40 that I will most definitely drink again when I get the chance. 7/10.


Drastic Mezures: This review is for the old label. What's with these crazy Canadians and dry brew? This is my 4th dry 40 and all are Canadian. Overall there's not much to say about it except it sucks. It's called special 7 but it's 5.6% alcohol; who knows? What i do know is it was like ass end from top to bottom. the good points are its a small mouth and for a 5.6% 40 it packs a mild buzz. After drinking this I need some castle. I also have the new label so look for another review soon.


sippin apache: Just bought a case of these, 12 40's for 46CAD$.(new label)

This is a cool 40, small mouth, decent, yet regular tasting beer. 5.6% alc/vol. No after taste. Goes down real easy. Well carbonated. Good crack and hiss.

Nothing to add, it's a regular canadian brew, compares to molson dry yet much cheaper. Oh yeah, you can drink this one ice cold or slightly warm and it tastes ok.
7/10, cuz it could be stronger, at least 8-9% so you dont need to have 2 to get the buzz on.


ThUgWiGGa: AWESOME AWESOME 40!!!
sippin apache generously gave me a full one when we met up in montreal for the meeting

This is my favourite 40 available in canada

i want to return to montreal and buy a case... or 2
9/10
