Tennant’s (lager) is light gold in color, lightly carbonated and produces a big fluffy head on the initial pour. Plenty of Brussels lace as the head recedes. Very aromatic and reminiscent of a Northern German lager in that respect. Some people call it skunky, but I don’t think it’s quite that bad in this case. First whiff brings hops, second brings maltiness. Very smooth on the tongue with a dryish finish on the back of the palette and tongue. Not much aftertaste, just a mild sweetness. Very drinkable, but not something I’d buy on a regular basis, unless it was a good deal. Generally I drink it at the Highland Games and pay $4.00 for a pint of it. Not a bad beer.
One more thing…their stupid website will only let you see an advert for a soccer game that was played on September 5, and tells you you’re too late to enter a contest. I had this same problem with Labatt’s last week, that’s why I posted that lame video. He big brewers, GET ON THE BALL!
