Has anyone had this or better yet know where in Calgary it's being sold already? Thanks

I haven't seen it yet, and I've been to the liquor store 3 times this week. I have heard it's all right but not great.

Pretty much describes any Canadian mass market beer that tries to market itself as premium or special in some way.

I tried it last week at Co-Op's "Grape Escape"...thought it was quite good. It should be available soon, if not already, at Co-Op liquor stores.

Yeah...I'm sure it probably tastes a lot like Rickard's White. That said, I'll buy a 6er of that stuff every now and then, especially if it's hot outside. Different taste than your Hoegaarden's, Blanche De Chambly, Erdringer Weissbier, etc....but I wouldn't say it's necessarily inferior.

From what I remember...it had the same look as Rickards, but definitely tasted different.

I personally find Rickards white to be a beer I just can't drink, and I can drink almost anything.... including Lucky on rec hockey nights. I'm to assume by the name that this will be of similar brew?

agreed, there is a long list of them, Rickards being the worst offender. There are so many excellent Micro or premium beers on the market to be distracted by this swill

Except Creemore Springs, probably because it didn't start out that way.

I just bought some at the liquor store in Tuscany.
I don't have any oranges but it seems to taste a lot like Rickards White.

It's probably good with a shot of cointreau.. just like Rickards White.

I liked it.
I like anything Keiths better than anything Rickards.

Pshhh... Wheats/Whites are the only real beers. They make up by far the majority of my beer drinking.
