    Yes it’s a really nice blend. Close to Red Breast re: taste

    The Roe and Co whiskey is a great price. What whiskey does it compare with. I see it has honey vanilla and fruit notes so Is it like a Crested?

    I'd compare it with Bushmills 10 in terms of smoothness.

    Both are my go to regular sips.

    Buy drinks in 3L or bigger plastic bottles or glass bottles or cartons to avoid the DRS fee.

    It's a nice light easy drinking beer.
    Best to buy one or two first before investing in a case.

    A lot nicer than Heineken, no preservatives and doesn't have that aftertaste that Heineken does.

    Very nice from the fridge.

    I don't like much, and know others who don't, and I do not consider myself fussy. I would rather have the carling.

    Tesco

    24 cans heineken for 26 euros or 20 bottles for 16 euro.

    edit: I think that would make the cans slightly cheaper per litre.

    Canadian is as ****e as most of the craft stuff on the market.

    Heineken is the best of them to be fair.24 for 26 in tesco. Fairly decent value.

    Good man better to be safe than sorry.

    I honestly think it's far nicer than Heineken but I'm obviously in the minority.

    If you like Bud Light or Coors then you will like Canadian; it's in that sort of category. Personally I find it very bland, other people love it, but it's that type of beer. Each to their own.

    A great wedding drink. That or Guinness, low alcohol drink 15 pints and still be able to stand up straight. Session beer at its best.
