NO. Dont even waste your time looking.
This is the best way I can describe the taste of kokanee. 1) Take an OK-average beer 2) pour it really poorly so its mostly head 3) skim off the head into a big vat 4) let the head settle 5) Bottle it as kokanee 6) ??? 7) Profit! It seriously tastes like the gross head of some other discount beer, which was then stored in a metal vat that gave it a slight, tiny hint of metal flavouring. Not good at all in my eyes, or anyone I know here. |

What about Stella, Keiths..heck, even MGD. All miles and miles ahead of kokanee. Even Canadian is better. |

If you're gonna drink Stella, drink it bottled. Keiths... Mmm. Chewp, some day we've gotta figure out a way to meet up and put some pints down the hatch. We have similar tastes in beer. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

Remember: Bottle. That's the only way to be sure you're getting 'real' Belgian Stella. Ironically, in Europe Stella is considered junk beer. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

| Thats cause it's europe and they have even better beer available. Stella in a bottle is great, I've got at least 4 in my fridge right now, and 4 keiths. |

| Again, thats a terrible standard for beer. There are tons of beers out there that are "not too heavy", kokanee should hardly be considered decent because of that fact. |

Lucky is the skunk of big named lagers. A fellow paintballer at the paintball fieild in med school was telling me about the amount of carbs in lucky lager. The carbs in one can of lucky is equal to one loaf of white wonder bread. Lucky is one of the worst beers but people around here drink it because its a fad of drinking crappy beer. ------------- [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/anthonymartinez/402cdjo-1.gif"> |

You need to drive into Toronto in July, then you can drink with Choop, myself and a variety of others. There might be a cigar in it for you aswell. -------------

I'm ashamed that lucky is brewed on the island I live on. Frog- its funny how you don't like labbats but you like lucky. Lucky is made by labbats. ------------- [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v291/anthonymartinez/402cdjo-1.gif"> |
