From the Magnotta Brewey in Vaughn, Ontario comes True North Blonde Lager, a sparkling straw coloured brew topped with a crown of fluffy white head. TNBL is sold in 341mL bottles and contains the standard 5% alcohol.
There is a fairly sweet, malt forward aroma that contains some grassy notes. TNBL has a crisp mouthfeel. It as a sweet, grainy initial taste and is slightly toasty with a moderately bitter backbone.
True North Blonde Lager is delightfully affordable. For the price, it's a reasonably reliable Ontario lager. Cheap and enjoyable do not always go well together, but in this case they seem to. The brew might not knock your socks off, but it won't let you down either.
Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
