XO is a pilsner-styler lager with a light body and golden colour. It has a long-lasting, creamy head and a full, rich flavour. Its clean, crisp, well-defined finish is due to the finest Saaz hops from the Czech Republic. It might just be the most authentic pilsner you've ever tasted.

[3] Review by mmmmBeer from Edmonton, Canada who has tried this beer once. (9/21/2007 3:34:11 PM)
"Brew looks crystal clear and very light gold, minimal cap that did leave behind some lacing. Aroma had a smooth sourness to it and the typical apple from the Czech style hops. Taste hit the style right on, they proclaim this to be a Czech style pilsner and they got it, dark but light tasting malt, apple style hops, and a sweet bready finish. Brew is very drinkable but there are so many other beers I’d rather drink."

[4] Review by beercronic from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada who has tried this beer once. (8/15/2007 2:59:34 AM)
"Quickly: Standard gold with some white cap , ring left over, no lacing. Taste: grain, grass, barley, minimal sweetness. Aroma: Some stink (minor), mild, pee, grass. Smells rank near quarter full glass. Mouthfeel: not smooth, not rough, light bodied, almost over carbonated, weak dry flavourless aftertaste, touch of bitterness. Average barely. Did this even come out in bottles? That's a bad sign."

"My new favourite swill,a nd Big rock's best. Great classic prairie pilsner. I'm gonna lament when this 6 pack is gone. Equally as great out of the can as out of the glass."
