Crafted in the centuries-old tradition of using extra malt and hops, then maturing over time to craft a rich, full bodied lager, with an extremely smooth finish

"Crap what a rip off the only reason I bought this brew was I thought it would be a eisbock, it turns out to be just a crap lager. STUPID FALSE ADVERTIZING. Brew appears very pale yellowy brown with the standard lager cap. Sweet metallic, grainy aroma with a slight hop bite. Dam I’m almost upset I don’t hate the smell I was looking forward to hating this but I don’t really. Metallic hop flavor with a grain/grass malt presence with corn for sweetness. I’m detecting a unpleasant alcohol/chemical flavor in the finish. Now that the beer is starting to warm its becoming crappy. When warm the flavor seems to have gotten watered down and begins to taste like a more stereo typical American lager with slightly more alcohol. I guess this is ok for the style which is to bad cause I really wanted to hate this one. My mark seems to high but I have no intention to ever re-review this again."

"Another bad beer that bears the Yankee Jim badge. There seems to be a lot of bad beers that bear this name. It looks like a typical North American pale lager and in some ways tastes as bad as most North American pale lagers. Sadly, it may have the best taste of any of the Yankee Jim beers."

[3] Review by Chopz from Cantley, Canada who has tried this beer once. (5/8/2008 12:59:26 AM)
"Pours a golden-yellow colour with a frothy white head that is pretty big, and stays a little while. Not much carbonation and even the mouthfeel feels flat. I can just barely make a little burp (s'cuse me). Can't really feel any alcohol, except for the buzz. Mild malty nose and grain really shows up in the aftertaste. Nothing really bad here, just a decent swill to get shitfaced."

[5] Review by cyrenaica from Milton, Ontario, Canada who has tried this beer once. (12/23/2007 2:06:04 PM)
"473ml can
6.5% ABV
I tried this beer on December 23, 2007 after purchasing from my local LCBO outlet. The beer poured a translucent gold colour with a generous white fluffy head which quickly disippated after pouring was complete. The aroma was vomit, pure unadulterated vomit. Had I not poured this myself, I don;t think I would have drank it. The mouthfeel was medium bodied, mild carbonation. The taste was better than the aroma. There was a definite hoppy taste. It was a very easy drinking beer, went down well."
