Canadians don't drink beer--they drink lager. From: https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/433/1312/#:~:text=On%20the%20tongue%2C%20Molson%20Canadian,accentuating%20Molson's%20basic%20refreshing%20qualities.

"Aromas of sweet corn up front, supported by pale, biscuit malts lending their own sort of sweetness to the profile. The nose seems to thin out at this point, giving a sort of generic dried graininess combined with a musty, dusty quality like an abandoned, dust filled room. Only there for a second, and then gone. Finish gives the barest, briefest hint of grassy, leafy hops before fading into the background."

"On the tongue, Molson Canadian is smooth and rounded, with an up front sweetness. Sweetness is fairly generic to start but soon tastes like creamed corn. Roundness builds slightly in the center, accentuating Molson's basic refreshing qualities. That rounded quality blends with a more generic sweetness held up by generic pale malts to give a profile that is surprisingly balanced and refreshing."

Creamed corn! Abandoned, dust filled room! Grassy, leafy hops!
