Red Cap by Brick

This week's beer of the week is Red Cap, by Brick breweries in Waterloo, Ontario.

For some reason I seem to remember Red Cap being brewed by Carling, but Carling breweries is long gone (swallowed up by Molson). Anyway, I decided to try out a red cap with my beer of the week buddies and here is the result.

A typically Canadian beer, a bit heavier than American, but lighter than most German. I found Red Cap to be quite similar to Molson Export or Molson 50. I had no trouble finishing it and would drink it again if offered, but not my first choice on any given day.

I prefer other offerings from Brick breweries, including Waterloo Dark and the new Waterloo Wheat beer.
