THIS JOURNEY IS NOW COMPLETE! This was a challenge I undertook from Feb 2011 to Feb 2012. Thanks to everyone that kept me going! Feel free to read through and comment, I am now also periodically adding reviews here as I sample other beers that I did not come across during the challenge.

Moosehead
The humble moose. Kind of like a really juiced up deer.
Along with the beaver, probably the animal most synonymous with the nation of Canada. You think we have it bad hitting kangaroos in cars, try running in to one of these blokes without coming off second best.
This particular lager is definitely a grab at the widely popular Euro style lager, like Becks, Heineken etc... Thin watery body, but very crisp and clean. Terribly boring, but a beer you could buy in a slab with a bunch of mates while parked in front of some sport on the telly. Refreshing, and easy to drink.
The Canadian macro lagers I've had are lighter and crisper than the Aussie equivalent, which tend to be heavier and bigger on the malts. I'm not saying either is better than the other, but just a general observation.
An acceptable mainstream pale lager. Different to the Kokanee, but for a similar result. Can't really split them.
