not nearly as filling as blue, which is a good thing, cleaner taste, had two after fertilizing the lawn this evening, so my ratings may be biased due to my exertion.

Bottle. Small white head that mostly diminished with very little lacing, transparent, visible carbonation, and a yellow hue. The nose was light hops and malt and a tad skunky. Flavor was light hops and malt. Woo-hoo. Not! Fairly smooth mouthfeel and light-medium body. IMO absolutely nothing special about this beer whatsoever. It definitely did not wow me by any means and therefore I have no interest in having this one again.

As products from mega-breweries go, this one isn’t bad at all. The pour is not-quite-clear golden, with a large white head. Aroma is malt...and lots of it. Taste is as malty as the aroma with just a bit of sweet malt in the background. Finishes relatively clean. Biggest draw back is that the actual flavor is a bid subdued and lacks depth. Not amazing, but like I said...as offerings from major brewers go, this one’s pretty good.

as far as plae lagers go, this actually has some flavour! Imagine that! Some sweet malt notes, and a touch of hops, dont get me wrong, it’s still a Labatt product, and thats abundantly clear, but it’s not bad, and drinkable.

Pours a slightly hazy yellow-gold with a bright white head of fairly large bubbles. The head did not last very long, but left a nice lace on the glass. Of the 4 beers in the sampler case I bought, this is the onl yone that had a noticible aroma - and a decent one for a megabrew. Sweet malt was there, with some hops, by golly! Advertised as an all-malt beer, I believe it. A nice beer.

Nothing much to say really. Got this form a friend who works at a distributer, thanks Chris! I kind of like Regular Labatts but this? Not overly bad just weak, ting of hops and watery grass. Moving on!

Laudable effort by Labatt--much better than the usual swill. I only wish it were available here in Cleveland, besides Blue, Blue lt., and Ice. I got it in the heritage Sampler Pack. 50 is decent, Classic is a bit better--the Honey lager is sickeningly sweet and tasteless. Blue is Blue.

Honey malts with a slight citrus aroma. Pours blonde with a thick white head. Honey lager malts, crisp lager flavor, with a little hop bite. Nothing special, but good for Labatt’s.
