1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 3/20
Yellow clear body with a fast disappearing head. Chemical aroma that feels like corn. The first mouthfull brought the unpleasant impression of water with a dead body in it. Truly a disgusting product. An industrial beer made by people who don’t know beer, for people who don’t like it.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
341 ml bottle. Clear gold, largish frothy head that dies very quickly...very light, reasonably fresh grassy nose....body very clean, no taste of adjuncts or metal as I’d suspected would disturb it, though there’s not a lot of pale malt and virtually no hops either. Basically this is clean, refreshing, medium sweet-dry balance, very boring but easy to drink ice-cold on a very hot night, which this is. So I’m kinda liking it, for the moment and am scoring it thus. You could do worse, and most Canadians and Americans usually do...

Decent beer. Better than mass market lagers, but no match for microbrews. Relatively cheap.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
2005 bottle provided by and shared with clarkvv 4/29/2005: Pale golden yellow with a fizzy white head that quickly fades. Aroma is sweet corn, vanilla, medicine, band-aid. Flavor: holy crap, I’m getting a tiny bit of grassy hops here!, grans, sweet malt, light alcohol, and cardboard. Light bodied and highly carbonated.

Golden yellow with white foamy head. Very crisp, refreshing. Pours with much head which dissipates rather quickly. bubbly and quite carbonated.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
This semmed to be popular with the Ontario- French when I was young. Tried it again recently Much better with a mature and seasoned palate. Still a good ale.
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Decided to give this one a shot because of a $1.00 price tag for a single. I guess I got my money’s worth. Pours a clear golden color with mild bubbles. Medium thin white head and minimal lacing. The aroma is vaguely sweet with nothing really distinguishing itself. Light-bodied with a pretty bland flavor of mild hops and sweet corn. Luckily nothing offensive in there. The finish is crisp, dry and pretty much flavorless aside from the faintest hops bitterness. All said, it’s a Labatt by any other name.
