Basically it's Labatt Blue with a green label. Clean and crisp, not much to it. Nothing really that bad about it either though.

Pale gold in colour. Aroma of corn and grain. Corn seems to dominate the flavour, making this really hard to swallow. Just an all around horrible beer.

Faint hint of hops in the aroma. Light gold in color with a large but shrinking head fo large bubbles. A clean crisp beer with no aftertaste. An ale you would never guess. Sure tastes and looks like an American Standard Lager. Better than Molson Export as these blond "ales" go. I could definately pound a lot of these in a hurry.

Light yellow colour. Big head. No aroma. Taste of bitter hops and cardboard aftertaste. Not very nice.

Not exceptionally bad. Crisp and lightly hoppy. I prefer loads more character but there's nothing WRONG with this one.

Cereal nose, especially corn. Bitterness and more bitterness is all there is, bitter aftertaste that you don't want to keep.

Nice straw color. Pleasant nose. Lively. A bit of hops and malt combine to make a very unremarkable yet drinkable brew. Won't buy again though.

I bought this beer camping near a small town with a smaller beer selection. This was the beer I used to drink when I still had to find older friends to buy it. So I say to myself "Man, I haven't had '50' in years" Well, after I cracked that first one I remember why I stopped drinking it. It left an aftertaste that I couldn't get rid of. Awful stuff.
