2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 hennes (932) - Fountain, Michigan, USA - SEP 13, 2001
I can’t tell if the marketing/packaging makes me slightly favor the green over the blue, or if I actually can taste a fuller, warmer malt presence. But this stuff is pretty prevalent in grocery stores around Michigan and a decent cheap six for a party or outdoor adventure.

3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 Gooner (136) - Chatham, Ontario, CANADA - SEP 2, 2001
If there’s no Molson ’Ex’ at the bar, I’ll grab a ’50’. Very similar to Sleeman’s ’Cream Ale’ and Molson’s ’Ex’. Enjoyable.

Beer snobs (i.e., people who only drink six-syllable German porters brewed by Trappist monks) might knock it, but 50 is one of the best mass-produced beers available in North America. It’s a great hoppy ale for people who like good beer, but also like to drink a lot of beer.

As my Labatt 50 drinking friend once said,
’If I drank something else, I might like it too
much and become an alcoholic’
1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 4/20 Oakes (10202) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - NOV 28, 2000
Ultra-bland golden ale, a perfect complement to Labatt’s line of ultra-bland golden lagers.
