12 oz bottle from LooseCannon. Clear, bubbly, liht gold with a fizzy white head that disappears quickly. Sweet, grainy, corny nose, a bit of floral hop. Bland, grainy corn flavor. A resounding "meh". Yet another crappy macro.

I’m rating it just because I want to get as many rated beers as possible. This isn’t good beer at all, doesn’t have any flavor, feels like your downing a mix of corn and urine. Really not enjoyable to drink.

Again this one is only marginally better than other macro swill, but I would only drink it when there are really no other good options.

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

for some reason everyone in Peterborough drinks this beer. Must be because it’s ghetto taste matches the ghetteo city. Iit smells like pee, and tastes much the same. The onlything I can say about it is that it has about the right amount of carbination, and is good for peanut races.

This is definately the worst beer I have ever tried here in Canada. I gagged and almost puked off the first drink.

I searched for the US-issue Labatt Canadian Ale and was redirected to Labatt 50, so I hope I’m reviewing the same beer. Good for a macro, though I’m not sure I’m with everyone who says it is both fruity and dry, or that highly carbonated. Granted, I like it how it is, and it does have a hint of frutiness, and I don’t like too much carbonation. Could certainly use more hop bitterness. My usual comparison for macros is to Budweiser, and I must say I freatly prefer this to Bud. Doesn’t taste like metal or stale at all, unlike Bud. Pretty fair overall, but lacking enough flavor ot be a really good ale. Certainl;y worth a try if you’ve never had it.

Atleast it’s a ale. Shit, but of all ths shit avalible in shit bars, this shit is best. Bright yellow color, soda like white head, gone in a second. Almost has flavour, malt and corn, but 1/2 second on the tonge and it’s taste gone. Dry, very dry for an ale. No aftertaste. An ale trying to be a pilsner. If you’re in montreal and the choices are "Blue/Dry, Molson dry/export, budwiser and 50," go for 50. Just say "SANKANT"
