Bottle. Pours a clear pale straw yellow body with a small fizzy white head that faded to a thin ring very quickly. The nose is pretty much just corn syrup sweetness and not a whole lot else. The flavor is pretty sad, a hefty dose of corn syrup sweetness with a wet soggy grain finish. No bitterness to speak of in any sense. Light bodied, super fizzy, and a bit sticky on the finish. This is even worse than I was expecting.

Pours clear light yellow. Tastes a lot like Miller High Life, especially the sweet corn aftertaste. Typical macro lager, not bad on a hot day.

Pours a clear pale yellow, with a thin head that quickly disipates. The aroma is of saw dust, skunky malts. Tasting notes include corn, cereal, metallic, with a very watery finish. Good beer for camping trips, but other than that this beer is alcoholic skunk water.

Bud Light From Canada, eh? Standard Marco brew. Pale yellow, minimal head, some lacing. Light sweet taste. No bitterness no hops. Tasteless, does not leave anything on palate or as an aftertaste. Might as well be drinking water. Best enjoyed if it falls into one of the following categories: Free or you are really desperate to quench your thirst and facing some tough choices. Pass it...

Labatt Blue is much better than any Bud or Miller product. With that said it is a simple pale lager that is mostly hopped and malted water. Yellow and clear on the pour. Corn and hay on the nose. Mild bitter finish.

Ahh, Canadian Beer. Color: clear golden yellow with foamy white head. Smell: slight fruity, hay, bready, sour. Taste: little sweetness and then the bread/yeasty flavor picks up. Aftertaste: short, with some light fruity/sweet notes. One of the better built macro brew beers.

Watery yellow, little to no head Smells like faint malt Taste is very faint, and watery

Labatt Blue is not that bad, I’ll go ahead a start out by saying that. As a pale lager it is head and shoulders above bud, coors, miller, and most any macro swill. It actually has some sort of a sweetness that comes through and seems to have more character than just yeast and corn. Does all this mean that Labatt Blue is a good beer? No, it’s not that good at all but it is manageable and I’ll say that if I need a cheap beer to pound while visiting the Great White North, I’ll probably go for this.

Bright clear golden yellow, foamy white head fades fast. Light fruity grainy malty aroma and taste. Average carbonation, light bodied, low hopped. Better than most mass produced CDN industrial swill. Refreshing and inoffensive. LF (Lagerboy Friendly)
