COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Fresh, smooth taste coupled with pronounced hop character distinguishes it from other lagers. Editor's note: Used to be called "Genuine Draft" but they've dropped the "Draft".

A solid beer from Labatt, nothing stands out (yellow golden appearance, white foam head, a slight malt flavour and scent) but nothing to really complain about either.

A fair attempt at creating a discount version of premium macro lagers. That said, the price sould be more in line with Lakeport, Carling, etc.

A nice drinking beer from Labatt. Yeasty aroma and malty hops finish. Goes great with a bag of Spitz at a ball game.

Is this supposed to be, who is this for, its just like any other cheap pale lager, don’t we have enough of this stuff already, better then most I’ve tried, but big deal, on sale or not, it ain’t a big deal.

Crisp, clean taste. I don’t mind crisp but I am not looking for clean. I want malt and hops sticking to my taste buds and littering my tongue with flavourful debris. Smooth enough and eassy drinking. There is some light flavour and it can chase down food, I guess. Nothing inspiring.

Pale golden, white fast dissipating head. Pale malt aroma, slightly sweet. Flavour is sweet up front with a very thin body. Very metallic finish. Poor and unpleasant.

Hmm, better than I thought, but not great. GOld body, lots of carbonation, but weird, cause there’s no head....gio figure. Aroma is corn, hops, and some chemicals. Seems Ive been saying that a lot! Taste is semi sweet, corny, cereal, and grains. Bubbly mouthfeel, biterafterteste, followed by a chemical taste.
