COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Labatt Select is brewed to be light, and has a unique taste with only 99 calories per bottle and 4.2% alcohol by volume. Fermented longer at lower temperatures to give a smooth, clean taste, Select uses unique North American aromatic hops that impart a delicate flavour and aroma. Lightly roasted specialty malt contributes to the overall body and balance of this unique product, providing a delicate hop aroma and flavour that is complemented by a soft finish.

Bottle. Small white head that was mostly lasting, fine-small sized bubbles, sparse lacing, carbonated, transparent, and a yellow hue. Aroma was malty and very skunky. Yucko. Malty and some hops in the flavor. Tingly palate. Not recommended.

I guess for low carb it isn’t bad but.. Pours a nice yellow with a head that disappears in seconds. Way over-carbonated, which distracted from the taste.

Ron (1574) - Rochester, New York, USA - FEB 9, 2005
This came in a variety pack so I had to try it. Otherwise stay away from this one. Poured golden yellow with a good amount of head. Thin sweet flavor was disgusting. Maybe someone on a low carb diet would drink it, but no one else.

Pailhead (3326) - Plymouth, Michigan, USA - JAN 31, 2005
Bottle: Aroma is rather sweet with lots of corn. Pours a transparent gold (actually more gold than their standard beers) with a quickly diminishing white head. Tastes like a low carb beer with sugar in it. Can be sugar though, must be sucrulose. No real hops at all. Just sweet from start to finish. You could do worse for a low carb beer.

Darkover (1440) - Columbus, Ohio, USA - JAN 25, 2005
My first low carb beer. Very bubbley yellow color with a small white head. Corn aroma and flavor. Strong carbonation.

kujo9 (1085) - North Ridgeville, Ohio, USA - JAN 23, 2005
Bottle, from a holiday case, very cold, then it warmed. Only slightly more flavorful than water! Seriously! I can’t think of anything creative or constructive to say about this one!

why do they put this in the mixer pack, actually it wasn’t too bad although I wouldn’t drink too many of them, could’ve tasted worse.

gjamieson (80) - Canton, Georgia, USA - DEC 31, 2004
11.5 oz bottle: Typical soap-bubble head, no retention. No aroma whatsoever. Color was very pale yellow, lots of bubbles. Faint taste of stinking corn, no hops or malt. When the carbs are sucked out of beer, so is the flavor. Pisssssssssssssssssssssss.
