Description
Labatt has deep roots in Canada stemming from its founder John Kinder. In 1847, a little more than a decade after arriving in London, Ontario from Ireland, John Kinder Labatt purchased London's Simcoe Street brewery in partnership with Samuel Eccles and by 1855 had become the brewery's sole proprietor. The brewery was later renamed John Labatt's Brewery, marking the beginning of one of Canada's largest and most successful companies.

In 1995, it was purchased by Belgian brewer Interbrew. Labatt is now part of the new company, Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev).

After rating the Coors Slice Grapefruit, why not do it direct summer competition. Not filtered to the max with a bright light-golden colour, a creamyish cap, decent lasting and leaving thick creamy lace. Very sweet and fruity aromas of mangoes. Hints of coconut do come out a bit after pouring. In this one, the fake fruitiness is quite intense, and not hints like Slice are. Almost syrupy, too sweet, lingering and again showing some coconut in the background. Yeah, a little too much artificial fruitiness.

As good, complex, and deep as beer gets.

Somehow haven't rated this before now. Dry roast, creamy head and dry finish. Hint of old leather and some light bitter but. Black pour with great head and lacing.

341Bottle labelled Labatt Blue 0.5%, found at a local grocer. Corn and tin in the nose, pours like soda pop. Flavour is watery sweet corn, some soft wet bread. Lingering corn syrup. Did I mention the corn? Corn. Corn water.

Can: Poured a clear pale yellow color beer with a small white foamy head with limited retention or lacing. Aroma of fake strawberry syrup with cloying sweet notes also perceptible. Taste is a mix of fake syrupy notes of strawberry with some cloying sweet notes. Body is light with medium carbonation. This doesn’t taste like beer and is way too sweet for my taste.

Typical lager beer aroma. Flavor is lager and Pilsner with a sweet malt to start and tinny crispness at the end. Light and easy.

355ml can. Pours a crystal clear pale gold with a small, fizzy, short lived, off-white head that leaves spotty lacing. Faint aroma of grainy malt, corn and cardboard. Sweet flavour of grainy malt, corn, nail polish remover and slightly skunky hops. Light body with a thin, watery texture and average carbonation. Used to crush these in my underage drinking days. Lucky for me this was my last ever. Even for a macro, this was nasty.

Pours golden with a thin white head. Aroma of light floral malt. Taste has grassy malt, lightly hopped. Palate has lingering malt elements on the nose. Plain, not terrible.
