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).

473ml single can that pours a clean, light golden-yellow colour, a frothy white cap, decent stay leaving a little ring around the base. Strawberry essence fruitiness for the nose with hints of cherries and lemonade. Refreshing crisp mouthfeel with a tad tart. Fruity flavours with the strawberry-cherry taste and light lemonade. Does the job it should and not bad at 4% ABV, for this hot spring day.

355ml can. Pours a crystal clear straw colour with a small, fizzy, short lived, white head that fully dissipates. Faint aroma of grainy malt and corn. Sweet flavour of corn and faint grassy hops in a clean, dry finish. Light body with a thin, watery texture and average carbonation. Just crushed this after cutting the grass in the hot sun, so a good lawnmower beer. Other than that, a typical macro... bland, boring and flavourless.

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, bottled on 6/12/2019. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a small fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of white bread dough, corn, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Okay aromas with clean pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop notes; with minimal strength. Taste of cracker, white bread dough, light corn, wood, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light herbal, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, light corn, wood, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no astringent hop flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with no fruity/yeasty notes. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness and carbonation. medium-plus carbonation and light body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Overall this is a very good non alcoholic pilsner style. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mellowly bitter/drying finish. Flavorful and not too watery. Great clean pils malt/grain showcase, with solid earthy hop presence for the style. Mild on adjuncts. A very enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example considering the 50 calories. Also has no NA off flavors or astringency.

Can from The Davis Beer Shoppe. Pours Clear bright gold with a large white head. Bready aroma; hint of spice. Near med body. Flavor is bready with enough Noble spice to notice. More bitter than many pale lagers. I call it better than Corona.

Has big solid foam on a heavily carbonated gold body, smells like wet sugar and bread crumbs. Flavour is wet breadcrumbs with sweet caramel and tin on the back end. Full enough mouthfeel. There are certainly worse low alcohols out there, this one's passable.
