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).

A golden beer with a fast disappearing head. The aroma is sour as if it has been brewed on brewing cereal - but the label doesn''t tell. The flavor is very Ice - like; smooth, sweet and only slightly bitter. A very drinkable and refreshing beer - but not a special treat.

Yellow gold, large but fading head. Light haze. Some buttery pale palt with a slight aroma of herbal and spicy hops. Straightforward and clean, with med malt flavor and a good dosing of spicy hop flavors. Finish only lightly bitter. Surprisingly not bland or watery, but still rather middle of the road in all respects.

MartinT says: Tractor explodes in wilted corn field. Burning rubber, gasoline, the crickets are suffering...

Stephen Beaumont says: An indelicate lager of dubious lineage. Notes of sweet canned corn, Petro Canada 91 octane Silver, with unfaint notes of stinging alcohol, leading to a finish not unlike snow peas left in the sun for three, no, make that four days.

Michael Jackson says: A potent, uniquely balanced grainy malt liquor (though it is neither malty, nor a liquor).

Oakes says: What self-respecting wino is going to wait until he begs up $4 for a forty of this ass juice when he can get a half-litre of Crest Super for $2.10? Stupifying buffoonery.

i dont know what to think about this. very confusing taste. rather offensive. tastes like a good skunked beer. not sure what they are trying to do with this one. . .
Rerate. It’s scary that I’ve already had this. Aroma of sweet, honey malt, corn flowers, minerals, hay, grass. Flavor of grassy hops, bits of malt, dusty cardboard, xerox paper. The fact that you can just barely taste hops is impressive, in an ironic way. Looks about the same as any pale lager macro, yellow, fizzy white head. . .

i like this beer in bottles. tastes good to me for some reason. Cereal grains are masked by the lightness. Not quite as crisp as id like. Good for 5.99 12 pack and much better than natty or busch. still a bad beer by all means though.
