Labatt Blue De-Alcoholized Pilsener

Brewed by Labatt Breweries (InBev)
Style: Low Alcohol
London, Canada

I have loved Labatt blue since I can remember.I believe there is no other beers that can aquire a taste, texture and pleasantness like Blue. Any blue, whether 5% alcohol or de-alcoholized is just out of this world. Labatt, Keep brewing the " GOOD STUF "

Finally a real great non-alcoholic beer. I hope Labatt keeps this one around. A little improving to do but just the fact that I can drink a Labatt Blue pilsener is awesome!!!

Much better than it’s predecessor, nodic. Crisp, clean taste, and goes down smooth, but must be consumed COLD, once it warms a little the beer becomes bitter. Faint hop aroma and good mouth feel. a very good NA

11.2 oz brown glass twist-top bottle. No date...kinda concerning for an NA beer. Quick review. Thin and lightly carbonated. Tastes A LOT like corn cereal and corn chips. Has this toasted yellow corn flavor and no finish. Moderately sweet. Not good. Would prefer to drink a German or Dutch NA beer.

From a 340 ml. bottle. Six-pack no. 62067 00972. Pours pale yellow with lively carbonation and an amazing amount of puffy white head for an N/A. Smells a tad malty and also grassy. Watered down and thin in the mouth but as far as N/A’s go, not repulsive. This replaces their Nordic N/A and it is a bit better than that one was. It does tend to leave an aftertaste.

2008-04-10. Very pale yellow, small white head fades. Aroma of wet grass, dilute grains, muted creamed corn/buttery notes. Thin flavour, lightly vegetal grainy sweet notes. Wonky. Thin palate. Sometimes, I wonder if it’s really worth rating these things... then Harry goes ahead and brings the ruckus to the sink, spouting off about infant excrement and what not, and I think to myself. "That’s two independent thought alarms in one day. Clearly the children are over-stimulated - Remove all the colored chalk from the classrooms!" Seriously that’s what I thought.

Bottle (sample) at the Canadian Restaurant and Foodservices Association 2008 trade fair. This stuff is even less of a “pilsener” than the real Blue. Very pale yellow colour - almost clear, really - with a small white head. Extremely unpleasant corn syrup character in both the aroma and flavour, and not even a faint hint of hops in the finish to balance the sweetness, making it a completely unrefreshing beverage. It’s brews like this one that give non-alcoholic beers such a bad reputation.

Bottle (341ml) shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev, jerc & mabel -- courtesy of tupalev & MrManning. Pours a very pale yellow with an average size white head. Aroma of dog excrement. Not an exaggeration, I have a dog, I know. Dear God that smells awful. Flavour’s a tiny bit better, there’s less dog shit but it’s still watery, grainy and full of crap. This is sooo awful, I’m wondering if I rated it too high? i wish I could joke about it but it’s just too unpleasant. Can no one make a good de-alcoholized beer?
