Pours clear yellow with slight fizzy white head. Aroma is stale corn. Flavor basically sweet watery lager with bit of sickly sweet honey. Not good.

Pours a medium golden yellow color. Aromas of corn, hops, and a touch of sweetness. Flavors is typical lager with a hint of sweetness. Doesn’t really do anything for the beer.

Bottle. Poured clear gold. I was slightly surprised as this tastes better than a macro with artificial honey flavors. Slightly malty. Decent mouthfeel. Pretty average overall.

Well I don’t know that leaving out preservatives and adding what smells like honey candy makes a good beer. It seems like an overlay of flavors on a low quality lager. The appearance is pale gold and the flavor sweet and malty in a corn like way. The palate is watery and the hops are well hidden either by design or accident.

10/16/2008: Labatt Honey Lager has a sweet grainy and pale malty aroma. The color is clear gold with a small, foamy, off-white head. The flavor is also sweet with a slightly carmelized maltiness, but there isn’t really any honey or anything else besides a slightly dry finish. It has a medium-light body that has no memorable characteristics. Overall this beer could really be easy mistaken for any other macro lager.

340 ml/11.5 fl. oz. twist-off bottle (B04L81 0233) from 6-pack purchased from Kroger in Gahanna, Ohio. Rating #46 for this beer...

Bottle 340 ml
Appearance: Clear , highly carbonated brew. Amber gold with large fruity , bright top. 3-
Nose: Dusty ,sweet caramel with crystallized honey like aroma. Fain hop follow up.
Flavor/Palate : medium bodied with smooth clean texture. Mild with honey sweetness, slight bitter hopping at finish. Straightforward clean. Surprisingly decent offering from Labatt.
Earlier Rating: 3/5/2006 Total Score: 2
Trade with Lafo-o . Pale golden lager with expected sugar honey sweetness. Fairly clean inoffensive body, medium high carbonation, honey quality was basic but this is discount beer niche so ... pale malt behind. Solid for manufactured beer.
