Labatt Genuine Honey

Brewed by Labatt Breweries (InBev)
Style: American Dark Lager
London, Canada

Not good, but not too offensive. Light bodied and typical for a pale lager. A little bit of honey sweetness in the finish. Slightly better than the other labatts.

Bottle from sample pack at Pat’s. Pale gold pour with aroma of pale malt, mild honey and hopcitrus. Watery palate with mid-palate hopcitrus and not much honey flavor, but a fairly crisp finish. I wouldn’t buy this again, but I probably wouldn’t turn it down if someone bought me one at a bar.

Bottle in sampler from Sam’s. Poured hazy golden color with a moderate white frothy head that mostly diminished with fair lacing. Moderate grassy sweet aroma. Medium body with lively carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a sweet finish of moderate duration. This was a drinkable beer.

Slight off aroma when you twist off the less than 12 oz bottle cap. Ubiquitous pale yellow american lager color and appearance. Clears to a more honey olfactory in the glass. Taste is rather friendly at first but respectfully turns into a hintingly more unrefined lager sensation. Decent carbonation during the session. A variation on Labatts that is somewhat cloying. Seems to be more alky than 5%. Finish leaves a mildly sweet odd aftertaste. Not too bad.

Pours a medium copper color with a large but quickly fading head. Nice carbonation and bubbles are showering to the top. I think it a great looking pour. Aroma is sweet malts, corn, light hops. Flavor is bigger on the corn and wheat. Also light tart malts and citrus. Overall it is pretty decent. Crisp and refreshing.

Poured from a bottle. From a sampler pack. Sweet, clean flavor with decent carbonation. Average beer at best. Decent, but not great.

11.5 Oz bottle from the Labatt Variety pack. I thought (or hoped) this would be alot better than it actually was... The aroma is just plain beer. The taste is strange - just a hint of honey, but not really that much flavor at all.

Bottle. From sampler pack. Copper color, cloudy. OK. Not much flavor, though a bit of sweetness comes at the end.
