Lakeport Strong

Brewed by Lakeport (Labatt - InBev)
Style: Pale Lager
Hamilton, Canada

Bottle from the LCBO. Pale bright golden with a medium white head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is not unpleasant - mild malt, perhaps a bit of sweet corn, hell, even a hint of hops! Mouthfeel is a bit sticky, but not bad. Flavour - holy crap, is that sweet! Like someone took a mediocre pale lager and laced it with corn syrup. Which is sort of how this stuff is made, I guess. Not my drink of choice, but those looking for a cheap buzz could do much worse...

Bottle: Poured a pale yellowlager with a goiod size foamy head with minimal retention and no lacing. Aroma consists of loads of adjunct. Taste is also dominated by adjunct with some gross sweetness and some alcohol ester. This is worse then I had anticipated – beer to get drunk cheaply to I guess.

As far as strong beers go, very cheap, reminds me of a watered down black ice. Very chuggable, very drinkable, a nice cheap alternative.

bottle. pours golden/yellow with quick white head. smells like beer and alcohol with a bit of metal. tatses unbalanced and underbrewed. lakeport is my favorite value brewer but this beer has nothing to do with it

Easy drinking taste for a 5.9%. Lots of corn and hops. Taste can be very stale at times, overall a good value buy if your going lakeport.

Bottle. Boring gold body with heavy carbonation and diminishing white bubbly head. Its watery aroma carries corny and CO2 notes. Flavors and aftertaste are almost non existent. Useless.

Grainy vegetable aroma. Clear golden body with small white that disappears leaving it very still and unappealing. Sweet flavour has some more boiled vegetables. Light and watery with strong carbonation that does not last well at all. Entered from notes.

Bottle (341ml). Poured hazy light gold with a white soapy head. Aroma’s not bad - actual malt, not too vegetal, some stale hops, a little metallic and sugary though, and sours on warming. More like corn syrup than corn mash. Taste is sweet but not too harsh, some metallic hoppy bitterness, not good but I won’t pour it off, surprisingly. Mouthfeel is carbonated and yes, I can taste the alcohol. Who’d have thought it - a drinkable Lakeport!
