Labatt Lite
4.0% Alc/Volume
Brewed by Labatt in Canada
Style: Lite Lager
Appearance - After pouring the beer into a glass beer mug I noticed it was a pale
straw yellow color. It had decent head which slowly worked down
to no remaining foam. The beer itself did not look very inviting.
Score 2/5
Taste- The initial taste of Labatt Lite is very clean. It didn't have a strong beer
taste or much of anything really.
Score 2/5
Mouthfeel- The beer is very light. ( must be a pun on the name?) The carbonation
is strong and adds to the lightness. No aftertaste or beer bitterness.
Nothing unique about the flavor, might even seem a little watered
down.
Score 3/5
Beer Type- Light Lagers are meant to have low flavor, be light clean and bubbly.
With those characteristics in mind it does fit the characterizations of
a lite lager.
Score 4/5
Drinkability- Sitting in the hot sun or after a long day of work these brews would
go down easy and be very refreshing. The cost is middle of the road
and reasonable. I myself would not care to drink these beer for their
flavor but for the fact that they are very easy to drink.
Score 4/5
Scoring 15/25 Not the best beer in the world but not the worst for sure.
You could do a lot worse!

Beer Review Guide
First off I will explain the process of the beer review.
Each beer will be reviewed with five things in mind
1. Appearance - When poured into a glass what does the beer look like? Its
color, head and its general drinking appeal. There will be an
extra point rewarded for uniqueness of label or bottle.
Scored out of 5 Points
2. Taste - This is basically the first sip of beer. It includes initial reaction and
smell. Is the beer's taste pleasant or overpowering?
Scored out of 5 Points
3. Mouth feel - The second and larger drink of beer. the beer is aloud to spend
some time on the tongue. It takes in all aspects of the beer.
Bitterness, flavor, aftertaste,weight and carbonation.
Scored out of 5 Points
4.Beer Type - This is the true quality of the beer. Does it match the guidelines for
its type of beer. Does it vary from its type in a way that is good
or bad?
Scored out of 5 Points.
5. Drink-ability - Is the beer easy to drink? When would be best to enjoy the
beer? How does the beer's cost factor into the beer. Does the
flavor increase the beers drink-ability? Most importantly, would
you drink the beer again?
Scored out of 5 Points.
Scoring 0-10 This one is one you should avoid at all cost no matter the price.
11-15 Not the best beer in the world but not the worst for sure.
You could do a lot worse!
16-19 Slightly better beer than average. It would be one i would try in larger
quantities, like at the lake or a sporting event.
20-24 These beer are worth the cost.(probably because they are
expensive. Good to share and drink for flavor.
25 If this beer exists I would recommend not sharing, and having
a small stash stowed away for the next time you really need
to celebrate.
