My nearby grocery store had a sale on this, so I grabbed it for the sole purpose of reviewing it on here. It pours a dark yellow with damn near no head. The smell is very one dimensional - it just smells of sweet malt. The taste, admittedly, tastes watered down. Considering this is a non-alcoholic beer, that is pretty unsurprising. The taste is decent however, pleasantly sweet with just a bit of hoppy bitterness, but not much, and certainly not for a pilsner. It feels pretty good in the mouth - a little bit of residual numbness and a good amount of carbonation that doesn't leave you feeling gassy in your stomach.

This isn't a beer - it's a barley pop, although the taste is fine if you want something refreshing without getting wasted, or if you just don't drink. I'll admit - the next time I'm the designated driver, I'll ask the bartender if they have a couple bottles of this lying around.

I feel like I'm rating a little high, but for the style of beer (NA), it's a fine product.

I have been drinking NA for over & years and have tried many different kinds. Labatt Blue NA is one of my favorites and very refreshing. Just wish it was available in my area

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, bottled on 6/12/2019. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a small fairly dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a thin cap that lingers. Light spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a light amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of white bread dough, corn, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Okay aromas with clean pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop notes; with minimal strength. Taste of cracker, white bread dough, light corn, wood, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness. Light herbal, woody, grassy, peppery bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of cracker, white bread dough, light corn, wood, pepper, and herbal/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and no astringent hop flavors after the finish. Moderately crisp/clean finishing. Perfectly clean on lager flavors, with no fruity/yeasty notes. Moderate increasing dryness from lingering bitterness and carbonation. medium-plus carbonation and light body; with a very smooth and moderately bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Overall this is a very good non alcoholic pilsner style. All around nice robustness and balance of pale malt/grains, and light earthy hop flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink with the mellowly bitter/drying finish. Flavorful and not too watery. Great clean pils malt/grain showcase, with solid earthy hop presence for the style. Mild on adjuncts. A very enjoyable offering, and outstanding style example considering the 50 calories. Also has no NA off flavors or astringency.

Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a dark golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is very mild, some malts. Taste is of malts, grains, about the same flavor profile as most light beers. Feels light bodied in the mouth and overall is mediocre, but not bad, considering the abv, it's more "beer like" than I expected.

This is my absolute favorite NA beer. In the summer months I keep my fridge well stocked with these beauties with a few Clausthalers thrown in for the times when I want more flavor character. Labatt Blue NA comes closest to a real beer taste, fresh and clean with just a enough body and none of the skunky flavors most other NAs suffer from. Great job Labatt!

Best-tasting NA beer I have found. No bitterness or nasty aftertaste. In the glass it looks like a regular Pilsener. Smell? I don't sniff my beer before drinking it. At 50 calories per 12 oz. serving it doesn't hit the waistline very hard. I just discovered it in a restaurant in the Buffalo, NY area. Now I just have to find it in a store here inside the Beltway.

Watery ness is minimized when really cold. High carbonation, slightly watery, but not too bad, but nice hoppy taste.

Just a malty gold pour, it reminded me of a sweet and malty labatts. Nothing special about this one but not really crazy about this one but one of the better NA brews I have tried.

By far the worst de-alcoholized beer that I've ever had. I tried 2 just in case one was bad and it still tasted terrible. One of the few beers I will go without if it's their only option.

Comparing only NA beers, BUD Light and Miller Lite, not my favorite Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

This NA beer has a nice bronze color when poured from caramel coloring.
It starts with a 1 finger head that quickly dissipates to a thin cover.
The aroma is sweet, like malted corn beer.
The taste is slightly chemically sour, not the normal pine or citrus from hops, but somewhat sour along the edges of the tongue.
The body is decent with a moderate balanced hops to malt flavor.
I'd rate this just below Buckler but way above Kaliber, which is the worst attempt at a non alcoholic beer I have ever tasted.

I have been drinking this beer as a sometimes alternative for at least six years. If I want one for the road, this is it! So long as it is served cold I can fool most beer drinkers that it's the real deal. Thanks Labatts !
