Labatt Bleue or Blue
Brewed by: labatt brewing company
Brewed at: Montreal, Quebec, Canada
Type: Lager
4.9% A/V
First Impression
From Quebec, this particular can of a long standing Canadian institution is adorned with the québécois label that is something if a novelty in my part of the world. Bleue is also known to the anglophone world as Blue. Nice tidy, to the point label design.
First Sip
Light bitterness, Bleue or Blue is a nice easy drinker. Like Canadian politics Blue occupies, or tries to occupy the hearts of the greatest number possible and as such doesn't take a lot of risks.
Halfway
Strikes me as just the sort of thing that if you were offered one without knowing what exactly what it was you wouldn't be disappointed.
Bottom
A nice mild mannered general purpose beer. Cold, refreshing. It fits the bill perfectly for the kind of thing my buddy Grabber is fond of describing as a good "grass-cutting" beer. An ideal accompaniment to any outdoor warm weather chore you might find yourself enjoying in spite of the fact that you'd never reveal such pleasure to your wife...
