"Labatt's tower a perfectly cold, perfectly straight way to pour beer

Garry Marr

Labatt calls it the perfect pour, a new state-of-the-art technology designed to make sure draught comes out at an exact temperature with a precise foam head.

How exact? The draught tower engineered by Labatt ensures the beer is chilled at 2C to 3C from the keg to the spout. That's the temperature most draught beer was meant to be poured at, says Labatt."

Labatt's does make truely foul beer. Even so, I reget to inform you that Labatt's has been Belgian for quite awhile now.

I bought a six pack of Harp last week and found that the label now reads, "Product of Canada".

What comes around, goes around.

Most is right... Newcastle recommends 50-55F for their brown ale in draught.

Nifty recommends his beer be served at normal refrigerated temperatures into an ice cold frosty glass mug. He also needs to remind himself to put some beer in the damned fridge!

Whoa there, you call it what you want. But up here it's Labatt's.

As in John Labatt's brewry. As in this guy is like family. As in, "Hey loser! Labatt's new new beer taste like toejam eh? Let's go kick his ass."

LOL thrawn i undr stand you point of view! but i would tend to believe even when you order a beer in a bar you surely dont say " A' give me a LABATT's" do you? Now when your speaking of his brewery yes you would say LABATT's brewery!

it kinda like say i drive a FORD's car ........... it simply does not work!

i used to work in a bar and there nothing more annoying than people who would ask for a "Labatt's" cause with the music going all you really here is the "BATT's" part witch is most often taken as the person is ordering a "Bass" like a "BASS ALE"

either way call it what you will i just wanted to point it out!

And just for the record READ THE LABEL no 's never was never will be (even on the side of the case)
