Labatt 50 if you want a clean, familiar lager-adjacent experience,
Wild Heaven Emergency Drinking Beer if you want actual hop character in a session format.
Labatt's the default play—inoffensive, crushable, the beer your uncle orders. Wild Heaven's got personality: it's a pils that actually tastes like pilsner, not just "light beer." Both sit under 5% ABV, but they're chasing different things entirely.

Labatt 50
Labatt 50 is what happens when a lager and a blonde ale have a polite conversation and agree to disagree on flavor. There's almost nothing aggressive about it—grain sweetness, a whisper of corn adjuncts, clean finish. It's designed not to offend, which means it also doesn't stick with you. Crushable for sure, but forgettable.
Wild Heaven Emergency Drinking Beer
Emergency Drinking Beer actually tastes like a pilsner distilled into session form. There's genuine spicy-herbal hop bite at 40 IBUs, a lean malt backbone, and that crisp, snappy finish you get from proper pilsner technique. It's got backbone where Labatt has smoothness. Drink it cold and fast—it's built for that.
