muzzlehatch (4429), Burlington, USA Jun 9, 2005 Sampled draught at the Mondial. Very very pale bubbly blonde with smallish head...sweet tarragon and vanilla, almonds impinge on a pleased nose...the tongue feels great gobs of sugar, and light tingly herbs amidst the milky-creamy liquid...light fruits (apples) appear towards the finish, the effervescent body carries the day.

Decent aroma and flavor of wheat, lemon and grassy hops. The body is light to medium with creamy texture and moderate carbonation. rederic (1513), montréal, Quebec, Canada Oct 11, 2006 On tap at Vices&Versa, hazy yellow hue, with a white head, fresh cut hay and herbals nose, with a citrus fruitiness, ginger and faint vanilla spiciness notes, a mild sweet honeyish accent, with a subtle breezy salty sea pale malt aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a crisp zesty gingery spiciness character, with a citrus fruits accent, hint of vanilla, pale malt, faint herbal floral hops accent, leading towards a fruity lingering mild gingery finish. tiggmtl (4178), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Jun 13, 2005 Pleasant aroma suggests tarragon, vanilla and thyme in fresh pastry dough.Clear, pale gold body has a shy, thin ring of white head. Lactic, creamy, grainy flavour is mild with some pleasant spices in the finish and some mild fruity esters. Overall quite sweet but not unpleasantly so, and never cloying. Light, refreshing body with soft carbonation that is gently effervescent on the tongue. Sampled at Mondial de la Bière 2005. ClarkVV (3550), Allston, Massachusetts, USA Jun 13, 2005 Updated: Sep 11, 20062005 draught at Mondial, 6/4/05. Hazy blonde beer, with a whispy white head, well retained with some lacing. Aroma of fresh herbs, mint, thyme, sage and some dusty and thick yeast. Light honeyish malt as well. Flavor is heathery and dry, not sour or cereal-like. A light vanilla and honey-almond malt in the background with aggressive spicing up front. A bit of acidity on the end, bits of floral notes and a medium body. Light and fluffy on the palate, not watery or thin. Refreshing and gruit-like, though a lighter malt it has. Elegantly simple, and a pleasant drink.
