750ml bottle (Snow@ChrisO)
Slightly grungy malty aroma, some hay. Soft palate. Gentle taste, some grassy hay bitterness. Alas a little dull for this time of the evening (late, fatigue setting in).

Bottle at the ChrisO Snow Tasting, London - thanks to Ian! Pours perfectly clear yellow with a light, white cream head. Big perfume aroma, some white dough and rotting fruits. Big sweet flavor with further perfume character, some hay. Medium to full bodied with average carbonation. Lightly warming to finish with mild bitter hay, perfume and white sugar. Tasty, interesting.

Bottle at ChrisO Snow Tasting, thanks to Ian. It pours golden yellow with a tiny white head. The nose is quite clean... grass, soft fruit, pear, melon and subtle herbal accents. The taste is initially relatively sweet, then dough, pear, melon, herbal, spice, metal and some bitterness with a dry, lightly spicy finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Ok, but definitely not my thing.

Bottle a Chriso’s tasting 20/01/2013. Slightly hazy yellow straw colour. Earthy grassy nose with some lager and nobel hop notes. Grainy, good grassy hop flaavour with a little spice. Medium hih carbed. Decent.

75cl bottle from Terre de Boissons. At Chriso Snow Festival. Hazy gold thin white head. Coriander and orange peel and mint. Herby lovely sherberty hoppy. Lemony

Fruitée, ambrée limite rouge. Peu de mousse, tenue très faible. Très similaie en couleur et en gout à l’Angélus de Printemps de la même brasserie.

Draught (La Tireuse, Toulouse as "Lepers 8")
Hazy orange color, good creamy off-white head. Ginger spicey and fruity nose. Medium-bodied. Sweet fruity flavor, overriped banana and ginger. Sweetish, some alcohol. Pleasant.
