750ml bottle from the brewpub: poured dark orange with a small light beige head. The beer is too cold at present to get much of an aroma but what is there is mild hops and some orange. Light roastiness. Flavor is light, mostly orange and a little hops with slight malt. I do like it. Easy drinking and clean. Moderate sour finish. A good beer. Possibly the best French beer I have had to date.

Medium offwhite lasting head. Amber body. Light malty caramelly aroma. Dry-sweet roasty caramelly taste with syrupy papery notes. Light body. Mild, soft moufheel. Dry resiny citric aftertaste with grassy fruity notes. Not bad, but maybe a bit light on the malts. Nicely drinkable, though. (0.15l draft at brewpub.)

On tap at the brewpub. Pours a clear amber with a white dimminishing head and lacings. Low sweetness quite bitter. Slightly fruity with a hint of yeast. No carbonation. Medium to light bodied. Dry slightly fruity and sour finish.
