22oz bottle. Poured a medium golden color with a large sized white head. Aromas of citrus (lemony), grains, and light caramel. Tastes of citrus, caramel, and a little floral. Thinner body and tastes.

Pale amber, rather weak-looking body saved by a lovely big creamy lasting head; nose grapefruity, simple, pleasant. Flavor something like the brewers describe it, crisp and dry; but there’s not a lot of hops and the body is watery. Prety mediocre on the whole.

Mild, sweet grainy aroma offers light citrus hops. Opaque milky-yellow coloured body with creamy, white, fine-bubbled head that recedes to partial cover and dots the glass with lace. Mild citrus hops over lightly grainy malts with light bitterness in the finish. Moderate carbonation to the medium-light body. Somewhat syrupy. Sampled at Mondial de la Bière 2005.

Tap: Medium yellow hue with a good white fizzy head and lace. Buttery and fruity aroma with additional hints of grain and flowers. Sweet tasting with an acidic lemony touch. The finish was clean and smooth. Dry light-bodied brew that was quaffable with my meal.
