2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
An orange beer with a fine white head. The aroma is sweet yeasty. But the flavor is not good - it is a very weird fruit flavor.

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20

3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
UPDATED: SEP 12, 2005 Bottled. Hazy golden, brief head. Aroma of toffee and paper. Medium bodied with rather lively mouthfeels. Grassy hops along with herbal spices and a lot of orange peels make up most of the flavour. Salty finish. A well balanced, typical north French ale.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
75cl bottle. Pours clear golden with a white creamy head. Aroma is sweet malty. Very matured nose - round & vinous with fruity notes. Taste is sweet & bready & ends very dry without any notes of hops. Smooth & slick palate. Slightly metallic. Drinkable!
0.9 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 1/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 1/20
Bottle, 7%. Horrible plastic aroma.clear golden colour, small white head. Blaaaaah plastic flavour. A little sweet drainpour!
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Nice head with medium duration. Color is golden. Aroma and taste are wheat malt, yeast, grass and notes of fruits.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Bottle) Pours a golden yellow body with large white head. Aroma of rich stilton cheese, leather, eathiness, musitness, smoke, and some pepper. Creamy textured palate.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: JUL 1, 2007 Soft, creamy, fruity
(peach), and lots of subtle flowery hop (roses?). Beautifully balanced and very elegant. This is a
very aromatic beer - flowery, fruity, with some malt towards the end. Reminds me a bit of Veuve Cliquot.
Re-rate: Perfumey, peachy, appley aroma with biscuity malts. Light malt underpins pearlike fruity notes. The yeasty toastiness is not here this bottle (it is not bottle-conditioned). Alcoholic note late. Not as complex nor as flavourful as I remember. Still good, but no longer great (this corresponds with a bottle I had a couple years ago but did not re-rate).
