Commercial Description:
Light and refreshing, La Torra blonde is the first beer to be flavoured with Arbouse (scarlet berries from a bush that grows wild in the Corsican maquis). Its fruity taste and unique character give it a true Corsican personality which makes it all the more special. To bring out its summery scents, it is best served at 5 to 6°C.

Golden tandard hue with a thin head. Sweet honeyed nose with some spice. Orangey taste with a touch of honey. Reasonable beer.

Way to funky flavors going on here, not carbonated much, and sticky sweet, even the aftertastey sweet, not too good.

a typical corsica beer (à l’arbouse) brewed in Jenlain ? come on ... - clear and bright golden colour, big white head; aroma of blackcurrant/strawberry syrup; sweet and slightly sticky (but not as much I was fearing with this aroma), no beer character at all, the finish is relatively dry with more fruity notes - urghhh !

(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy, golden beer with a thick, creamy white and rather stable head. Some crude, floating impurities at the bottom. A somewhat indefinable aroma of berries. Flavour is clearly raspberry although I understand it’s really the berries from the Strawberry Tree (Arbutus). A slightly synthetic edge. Sweetish but yet with a dry finish. Rather unusual. 191005

Bottled:
Foamy head, ddep golden color. Intensive apricot aroma, light artificial. Taste is sweetish, light fruity, malty, somewhat spicy. Dry finish, light bitter. Light to medium bodied. A bit strong perfumed and to sweetish.
