<i>Bottle at Le Sous Bock, Paris</i><br />Amber color; poor head. Light aroma of chestnuts, acceptable. Weak mouthfeel, with a light flavor, mix of caramel and vanilla-chestnuts, not what you would like in a beer. Not horrible, but useless as a beer.

Pours a beautiful, clear, red amber with an off white head. Quite sweet with strong, slightly bready chestnut aromas. Medium bodied. Highish carboantion. More chestnut in the finish. Weird but good. Gets a bit cloying towards the end.

Bottled. Amber coloured. Notes of nuts, vanilla, prunes and dirt. Quite sweet flavour. Oxidized. Unpleasant.

Coffee, caramel and freezer ice - lots of fizz. Gentleman’s hairdresser. Some dark chocolate cappuccino. The base beer is unexciting. This is like a cheap flavoured coffee, except it’s a cheap flavoured beer. Acceptable, but only just.

Well, to quote Cream, this is a "Strange Brew"...Hazy gold colour, thin,but fine bubbled head. The nose is unusual, vanilla, and is that some sort of sweet biscuits?...The palate is sweet again with the nutty flavours making an appearance. An unusual style, nice, but one is enough, thanks!
