Commercial Description:
A beer that could, in the vaguest sense, be considered a Belgian-style “Singel.” More than simply a low-alcohol table beer, however, L’amour du Jour brings a very rare finesse to the realm of the biere de table . Lovingly crafted of the finest FrancoBelgian pale malts and gently hopped with Saaz, it is finished with fragrant contributions of lavender, sweet orange, and jasmine flowers. At once unusual and yet very drinkable, L’amour du Jour offers a bright and crisp malty palate, followed by a balanced fruity finish with a lingering perfumed scent. Sound like CBC’s first ever “chick beer"? Perhaps, but any male secure enough in his masculinity will certainly impress with his ability to appreciate this flavorful, delicate, artisanal ale. À votre santé ! OG: 1.050 FG: 1.009

BA BBF 06. Aroma: very spicy, yeast, and some malt. Taste is the same, with a spicy lightly bitter finish. weird but interesting.

BCTC 06 Pours a slightly cloudy yellow color with a ring of white lace. Aroma and flavor of peppery yeast, fruits, honey and spices. The body is medium with an oily texture and soft carbonation. It’s good but not too entertaining.

NERAX 2005 Golden in color with white lacing. Aroma an d flavor are supported by herbal and spicy characteristics. Mild citrus notes and floral hops.

Partly cloudy yellow with a very small white head. Smells nothing. Very thin body. Lighly fruity, some herbal spices, some sweetness, very little in terms of malt/hop character. Not bad, just blah. With all the great beers at BCTC 2006 this was far from my Love of the Day.
