Jun 24, 2007 12oz bottle...Nice copper amber hue with creamy diminishing tan head, not much lacing, malty smell and taste, lightly carbonated, a little sweet caramel, a little hoppy. Good balance. Alcohol % listed higher than tastes. All in all slightly above average. Have not had too many French beers.

Jun 10, 2007 Pours with a thick off-white head on top of a hazy orange body. This one has a malty, musty aroma. There is also a faint horse blanket aroma suggesting some brettanomyces action. Sweet, profoundly malty taste with some mild lingering bitterness expected for the style. Notes of caramel, nouget and marzipan. Highly carbonated with a lean mouthfeel. A great beer.

Jun 6, 2007 I was not tremendously moved by this beer. It was very mild mannered in aroma, but had an unpleasant overly malty sweet flavor I did not care for. I can’t say I’d recommend this for that reason.
Its appearance was pretty good, with an amber color with a macro-looking head composed of tiny uniformly sized bubbles. It didn’t smell like anything. Flavor was very malty sweet, and a bit unpleasant.

Jun 5, 2007 Bottled.
Dark copper colour. Low head. Sweet malty caramel, almond paste and alcohol in aroma. Dusty malt flavour with bit sweetness and tad licorice and dried fruits plus vanilla. Alcohol shines through with some bitterness. Still, very soft mouthfeel.

May 31, 2007 Sweet aroma, cloudy brown color. Taste is malty and sweet in a way similar to some heavy porters but this beer finds a much better balance of sweetness and hoppiness. Quite good.
