LookMomNoHands (580) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - FEB 10, 2012
0,33 l. bottle in to a snifter. Clear, amber colour with a small, white head that lasted. Malty aroma with bread, caramel, herbs, something earthy and used tea-bags (!?) Light bitter malty taste, with bread and earth notes. Medium body with a slick texture. Soft carbonated with an astringent finish with malts and that weird used tea-bag flavour. I liked this one despite the unusual flavours.

edpeg (505) - Berlin, GERMANY - JAN 28, 2012
0,75l bottle. Pours rusty amber clear with white thick head. Aromas sweet malts, some hay, grains , maybe nuts. Texture is slightly sticky yet watery with medium carbonation. palate is sweets malts, basement and weak hoppiness, almost no bitterness. Finish is sweet and short. Drinkable, but rather standard, not much going on, For 7,5 ABV very smooth though at expense too sweet aftertaste.

750 ml. Clear amber with a lasting quarter-inch of meringue. Mild nose of earthy wood, apples, cheese, and pears. Taste is brown sugar and apple cider, with some light woody bitterness. Not much funk, but there is a sourish twinge. Medium body is almost cloying, and a little too fizzy.

ontbeermaker (1406) - Ontario, CANADA - NOV 26, 2011
Bottle from chesters, pours a nice amber, the smell is of darker fruits the taste is pretty harsh at first, ruff around the edges but it finishes with a nice kind of burnt carmel or a nice sweetness. decent offering

mattphilips (747) - Budapest, HUNGARY - NOV 23, 2011
Wein Kultur, Berlin. Áttetsző világos narancsbarna színe van, bézs habja szivacsos és egyben krémes, közepes méretű és közepesen kitartó. Illata leginkább malátás, szalmás és karamellás, de van benne egy enyhe likőrösség és néha kevés komló is bekerül a képbe. Gyümölcsösen és karamellásan malátás íze van, illetve baracklikőr és némi komló is érződik, valamint gyümölcsöslekváros és malátás utóízzel bír. Komoly testtel rendelkezik, de élénkebb szénsavasságának köszönhetően egy jól iható, közepesen édeskés főzet. Nem mellesleg életem első Biére de Garde söre, tehát nem különösebben mozgok otthon a fajtát illetően, de mint sör, nem voltam elájulva tőle, persze azért finom volt, de semmi érdekfeszítő.
