Commercial Description:
A slightly roasted malt gives it a light amber color. The rich flavor dominates the malt/hops balance and is very popular among most beer drinkers.

Pours amber with white head. Smell is a bit skunked. Taste is yeasty, slightly hoppy and malty. Fairly balanced between the components, leaning yeasty. Very slight malt variance from a lager, tastewise. Thin to medium body. Drinkable, decent, but not something I’d look to buy again really.

Light amber color with a well balance malt/hops. Rather watery for my liking. Pretty refreshing.

Pours a deep golden color with a white head. Carmel with some malt. Very drinkable and a good amber. Not excellent, but a thumbs up from me.

650 ml. bottle. Pours an overly exhuberant head of short duration, with some lacing, over a clear, golden brown(SRM 15) body......nose of light malts, honey, toffee....tastes of light malts, dry with slight bitter finish....mouth feel is light, watery, carbonation rather high. Rather simple, not particularly good.

Clear amber. Ample head. Pleasing smell of lager, grain and sour notes. Taste is rather thin with a sour finish. Whole bunch of meh.

Had this twice... both in that classic bottle. However, the second pairing ended up being extremely sour. Not much more that hasn’t been said, but I was actually disappointed given my first try, which was a lunch time pairing in NYC with a braised beef dish at Les Halles. Nothing spectacular, light malt sweet, but this bottle was very sour... I guess this is why Belgians, rather than the French are known for their beer prowess.
