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.

I dont know what "beer drinker" would like this, but it sure wasn’t me! Nasty sour, old aroma. Washed out, light reddish body with large bubbles in the head. Unpleasant. Bad plastic/Green taste in my mouth. Weak and uninteresting. Overall, not good.

had from the bottle. not much to this beer, just a mundane hop flavor to it. because it was from the bottlethe aroma was a little weak. Palate seemed slighly carbonatied.

Nice Amber Color. Reminds me of the a French Bottle Beer, Authentic Bottle. Aroma is pleasant. Nice Hoppy Flavor. Almost lemon after taste. Viva La France!!!

This beer has a beautiful swingtop bottle. Unfortunately, it doesn't have much else going for it. It pours nicely, with a thick head (albeit fizzy one). Aroma is strangely sour, smelling much like a Fosters lager (weird). Initial flavor pretty tolerable, watery and a bit malty but not too sweet. Almost like a weird corn taste. Aftertaste is pretty disappointing. Don't drink this with a meal. This beer has a strange effect in which it overenhances food that you eat. Creepy. And what in the hell is that fishy rubbery taste? I'll stick to Grolsch for my swing-tops (great bottles for bottling your own beer). I've got a sixer of Tilburg's Dutch Brown Ale in the fridge, waiting for me to suffer my way through this bottle. Blech.

Bottled, pasteurised. Reddish amber with bubbly, gassed head. Despite the gassiness of the beer there is a surprising amount of flavour, all malt really, but there is a certain charm to it. Presentable.

Light bodied, watery brew with a slight chocolate, almost tart, citrusy-carmel flavor; slightly astringent, and generally underwhelming.

Darker amber pour with a frothy head that dissapated quick, spotty lacing and lots of carbonation. Wet malt aroma with a slight touch of bitter hops. A little nutty or earthy. Earthy malts, caramel, and bitter hops. Quite a bit of bitter hops. A slight soap like quality to it. Slightly dry palate, medium body, and an acidic, bitter finish.
