12 ounce bottle brought from France available at Total Wine Ft Lauderdale $2.29

Poured a very clear yellow/amber color with a small white head. Aroma is quite skunky with rice and corn. Taste is very sweet with lots of grain flavors. A bit watery. Finish isn’t too bad nice and crisp. Overall not the worst tasting thing I’ve had, especially at %6.

I enjoyed this one on Tuesday at my local wine bar. From what I remember, this beer poured a beautifule amber color, with a very foamy/thick head. Smooth flavor, although it could have used some more hops.

swing top bottle, amber color with large lasting head, nose is fruity and malt, flavor is light honey, fruit and malts with a thin watery metallic finish

This beer pours a very thin caramel color with a small, diminishing, offwite head. The nose is weak and, um, pilsner-esque (which sucks). This beer hardly tastes like an amber ale - it is far too light and fluffy. It comes across more like a pale lager. Once I got over the initial disappointment, however, the qualities of the brew - its very light and inoffensive fruitiness and its pleasant and silky mouthfeel - saved it from utter disaster.

Amber. Mild aroma of caramel and corn and some sweet malts. Taste is kind of mild too with caramel and a corny aftertaste.

16oz swingtop bottle at work (first work tick, hell yeah!). Pours, well, amber, with decent clarity and a small white head. The aroma is caramel malts and grain, maybe some appley yeastiness. The flavor is rather simple. Caramel malt, slight nuttiness and earthiness, somewhat sweet. Medium-light bodied with carbonation on the higher end. Overall, pretty run-of-the-mill, but nothing offensive to it.

Smells pretty bad. Flavor is a little better than the aroma, but no much. A little hoppy and watery. No go

Transfering data from personal beer file. I drank this beer a long time ago. I’ll update this rating if I have the chance to drink it again.

Bought this because it was cheap and I wanted the bottle. It’s not a dark amber like i was expecting, and is really sweet. Was hopeful for better, but ready to expect it to be not as good as I hoped.
