Bottle 65 cl. Pours clear amber with a medium diminishing head. Sweet malty aroma. Flavor is like water with sugar. Not good.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
A somewhat too sweet beer with a little foam, but with a good hoppy aroma, Not much christmas over this.
2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle, kindly delivered by jaghana - merci beaucoup! Clear amber-red colour, mid-sized off-white head. Very spicy nose, lots of spices here. Malty bas, rather sweet and lemonade-like, sticky, with some hop flavours, but mainly perfumy and spicy. Lots of spices that seem rather artificial, very sweet overall character. Nevertheless, not bad.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle from Carrefour St. Denis. Copper colour, small white head. Odd sickly fakeish aroma in the middle of vegetables. Dominated by the aroma that unfortunately turns to meat. Dry as shit. Maltiness, carbonation bite underneath. Very very herbal light. This is crap.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Clear amber with a white head. Aroma is sweet caramel, light malty and fruity. Flavor is rather sweet and moderate bitter. The finish is light acidic, bitter and fresh. 251209
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottled 65cl. Courtesy of jaghana. Lime reminiscence throughout. Like an extremely strong shandy (!) Weird, poor and artificial. Thanks a lot jaghana!
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle looks very simple, but not bad. Beer in the glass dark, not black, small head. Starts strong a little bit moldy, then more and more spicy, also modest dry. Finish a little bit metallically, but still very drinkable. Okay.

2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle from a Casino shop in rue Turbigo, Paris
Amber color. Metallic aroma. Sweetish flavor, very light caramel, touch of vegetables. Correct bitterness. Flawed. Quite bad experience.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Very attractive pour, nice dark amber, good bubbling, good layer of head on top. Aroma is malts, caramel, nuts, alcohol. Taste is smoother than I expected, some syrupiness at the end, nuttiness comes through and sweetness as well. A good example of a Christmas beer that’s not too overpowering.
