JoeMcPhee (6835) - Toronto, ON, Ontario, CANADA - JUL 21, 2009
Bottle courtesy of eclectic. Deep amber with a thin white head. The aroma is lightly sweet with a bit of sweet caramel and white sugar. There is a soft sweet chewiness. Fresh and lightly herbal. A lingering apple sweetness on the back. Just a kiss of funkiness.

@Pauls Girardin unblendeds chugging-courtesy of eclectic thanks Kevin-37.5cl bottle–pours a very thin off white head and copper color. Aroma is sweet medium malt-brown sugar, dark fruit-prune/raisin. Taste is sweet medium malt-sugar, medium fruit, some earthy. Soft effervescence.

Parket (521) - Bruges, BELGIUM - JUL 19, 2009
bottle, light beige colour, small but stable beige head, sour and sweet smell, also like the taste. But surprisingly not too sweet for a faro! Subtile and refreshing beer.

wimpie133 (380) - Brugge, BELGIUM - JUL 19, 2009
Bottle, 37,5 cl. A light-brown bear with a lacing medium beige head. The aroma is sour (lambic) and light sweet (sugar candy), also light fruity. The taste is a perfect combination of lambic, which gives this faro a sour touch and the sugar candy, preserving the agreeable sweet taste. Not too sweet at all, an ideal beautfil combination. Also some fruity touches in the end.

Bottle. Clear amber body with a medium off white head. Malty aroma with some ripe fruit and raisins. Light spicy flavour with some fruit and sweet malt. Light sour touch. Medium bodied.

marcus (3763) - Sacramento, California, USA - JUL 18, 2009
This non-opaque brown beer poured with no head at all and a brown sugar aroma. It starts real sweet with a sour dry finish.

KyotoLefty (3480) - Kyoto, JAPAN - JUL 16, 2009
Rather dark, malt vinegar look to it. Sweet, dusty aroma, with honey, dried fruit, citrus and lactic acid. Ok sweet/sour flavor balance, with caramel and yogurt. Nice bitter, dry, finish, but too sweet overall.

Anker (723) - Hillerød, DENMARK - JUL 14, 2009
Bottle with courtesy of plovmand. It pours an amber colour with a off white head. Aroma is sweet with notes of rock candy, raisin, grape, wood and fruit. Flavour is a little watery with notes of malt, raisins, rock candy, wood and hay. Although its not as sweet as many other faro’s its still not really my thing.
