Can from Auchan, Quatre Temps, La Défense, Paris
Hazy blond color. Poorish brew, but at least less flawed than others; there is not much alcohol presence, not oily; light malt presence. The final is worse than the rest. Anyway, uninteresting.

Can. A dark golden beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of metal, malt, and a bit of caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of alcohol, caramel, and malt, leading to a dry metallic and alcoholic finish.

Papsoe (22983) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - OCT 13, 2011
Can 50 cl. Courtesy of jaghana. Pours a clear golden with a white head. Rich malty nose with an actual edge of hops. Solid body with a rich and filling malt base - unfortunately a late metallic tang. The alcohol can be noted in the finish but is pleasantly balanced by quite some hops. Not so bad really. 131011
