May 13, 2007 Rather light. Great beer for refreshment. Brown sugar seems to be a key flavour.

May 8, 2007 Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a small but lasting white head that leaves minimal lacing. Aroma of sweet malt and light caramel. Flavor is much the same with a mild bitterness. Medium thin mouthfeel with a little alcohol bite and slight metalic after taste. A good beer but I probably wont buy it again.

May 3, 2007 Pours mohagony with a small head. Aroma is sweet and malty. Flavor is very the same with lots of sweet malt and dried fruit flavors, and a bit of a hop bitterness. The alcohol is very present in this beer. Finish is sweet and sticky. Not one of my favorites.

Apr 30, 2007 Bottle. Nose is estery, full of banana and apple notes behind yeasty sourness. Gorgeous beer. Fantastic lacing, beautiful active carbonation, a fine light amber color. Flavor is spot on for the style, but unfortunately not my favorite style nonetheless. It sits well on the palate and is enjoyable, though uncomplex.

Apr 23, 2007 Bottle drunk somewhere in Duras. Nice 750ml corked bottle from which I poured a very attractive clear amber (no surprise there then) beer with a slightly banana-tinged head. Distinct smell of herbs and young apples. Taste was quite surprising, with an oddball funk quality, caramel and bags of spices. It was one of those beers that took me some time to decide whether I liked or not. It’s different alright......but I just don’t know.

does not count  Apr 22, 2007 I’ve been drinking Jenlain for years, buying it direct from the brewery in the late 70s. As output from the brewery has grown over the years and Jenlain has become more popular, the beer has lost nothing of its distinctive taste. Goes down a treat, especially with some smoked ham or Cantal cheese !

Apr 15, 2007 Clearn unfiltered red pour. Thick lasting head. Herby scent, a bit grassy, almost salad like? Very boozy taste. They definately don’t try to hide the booze in this one. Love the logo. One of the best French beers I have had.

Apr 12, 2007 750 ml bottle. Pours a clear orange gold with a large, off-white head and lots of tiny carbonation bubbles which settled down after several minutes. Light, pleasant aroma of malt and a touch of yeast. Flavor is also a bit on the light side with malt and yeast both present in the flavor. There is a very light flavor of saltine crackers at the finish along with a light alcohol burn.
