3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 JoeinEscazú (1120) - San Jose, COSTA RICA - FEB 19, 2008
Sweet and malty yet refreshing and begging for some food to wash down. Drank at La Gueuze cafe in Paris. 33 cL bottle pours classic amber color with fading white head. Sweetish cookie aroma with tinges of apple and maple. Rather sweet flavor, just short of cloying thanks to a very slight bitterness, soft carbonation and maybe a bit wet. Lightly bitter and sweet aftertaste. Would be the perfect complement to something roasted and salty... somebody bring me a bird.

75cl bottle: Malty aroma of caramel malts, grain, banana nut bread, warm alcohol, a little hop and low aluminum foil. Flavors of crystal malts and a quick roast touch that only lasts for a split second. CO2 brings a "green sting" to the back of the throat. Some banana and mixed fruit in middle. Long smooth but grainy finish with hops that ends with a little tin.
