3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
The Lure:
Spicy oranges and sweet candy quietly suggest a well-crafted brew. A bit of cork pricks the distant citrus fruit, as raisins and caramel malts reclaim the nose.
The Festivities:
A soft interplay of malty sweetness is broadened by oranges and a light roasted malt finish. Fruitiness prevails throughout, and a diplomatic serenity reigns.
Transcendence:
Spring seeps into the ground.

Bright amber body with medium carbonation. Aroma of sweet toffee malt, tobacco, cigarette paper, and corkwood. Earthy flavor with medium-high sweetness, some balancing alcohol and low bitterness. Sticky palate. Good, malty Bière de Garde.

Gee the aroma in this fellow is hoppy, for a belgiun fellow. Grassy hops believes me that this is a bitter. Taste is also immencely bitter hops with grassyiness but the malt kicks in just in time to give it a little balancing. Not my stsyle of beer to much bitterness. Not bad all the same.

Burnt gold in colour, big impressive white head...overall looks fab! Nose is a heady mix of malt, spice and honey. Bursts with flavour...malt,light spice and a soft acidity. The finish just goes on & on...great beer! Alcohol is 7.5%. This was brought back from France by a visiting friend. Where to buy in Scotland/Borders?

UPDATED: JAN 31, 2006 Jenlain is actually a very good beer, and in my opinion it is one of the best beers in Northern Fance. It pours a cherry-copper color with a nice white head. The nose is fuity, and it drinks a bit like an American Ale - there’s a bit of caramel, moderate carbonation, hints of fruits and flowers. The alcohol is fairly high, but it isn’t overly present in the palate.
