Bottle in France. Pours red/copper, clear and medium white head that dissolves quickly leaving no head. Aroma is very grainy and cereal with some sweeter toffee notes. Taste is dominated by sweet caramel notes, very little hops in there. Also some cereal malt notes hitting the top of the mouth on the finish. Pleasant.

4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
From Metz, France. Mestermű. Pedig nem néztem volna ki belőle. Mivel a tesóm mindig valami tömegtermékkel lep meg külföldről. Ez viszont minden dicséretet megérdemel. A francia sörfőzés remekműve. Nem gondoltam volna, hogy túl tudnak lépni a Kronenbourgon. Gyönyörű réz színű telt testét hatalmas világosbarna hab fedi, mely lassan de eloszlik, halvány fátylat hagyva maga után. Íze a jobb belgákat idézi. Nincs túlspilázva. Egy erős, karakteres íz, amolyan vékonyan parfümös. Talán egy kicsit édes. Nem is, inkább karamelles. De nagyon itatja magát. Ott van a szeren. Vagy mondhatnám azt is, hogy penge a cucc. Kellemes meglepetés volt számomra. A 7.5% alkoholt nem is érezni benne. Kötelezően beszerzendő a jövőben is. Ápropó, mi az a Bičre de Garde?
1.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
Bottle. Copper brown pour with almost no head. Aroma of burnt caramel, brown sugar and earth. Taste is repulsively sweet, tons of brown sugar and weird sweet malt. Palate is too lightly carbonated. Definitely tastes like old beer, this one probably died on me - down the drain it goes.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
12 oz bottle from Capone’s. Pours copper with frothy off-white head. Nose is vienna malt, hops, brown sugar. Tastes sweet, malty, with brown sugar, honey, mild fruit and tinny notes, not great. Somewhat watery and light palate heft, and not a great beer.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Reviewed from notes.
Pours a golden copper with a nice white head and some good lace. Nose is fairly tame, but has nice characteristics of light fruit, toffee, nuts, and a dash of earthiness. Taste is mildly sweet and fruity. A bit of soil in there. Feel is light and rewarding. A mellow, well integrated beer that is one of the better Biere de Gardes that I have tried.
Serving type: on-tap
