Nice golden brew with a medium lingering head.
(Love the label by the way)
Some fruit hints in the aroma and flavour, but the overriding impression is one of grassy maltiness.
Very pleasant too. Good slight lingering aftertaste and very refreshing.
What this has to do with "springtime" is beyond me, but a nice beer nonetheless.

Jun 13, 2008 A golden ale with a thin lacing white head. Aroma is perfumed malt, with lime notes, almost like Pledge. In mouth, a crisp mineral malt with light residual sweetness, light boiled corn, again the sickly perfume notes. A bit cloying. Bottle from LCBO, Spring 2008. Tasted June 13, 2008.

Jun 9, 2008 Bottle LCBO. Wow I’m rating right after my beer hero LOL. A very light and simple BDG - has light session ale characteristics and some fruit, perhaps suggesting hint pear, Sweet, pleasant and undemanding - though unoffensive I did not feel like finishing it.

May 27, 2008 Hazy dark straw. Warm, malty, bready nose with a light herbal hop accent. Very sweet, sugary character with limey overtones and bready undertones. Finishes somewhat thick, quite thick and simple.

May 26, 2008 330ml brown bottle. Golden colour, head is off white and quite creamy. Good lace left behind. Grassy aroma, some lemon notes with lager like malt present. Sweetish malt is upfront, then lemon peel hop notes appear, some grain notes as well. Ends dry with grass. Body is light with a creamy mouthfeel. Refreshing.

May 22, 2008 Big thanks to matt7215 for sending me my first Biere de Garde. Pours a clear gold with a thin white head. The aroma is full of sweet maltyness. The taste is fizzy and smooth; some dry apples, floral hops, tons of malt, some honey and a bit of metallic flavors. Pretty nice, like a champagne. Thanks Matt.
