The taste is of caramel maltiness and hints of fruit. The finsih on the palate is astringent. CaryTheDude (1114), Longmont, Colorado, USA

Aroma is earthy and fruity with notes of grapes, apple and wood. Nice carbonation and good mouthfeel. aste is complex with apple, grape, vanilla, wood and some brett here and there on the finish, not a lot but I knew it was there. Interesting beer and well done!

Thick,murky brown pour with a light tan head. Citrusy orange/lemon aroma, a little sweet and just a slight tartness. Tart apple flavor, a bit of sweetness and little woody character, not too shabby.

Aromas of cheese, caramel, champagne. Flavors of mil, malt , nuts, a light roastiness with a light, hidden fruitiness. Pretty bad overall. boboski (1095), Alabama, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Feb 24, 2007 A bouncy, rocky, ultra dense off white head forms from a cloudy dark amber body. Well retained with the usual gorgeous JP lacing. Brett leads in the aroma and is followed by oak, floral hops, milk sugar, spices, cookies and caramel malt. Flavor is an anomaly: A blast of taste is so huge that I wonder how no other Biere de Garde examples I’ve had weren’t any closer in intensity. Red wine grapes and acidicy are added into the mix in an intoxicatingly delicious flavor. Also noted are robust French oak, more spices, hops, a serious amount of Brett and possibly Lactobacillus. Medium to medium-full silky soft mouthfeel with plenty of tannic acidity in a long and pleasantly sour finish. Fantastic and unique. jredmond (1090), New Jersey, USA

Aroma is sour - perfectly enticing. The taste is sweet and awesome notes of sourness. A hint of caramel spice. MAP (1089), Lakewood, Ohio, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 17, 2005 Can’t thank BierBauch enough for this one. Biere de Garde’s are becoming my second favourite style. Aroma is of light honey, pasta, light fruity plum and banana. Beer comes off as a hearty brown with a tint of orange. Flavor comes off with a busy first impression. It left me with a sweat mouthfeel, but came in yeasty and earthy, more of what to expect for the style. The more I drink it, and it warms up, I get chocolate and caramel out of this, more earthy tones come out, but still in a sweet delicate way. If only my women were like that.
