Light golden color, with a small white head. Medium carbonation, medium to light malt flavor with little or no bitterness. Pleasant and very drinkable, but nothing about this beer really stands out.

I hadn’t notice the ingredients when I bought it. If I had seen it, I wouldn’t have bought it; glucose syrup, colour and hop extract... Jesus, save us! Unsignificant industrial "I-want-your-money-and-I-take-no-pride-in-wha kind of product. Chemical and metallic somewhat fruity maltiness, uninteresting bitterness, bland and thin texture. I don’t like that, not at all!

probstk (1911) - Nepean, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 18, 2009
330 ml bottle from LCBO, served cold in a tulip glass.

App.: Clear golden with a nice white foam. Aroma: Light, vague, boring malts, a touch of strange sweetness, something almost like wheat flour... Palate: Medium body, fairly full carbonation. Flav.: A little better than the nose, light biscuit malt, some grain/cereal, a touch of cardboard, no hops anywhere, still a little vague sweetness, but the beer is dry with basically no bitterness.

Stick to the wine making, France.

Clear golden with a white head - some malt and some hops - normal lager, ok to drink but not more

Mass produced French lager. Light body, ordinary flavour... never having this again.

BeerForFear (20) - Surrey, ENGLAND - OCT 11, 2009
Nasty french lager. Tastes a little worse than Stella but somehow this beer is far worse and contains more chemicals as well. I really do not rate this beer, typically seen next to a Fosters hand-pump in a UK pub so that is off-putting enough anyway!

D (577) - Gdynia, POLAND - OCT 10, 2009
Pours golden with medium, lasting head. Hoppy aroma, flavour also hoppy with slight grain notes. Pleasant aftertaste, in general enjoyable. Unfortunately, better than most Polish macro lagers.
