Aroma of corn and grains. Taste is an okay blend of corn, hops, some sweetness with a bitter aftertaste. Not bad, not great.

I’m sure KidVenom is right. Imports and can taste much different in the their homeland, due to preservatives and shipping. Unfortunately, this one after being imported tastes like a French Heineken. Smells skunky and lacks any kind of flavor.

33 Cl Bottle - Paris, France I am one of the few who have actually tasted this beer straight from France itself. The stuff that they import to Canada is shit. But the actual local stuff is fantastic. A dark gold colour, with a nice white lasting head. Aroma of citrus, sweet flavor, with a semi-dry finish. A fantastically crafted beer. Please dont give up on it just yet, head over to France and you’ll see what I mean ;)

Pours from bottle a blond color with medium sized white head. Aroma is soft with dry grass and a little wet card board. Flavor is bisquity, with sweet malt, corn, dry grass, and some wet cardboard which becomes more pronounced as the beer warms. Palate is lightly sweet with a slight bittering toward the end and a rather thin consistency. Overall, ok while very cold, but because unpleasant as it warms.

500ml can. Clear golden with a thick foamy white head. Good retention and lacing. Aroma is malt, boiled vegetables and a very tiny bit of hops. Taste is mostly water with some sweet malt, corn and an homeopathic dose of hops. Thin body with a watery mouthfeel.

Vertical Bacon Strips (1617) - Asshat, Alberta, CANADA - JUN 15, 2009
Typical solid gold with waaaaay too many unfiltered chunks, lots of bubbs, poured out a decent thick white cap and left excellent 360 degree lacing. The aroma was dry and soft with wheat and grainy malts but overall it is too weak. Taste is poor. The sharp bitterness wasn’t a good start, either were the chemicals. Dry, grainy and wheaty. It seems like there may be a slight spice in here...maybe. Light bodied, zippy hops throughout, dull but sustained aftertaste. Too gassy. Strange, I swear I just noticed apricots...
