Bottle. Typical lager malt aroma and faint grassy hops. Watery body without much character, improves when it warms up and looses a bit of carbonation.

UPDATED: AUG 4, 2010 12 oz bottle. Very skunky aroma. A great fresh tasting brew - very smooth as well. I would try this again.

Had at St.James Tavern by Picadilly Circus, London. This one was widely advertised so a friend and I gave it a try....it’s the gutter of EUROPE!!! Advertising is BULL!! ...thank-you...

Draught in Geneva airport. Clear gold with a medium, creamy white head that settles fast. Aroma is a little sour and grainy with some hops, but is very faint in intensity. Flavor is dry and bitter with some hop flavor; a little bready with some grain in the finish; not too clean. Light palate with high carbonation and lingering bitterness. Overall, its got more hops than I would have expected in a pale lager, and that makes it more interesting than most, but they don’t really make it taste that much better.

Pours golden with white head, a bit of grassy aroma with some bread notes. Taste up front is grassy and a bit of floral hops, leading into bready and lager type malt taste with a bit of a dry finish.

Bottle. From Beers of the world. Guess France better stick to making wine. This poued yellow, no head. No nose. No flavor. No nothing. Believe it or not I think Budweiser is as good as this.

Pour is yellow with a white head. Aroma is only slightly skunk out of the green bottle. Flavor is corn with a sweet aftertaste. The best thing about this beer is the cool raised glass bottle.

Sweet corn nose, also hints of malt. Golden with a fast diminishing medium head. Lively carbonation. Hoppy, medium finish. ok
