Tried this only because I recieved their pint glass as a gift. This beer came off much like a pilsner. The aroma was very earthy with a slight musk. The taste was full and malty. A decent enough beer but nothing special.

Bottle 75cl. A yellow beer very clear with medium white head. Smell is on hops and lager yeast. Aroma is very classic for a lager, just a bit more hops but very watery. Better than the classic Kronenbourg, again a boring lager.

Pours a dark golden, loose white head. All the rest very typical steely Euro lager. Minerally sweetness, corn, herbaceous finish.

Bottle. Pours pale yellow, clear, with a small white head. Smell is pretty minimal but there is some bread in there. Taste is light, crisp, and very drinkable. I went into this will very low expectations but this is a solid lager from France. I’d drink this again.

semi különleges, kicsit savanyú szaga van. kicsit szénsavas. amolyan pizzasör. kísérőnek tökéletes. de nem több. hiába akar az lenni. száraz.

Pours pale golden with a thin, white head. Grassy hop aroma, some passionfruit/lemon notes with a malty sweetness. Clean flavours, malty with a nice zesty hops.

Bottle at home on 26th January 2010. Strongly carbonated with large bubble in froth. Pours pale gold. Bitter hoppiness along with cookie-flavoured malt aromas. Actually pleasantly rounded and refreshing for a lager of this type, but the fizziness kills it off somewhat. Good for drinking as a one-off when its 30C in the shade in July or August, but otherwise I would not go out of my way to seek out this one.

Can. Pours clear golden yellow. Good at first but taste fades rather quickly. Would have again.
