L Atrébate Blonde

Brewed by Brasserie Saint-Germain
Style: Bière de Garde
Aix-Noulette, France

Bottled. Very interesting aroma. Lots of citrus, a typical kind of spice and some carrots. Light hazy, yellow color, off-white head, good lace. Light sweet, malty, that typical spice again, light bitter and also some veggies in the flavor, medium body. Interesting but not really my kind of flavors.

75cl bottle from Carrefour, Calais. Very deep gold colour with thick lasting white head. Woody, creamy, yeasty aroma. Dash of citrus hop. Soft in mouth, more woody yeast on end. Disappointing blond, not crisp nor fruity enough

(Bottle 75 cl) Pale amber rather than "blonde", presumably filtered. Huge, pretty head albeit it collapses rather quickly. Sweetish notes of malt with a small, dry bitterness. And then it has this typical earthy, fusty Biere de Garde touch - very artisanal. 180505

Bottled. Hazy golden, rich head. Chalky with notes of blue cheese, Medium sweet with deep, papery malt character. A great beer!

Dark blonde beer with a reasonable frothy head, fairly plain fruity aroma and a very sweet almost apple juice flavour. Overall too sweet for my taste.

Bottle. Opens with a soft hiss. Golden amber colour. Spicy aroma and taste. Soft. Pleasant, delicate beer that doesn’t excite. Mouthfeel a bit greasy when carbonation settles. Corriander and bark is a little intrusive.
