Jun 21, 2008 Bottle from Finn sampled at RISKY-Nielsys summerhouse in Bodensee. Typical Biere de garde beer with dry flavor of weak fruits. Hazy light and not something special, but not that bad.

Nov 9, 2006 Bottle from the Dodgy Deli on Cowley Road. Light burnished gold, nice lingering cap of white. Both aroma and flavor are a mix of butter, dried apricot and light berries. While I’m not one to shrink away from a touch of diacetyl now and then, it’s fairly heavy here, making the sweetness feel kind of unpleasant. Still, it has a certain interest. Light palate, yet still somehow a little sticky. Hard to say on this--my bottle might not have been in the best shape.

Oct 22, 2006 Golden with nice white head. Fruity and sweet with notes of bread, vanilla and alcohol. Flavor is fruity and sour. Citrus hops arise. Acidic. Some spices. Dry dusty palate that finishes sour

Mar 1, 2006 Ordinary golden color with a beauty full white head; Ordinary malty nose a little metallic, later a wet dog and a cardboard box steps out of my glass; Medium full and medium sweet body with a little acidity; Malty medium sweet flowery finish with some alcohol. (I had this beer at another occasion 3 years back where it was a lot better).

Jan 31, 2008 Finally got around to drinking this purchase I made last September in St. Louis. For some reason, as it sat in my beer rack, I remembered buying a lambic. Some memory. This is a traditional biere de garde. Fruity. Light. Not bad at all.

Jun 10, 2008 Updated: Jun 14, 2008750 cl bottle. Cloudy golden orange pour with moderate head. Funky hay, yeast, malt, grain on the nose. More of the same with added vegetable matter and menthol notes on the palate and a chalkiness in taste and mouthfeel that wasn’t very pleasant. I like funky beers, but this had some funk that didn’t seem to be intentional, and it certainly wasn’t expected from a Biere de Garde. Very different from, say, a Castelain Blond.

Sep 14, 2005 330 ml bottle. Hazy golden colour with a fizzy white head. Doughy, yeasty, and fruity aroma with light musty notes. Bready, yeasty, musty, pepper, and spicy flavours. Medium bodied, creamy and lightly fizzy mouthfeel. I could drink another.
