50 cl can from Franprix. Dark brown and clear. Smells sweet. Tastes ok. No flavor outside a bit of bitterness, but no bad flavors. Ok palate but watery taste.

a_cross (346) - Poole, Dorset, ENGLAND - MAY 23, 2013
Brown, but with warm hints of glowing red, no head; enticing aroma of malty bread and booze soaked cherries and raisins; sweet malty flavour, brown sugar and some spice; it maybe a bit one-dimensional but it’s a dimension I happen to quite like.

ThirstyBird (418) - Düsseldorf, GERMANY - MAY 18, 2013
Pours a clear chestnut color with tan head. Smell is caramel, dark fruit. The taste follows the nose with a bit of alcohol. Light/medium body slightly course carbonation. Overall OK, a bit sweet.

Oakrock (61) - Helsinki, FINLAND - MAR 22, 2013
Quite nice beer as a "mass product". Straight -good palate and great bitterness. Roasted apple and caramel. A little too much of "roast" taste which is essence, I’m afraid.

Birra francese, però molto simile ad una dubbel belga dolcina dal gusto fruttato e caramellato. Ottima. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
