May 30, 2008 My Bottom Line:
This amenable Bière de Garde proposes honeyed biscuits and herbal, peppery hops in a refreshing show of balance and quaffability.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A veil of foam covers the clear dark golden.
-The body is quite round for its size, but it’s never too sweet, which is appreciated.
-The finish is rather subtle; I would have preferred a slightly firmer hop grip.
-This is very easy to drink and it is quite hard to say it’s near 7% abv.
Bottle.

May 3, 2008 Cloudy orange-brown, head white and dense. Sour apple smell, reminiscent of cider. Flavour is fruity, a little sweet, with sour apples and mild hoppiness. A very interesting beer.

May 3, 2008 Hazy orange color. Head is white and bautifully lacy. Aroma is sour, apple-like, tart, flowery hoppy and slightly citric with some berries. Sour but still some kind of sweet apple-like, fruity and yeasty flavor is also spicy. Aftertaste is dry and slightly bitter with flowery hoppyness. Medium-bodied, smoothly carbonated palate is slightly alcoholic.
