Bottle, 25 cl. Amber coloured beer with medium stable white, lacing head. Smell is grainy, light sweet and a bit fruity. The taste has a grainy mouthfeel, with some malts and a light bitter finish. Not a bad beer, but I already drunk such ones and it lacks a bit in pallet.

bottle, Thanks to Suzy and Hubbie, Light brown colour with small but stable white head. Smell: I think about stew when I drink this beer. Taste: malty, nice grainy, watery. This is not bad but has nothing ’special’. I wouldn’t import this beer to Belgium because nobody would buy it.

75cl bottle from Sainsbury’s, 5.6% ABV. Dark golden colour, medium head. Nose is yeasty, sweet malts, some spices. Taste of yeast, malts, hint of biscuit, bready, butter. Sweet finish. Not bad at all.

Pours a clear dark gold with a decent head. Some sweet aromas. Not very complex, kind of a watered down and simplified version of a Belgian beer.

750ml. Brewed in Belgium, bottled in France, labelled by Sainsbury’s, bought in Nuneaton. Brilliant bronze beneath a thin white sheet. Instantly weird alluring English crumble aroma with apple, rhubarb, blackberry and vanilla. Some grassy hop and almond milling about beneath the sweetness and spice. The usual suspects, but with an added dollop of fruit and a pleasant clean butteriness I didn’t expect. Soggy spiced Swedish biscuit and papery sherbet fruitiness, creamy faint satsuma and pepper. Big glug of leftover Cinnamon Grahams milk. It’s obvious, mushy, painless and sweet and I like it. Good beer to entertain normals with.

Bottle, 750ml. A golden colour with a small head. A sweet caramel malt aroma with cloves and hops. Flavour has clove and some hop bitterness, but little else. A surprisingly uninteresting, watery, over-carbonated disappointment.

Mi inganna inizialmente la scritta "brassée en Belgique" in bella vista sulla lattina da 50cl; ma siccome sono curioso di vedere chi la produce mi accorgo dell’inghippo. Questa birra è francese; del resto è soprattutto per le birre francesi che si distingue il mio fruttivendolo preferito in Via della Maddalena. Vorrà dire che la proverò lo stesso e fingerò di essere ancora ingannato; versa color biondo scuro/ambrato chiaro con poca schiuma molto evanescente. L’aroma è interessante e mi stupisce, molto dolce e carezzevole, caldo e accogliente come la casa dove si è trascorsa l’infanzia. Il sapore è un po’ più bislacco, con un carattere inizialmente più da wit che però si stempera in un profilo maltosissimo che risulta un po’ stucchevole anche a causa delle manchevolezze del corpo (acquoso in principio, ma poi difficile da mandar giù). Non è una birra tanto da analizzare o da meditare, tanto più che quando si riscalda assume un metallico un po’ fastidioso; è una imitazione francese un po’ malriuscita di una ale belga, con qualche piccolo pregio e molti grandi difetti. Tuttavia sono contento di averla assaggiata (a parte che sembra abbastanza difficile da reperire).

Can (50 cl) bought at a supermarket in Bayeaux, Normandie, France. Hazy amber with a small creamy off-white head. Roasted and a bit sticky malt aroma with notes of marzipan, yeast and earthy hops. Medium bodied with soft mouthfeel. Dry with a long bitter finish.
