Siroy (220), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Feb 14, 2006 [ Bottled ; chilled ; dates are unknown ; clearing common bottle from cellar to make room]
Mostly lasting average creamy white head that tops up a hazy light yellow body. Few thin particules. Aroma is heavy cereal/bread while hops are light grass and yeast is heavy sweat. Also, there are excessive notes of vegetable/cooked corn. Initial flavor is heavily sour/acidic surrounded by cereal while development is simply repulsive. Finish is short (thank god!). Light body.. watery texture... Soft carbonation..
I know one day I’ll be able to finish a Schoune. rederic (1785), montréal, Quebec, Canada Dec 29, 2005 Hazy pale yellow hue, with a frothy white head, floral hops, hint of spicy cinnamon, apples fruitiness, pale malt aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a fruity, sweet pale malt character, leading towards a lingering hops bittering finish. pintbypint (1002), Edmonton, Alberta, Canada Aug 8, 2005 341ml bottle shared with PandoraGreen and gilvanblight. Deep straw shade, small white fluffy head. Fruity malt aroma, bit of caramel and citrus-orange hops. Dryish with some malt, good dash of hops in the finish. Fairly thin bodied with a washed out feel. Eructoblaster (1477), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada Dec 26, 2004 Beautiful hazy golden body topped with a huge white bubbly head. Good and surprisingly complex malty aroma with some notes of yeast, bread, flowers and fruits. Taste is not really good: hoppy bitterness is partly hidden by some harsh aciditic flavors. It ends with a short finish. Despite some qualities, I do not recommend it. omhper (12147), Stockholm, Sweden Dec 18, 2004 Bottled. Cloudy golden. Doughy malt aroma with some acidity. Lemony, but in a balanced way. There’s melon and other fruits and pleasant, deep malt character. No bitterness. beerbuzzmontreal (2909), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Jul 29, 2004 Cloudy blonde color, thin white head. Weak fruity and yeasty aroma. The flavor is the same : fruity , yeasty and weak. Thin body, strong, fizzy carbonation. This one doesn’t seem to be infected, but even then it’s not good at all. TimE (1300), Tokyo, Japan Apr 30, 2004 A brown blonde ale which is confusing. The body is medium and has a strange mix of nutmeg and snuff which after half a bottle is more than enough. tiggmtl (4307), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada Apr 27, 2004 Aroma of grape soda. Clear golden colour with thin white fully diminishing head. Stale cardboard-like flavour and very grainy. Fairly thin body. Oxidized but at least not infected.
