Bonne bière surette et rafraîchissante parfaite pour l'été. Pétillante à souhait !

Bottle. Pale gold slightly hazy gold pour with white head. Aroma is light, nice lemony notes, green apple, light grapefruit. Taste is tart, fruity, with light fruity sweetness. Palate is very light bodied with full carbonation. Very easy drinking, light summer drink.

Blanchâtre est la robe. Son nez épicé a une touche de citron et de funk avec des poires qui se désintègrent et des pommes un peu douces. Au goût, je remarque des fleurs et des notes fruitées acidulées avec des éléments sauvages. En bouche, le liquide est huileuse ou presque. La finale est bien sèche. Cidre a priori difficile d’approche mais bien correct après quelques gorgées.

Pour is (appropriately) the colour of lemonade, with a sparkling carbonation that creates a brief white cap. Nose is lots of lemon, tart apple, slight soap (or lavender as someone below noted). The lemon peel (I’m guessing) also creates an interesting tea-like element. Taste is mostly tart, but not overwhelmingly, and there’s just enough sweetness to make this stuff quite palatable. Finish is dry, lightly bitter. I think I prefer their Api-Hop, but this stuff is a nice refreshing twist too. The line about "its nice length in the mouth" really needs to go though. Good god.

Bottle from a trade. Light hazy pale yellow pour with no head. Sparkling, lemons, some light yeasty notes, green apples and a light tartness. Super dry finish.

Bottle purchased at Mondial de la Biere in Montreal. Pours a clear and very pale yellow with a few floaties and a ton of carbonation that keeps fizzing for quite a few minutes after it’s poured. Subtle and indistinct aroma of tart apple with a hint of lemon and not much else. Flavour is also subtle, but with a bit more character than the aroma, with the clean apple notes being joined by some floral hints and a lemony backnote. Body is crisp and refreshing, and the finish is super dry. A bit lacking, but still pleasant.

Bottle (500 ml). Courtesy of Minderbinder, thanks! Small gusher. Hazy extra pale yellow with a medium immediatly vanishing white head. Aroma is of green apples, light pears and light funk notes. Taste is also of dried apples, light pears, gentle funk and floral notes. Light body. Lively carbonation (almost to much). Super dry finish. Short lasting finish. A tad weird at first, but it was pretty good when given some time to breathe. Alcohol is not present at all. Quenching. A nice one.

pours hazy extra pale yellow with a disappearing bubbly white head, few bubbles surfacing after that. dried green apples, hint of pears, candied lemons, maybe more lemon than apples in the aroma, bit of perfume, lavender and other floral notes, young bretts - bit of leather. foamy and never disturbing carbonation, light body - oily, bone dry, very lightly tart and astringent grassy-citrusy-lemony finish. enjoyed!
