Belle Gueule Lager dHiver

Brewed by Brasseurs RJ
Style: Pale Lager
Montreal, Canada

Amber lager with a thin off-white head. Sweet caramel aroma with fruity pear notes. Fairly clean malt taste with nice nuttyness, and nice lingering german hops in finish. Medium bodied. Considering this is 9 month olds, it is quite a resilient beer!

Caramel malt balances nicely with lightly spicy hops in the nose. Clear golden-copper with decent and lasting, pillowy, white head. Some lacing. Light sweet caramel malts balance well with spicy hop flavour and decent balancing bitterness. Medium-light body and strong, effervescent carbonation. Sure, it’s pretty conservative for a winter seasonal and doesn’t exactly push the envelope, but really, for a pale lager, it’s fairly good. Bottle.

Couleur brun pale pas un grand fan de Belle Gueule mais cette water lager goute le houblon. tout de meme mieux que molson

Had this at a sidewalk cafe in Montreal. My wife liked it better than I did. Not a bad beer by any means, but a bit light on flavor and the aroma wasn’t particularly memorable.

This is another seasonnal beer from Brasserie RJ. This is actually a winter lager. Pourred a light colored brew with a medium head. The taste is quite light with a nice sweet aftertaste. I would have expected a stronger brew since this is a winter seasonal beer but overall it is not too bad.

Bright yellow gold color, with a nice white head, floral hops, pale malt aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a bready, pale malt, grainy and juicy hops flavors, and a subtle grassy note, leading towards a zesty bittering hops finish.

Plus qu’une simple bière, cette nouvelle Lager d’hiver est singulière et rafraichissante. Elle puise là toute sa quintessence.

Amber color, medium white head. Sweet and malty aroma and flavor. Light body. How the hell is this supposed to be a winter lager ? It’s just another ordinary brew from RJ ... now, a doppelbock, that would be a nice winter lager.
