A hazy orange beer with a nice white head. The aroma is sweet yeasty, and spicy with coriander standing out. The the flavor is just as the aroma and with a dry end.

(Bottle 33 cl) Dark, fully golden with a lively head. Very full-bodied, a malty nose and a distinct, hoppy character on a very sweet background. 240101

Bottled. Yellow coloured with a white head. Fruity aroma of malts, corn and caramel. Sweet flavour of malts and corn with fruity notes.

65cl bottle from Auchan, Calais. Hey my 100th different French beer and there was me thinking it was all Kronenbourg and Export 33. Clear gold colour with thick white head. Spicey lemon aroma. Very drinkable blond beer in the mouth, bit of spice, oranges too. Bit soapy on aroma and in mouth. Very soft mouthfeel. Finish has some interesting orange fruit notes. Yes, for my 100 not a bad biere de garde. Spice and orange fruit over a soft lager style body.

Lager color with small white head. Weak, fruity trefoil aroma. Sweet, a bit smokey, malty taste. Medium-bodied. Sweetish hoppy aftertaste.

clear golden-blond colour, the initial head quickly reduces leaving just few foam, perfumy, alcohol and orange aroma, sparkling, full-bodied with a chewy-like mouthfeel, initial sweetness, slightly oily with a dry, warming alcohol finish - unbalanced; more a malt liquor than a bière de garde and in any cases not good

Bottled, 650ml. Gold with white head. A lovely surprise this, a fully flavoured french Blonde beer, fruity with hints of fortified wine, some honeyed sweetness, spicy and tangy. Tasty and lasting, pretty decent.

Bottled. Golden coloured. Very weak aroma with notes of toffee. Cloyingly sweet flavour. Quite thin. Bad.
