| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 1, 2009 0.75 l bottle from beershop.hr. It poured clear darker orange with medium sized head that went down pretty fast. Slightly alcoholic and malty aroma, weak and simple aroma. Flavor is malty, somewhat alcoholic as well, sweetish. Relatively thin bodied, without something that would stand out here. Some earthy and honey sweet finish. Slightly alcoholic which also makes finish a bit bitter. Reminds of some better malt liquor and not so good as some supermarket BDG I had some time ago. OK and easily drinkable beer when you consider it all, but misses character being so boring!

Poured a clear orange color with a large white frothy head that lasted and produced good lacing. Moderate yeasty and sweet citrus aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and flat carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a smooth citrus sweet finish of average duration.
Soft drinkable brew. elihapa (1066), Honolulu, California, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Feb 15, 2009 Bomber. Pours clear orange with a white head. Aroma of yeast, orange, funk and lemon candy. Flavor maintains sweet note of maple, caramel, ad candied apple. Finishes average length with caramel sweetness. Given that this is a biere de garde, I was not expecting the sweetness.

That may not be saying much, but I like this & am drinking it now: Ive often found biere de garde’s to be suffering from being too sweet ,or too much like boozy,beefed up ’pale lagers’ or just messy .Yeah ,biere de garde is a diverse style of beer. This shit has some style though. I really like this beer. Loads of malty caramel vibes.Spicy,dry hops and a strange herbaly texture from said hoppinness..with muddy earthiness. Very eazy to sink,with good qualities. mike1977ok (648), Netherlands
