Commercial Description:
“Garde Dog” Biere de Garde is unfiltered with a hazy, deep golden to light copper appearance. Brewed with domestically grown French Hops and German Pilsner Malts, it gives craft beer drinkers a very enjoyable, light-bodied, subtlety sweet beer with toasty malt undertones. Garde Dog is the perfect compleiment to lighter fare such as seafood, salads, cheese and Middle Eastern and Indian foods

This is a nice, simple summer beer. There is a good mix of hops and malt. Nothing special, but a medium-bodied beer that is simple but firm. No special taste.

Pours a slightly cloudy darkish gold with a small head. Light aroma of biscuit malt. Slightly sweet flavor, solid and drinkable.

Coppery golden with quickly fading white head. Aroma is sweet with a bit of strawberry. Taste is sweet with euro strong lagery fusels, and major biscuit component with round tartness. Nice and sessionable.

Bottled: Nothing to special about this beer. Malty smell with a clean, dry, crisp taste. Decent beer though.

Bottle. Poured a yellowish color with a small white head. Aroma is very dry and yeasty. Some earthy aromas mixed in as well. Taste is very dry and earthy. light hops hidden well. Very earthy. Not great.

Pale gold with a quickly gone head. Aroma is a light biscuit, with a bit of pepper. Light hops, not that sweet, a bit forgettable but unobjectionable.
