Mar 21, 2009 The bottle poured tawny red with fluffy tan head, into a snifter. Fair retention and good lacing, the aroma has nice caramel and yeasty, bread crusty notes. I like the balance between alcohol, intense caramel and hoppy acidity. And it opens up nicely with a bit of warmth. One of my favorite French brews to date.

Mar 18, 2009 Nice red amber color, transparent, fluffy beige head. Sweet nose of honey, yeast, pepper, sugar. Slightly metallic. Flavor is very yeasty, still rather sweet with sugar, apple, some grassy hop bitterness that follows through to the finish. Pretty tasty stuff, though it doesn’t seem to have realized its potential.

Jan 9, 2009 Bottle: Pours a nice glowing hazy amber color with a strong light tan film of head. Aroma has some caramel soaked fruits, plum notes, a touch of diacetyl, and some peppery phenols. A bit thin with loose carbonation. Flavor is pleasant with some fruit skin bitterness (apple skin), mineral notes, smooth, lightly oxidized caramel, and a peppery bitter fruit skin finish. Not bad, just a tad lacking in body.
