I tried this beer on draft in Paris, while waiting for a train. It had a clear gold color with an ample, foamy, white head that had good retention and cling on the glass. It had a mild, grainy hop aroma, and a somewhat bland, light malt tone too. The taste was mostly sour and bitter, and also a bit dull. It had a mild level of carbonation and a thinner, dry palate. It is an unexceptional beer, without a unique character.

Clear color. Smell of skunk, malt, hops, corn and grains. Taste the same. Very watery.

Not your typical green bottle pale. Had a bite with lots of carbonation and a watery after taste. It’s not as bad as I thought after the first one. Is a malty pale lager that satisfies that taste if that’s what you want. This may be France’s most popular, but hopefully not their best beer.

Too soft aroma. Soft golden colour and soft foam too. Soft wood flavor with fruit notes in palate. Not an awfully bad beer, but it is not a meal beer neither a refreshing one.

Sold in Morocco in tall-boy cans (50 cl) in specialty stores. Pale in colour, a bit watery. Has some sort of quasi-fruit like aftertaste that bothers me a little bit. Rather syrupy- throat feels like I just drank a gallon of soda. Not as bad as most beers in Morocco, but nothing special. Could be Pabst for all I care. On an unrelated note, back home in Philadlephia, this is considered a "classy" beer in the trendy hipster bars. Ugh.

Pale colour, white head. Some grassy hops noticable in aroma and flavour. Sad beer.
