Pretty typical for a pale lager- some grassy notes in the aroma but relatively lacking. Flavour was much the same- a little malt in there but not much. Thin body and mouthfeel with lots of carbonation.

The coolest pour of any pale lager I have seen. A small tornado of carbonation was visible. Aroma is of Saaz hops. Flavor is the same but there isn’t much of it. Some caramel is deep down in there. But all of the flavors are deep down. I had higher hopes for this famous beer.

Bottle. Clear gold with a cloudy and large white head. Enjoyable grassy aroma was pretty strong for a pale lager. Pretty sweet and malty flavor. Medium bodied. Finish is slightly filling and malty. Decent considering it comes from France.

Main stay of British pub drinking along with Stella. Very light taste, pleasant and refreshing. Good colour, odour changes with temperature so enjoy chilled.

Has a golden color with typical Euopean canned aroma. Easy drinking uncomplicated taste , simple in body. Good taste and carbonation. This could be a North American style beer by taste and that comparison makes sense consitering that is what is sold at MacDonalds in France and other European countries. Pretty enjoyable lager I think.

Golden, clear, hints of corn and some malt. A straightforward lager, like a deluxe French version of most American macro lagers.

Bottle, very light golden with a white head. Corn, skunk and cooked vegetables in the nose. Notes of corn, and light grass/hay. Very very light and watery in both taste and texture. Lively carbonation. Not good.

(11/3/07, 33cl bottle, thanks jasonp) Crystal clear straw body. Aroma is medium sweet, some grass, light skunk. Taste is medium sweet, some corn, fairly inoffensive. Watery light body.
