Poured from a 330ml bottle into a shaker. This pale lager poured a crystal clear golden color with a ton of carbonation dancing around the glass. There was a big, fizzy white head on top that quickly disolved down to a thin layer of bubbles. Some faint lacing was left around the glass. The aroma was dominated by sweet malts, wheat, and a hint of bitter hops. The flavor was mainly barley malt with a slightly bitter, quick, dry finish. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied with a bit too much carbonation. Very crisp. Overall, I found this lager to be a decent session beer. Not one I would actively seek out, but I would drink it again.

500ml can. Pours a golden colour with a medium sized head. The aroma is faint, and slightly skunky. The taste is sweet, skunky, and finishes sweetly with a bizarre after taste that was sort of like sucking on a bar of soap. It wasn’t horrible, but certain things about it really ruined it for me.

had a bottle of this in Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse, Wis. USA. Poured with a big foamy off white head. Sweet nose offset by some bitterness. Perhaps a touch light struck from green bottle. Color is a burnished brass. Flavor is like aroma. Nice full body. Pleasant finish.

I tried this on June 30, 2007 after purchasing it from my local LCBO store. Having tried the Kronenbourg Lager, I decided to try this. The beer smoothly into the glass with a nice light gold colour, clear, with a thin head. The aroma is faint, but malty. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with some mild carbonation. The taste is more hops than malt and has a slightly bitter finish. Overall, a decent beer that I may try again but I prefer the lager.

Caramel aroma. Golden color, thin head, good lacing. Good flavor of grain and hops, but lacks character. Ordinary hop finish. Plenty of flavor, nothing at all distinctive.

Well, I just had this beer for the second time and it was not as good as I remember. Then again the first time I drank this it was 13yrs ago in France and I was 14 and did not know what good beer was. Slightly watered down taste, very pale body, and not much of a head. Smooth to drink is the one plus that I can give this and that is about all.
