Pours clear straw-gold, with a one-finger white head, good and lasting lacing. Earthy bohemian hop aroma, with a caramel undertone. Light bodied, crisp. Very mild flavors of caramel, apple, and biscuit. No obvious defects.

Draft pint at Nicholson’s in downtown Cincinnati, and served in a nice Kronenbourg 1664 glass. Pours a clear gold with a thin white head. Aroma of hops, wheat, grass, honey, bread. Flavor follows suit. Light body, mild carbonation, crisp. Quick finish. I think this is the first French beer I’ve ever had. It’s overpriced, but not as bad as other raters have suggested.

Pours a golden yellow with a thin white head. It has an aroma of sweet malt and bitter hops with some fusel oil smellable. It has a crisp, bubbly mouthfeel and tastes of bitter hops and fusel oil with a hint of sweetness from the malt.

Light yellow with carby bubbles but little white head. Aroma of grassy wheat and a mild taste to match. Fair palate and finish.

Can from LCBO singles bin: I’ve put off sampling this one for years and now I realize my disdain for pretentious canned euro import lagers was justified. Poured a limpid pale gold. short lived white cap,faint aroma of grainds and grassy hops and some funk ( I could be tasting a stale sample) Weak mouth. light peppery palate ( over carbonated) grainy tstes but sweet spartan hopping for a Euro lager...fast uneventful finish. To weak and sweetish without balance. At $2.55 a half liter this is totally overpriced.

Industrial lager widely distributed. Not as bad as Stell Artois but who can be bothered to differentiate.
