[226-20070305] 500mL. Light yeast straw grain aroma, slightly mouldy. Clear, light orange yellow body with some quick-rising big bubbles and pours a big foamy white head. Flavour holds sweet straw and light yeast, fairly bland. Light body has sweet roundness. Tastes better than it smells, could almost repeat but for that aroma.

Fairly mediocre, but well carbonated. And I like bubbles. Not much flavour. Probably would not get this one again.

Meh. I tried one in France a year ago. I saw it in a bar the other day so I decided to try it again to see if it was any good. The aroma was weak with hops. It poured a clear golden color. The flavor was quite weak and tasted a bit funny to me... I couldn’t pinpoint what was unusual about it though. The pallate was quite dry with medium body. Not too great in my opinion.

Its one of the better french commercial beers, but still worse than an average lager. Good for a summer thirst and worth the extra 20cents over the regular Kro. It’s light and mildly refreshing, but drink it before it gets warm.

Very skunky odor. Sharp initial tste. Bubbly, light mouthfeel. Tastes like roasted potatoes, somewhat smooth.
