From a 500mL can: Pours a nice dark gold with some carbonation and has a nice frothy white head of two fingers. Aroma is sweet and floral with some hops. Overall the aroma is quite promising, which leads us to the flavor: Bland corn some malted barley and faint hops with a fruity, bitter finish. Overall, I’d say that this is a good beer. Although the flavor was the only real disappointment, this beverage is getting very poor recognition.

Had a 250ml can of this on an Air France flight to, of course, France. This being my first French beer of the trip I was highly disappointed. This can’t even hold its own around other macro brewed lagers. Smells skunked, taste is sour, bitter and intrepid. More like a badly spoiled champagne. Repulsive, avoid if you can.

from a 12-oz rocket-shaped bottle - a lager which smells primarily of malt with little else aside from a hint of anjou and green apple. flavor is similar with a surprisingly small presence of hops despite their advertisement of ’aromatic hops from alsace.’ no detractors from this beer - its decent score is because it’s just that there isn’t anything wrong with it.

Actually smells better than it tastes...so whilst promising a great deal only partially delivers. Still largely enjoyable though

Bottle at home. Lightweight, fizzy lager. Bit of a sweet apples, sour and minty taste to it. Fair enough.
