Smells like natty, looks like painful pee. Actually tastes better warm. begs the question whether the french are good for, or at, anything?

Dusty malt nose, med gold color, no head. Malty, apply tastes with a brief hop character at the end. Medium body and an ok balance.

Golden colour with a thin fast-dying white head. Aroma of skunk, malt, subtle hops and a minute sweetness. Medium to Light-bodied; Sweet malty flavour with caster sugar and a subtle skunkyness. Aftertaste is very clean, but shows a bit of sweetness. Overall, decent, but not stellar. I was lucky enough to have the actual French version of this beer-no english on the labels at all! Phil's (Haddon90) parents brought a case of this back with them when then went out to France, and I was lucky enough to try one of these 25 cL bottles. I sampled this beer on 25-November-2003.

Pale yellow-gold with minimal white head. Grassy aroma with a bit of hops and a metallic edge. Watery mouthfeel. A bit of malt sweetness in the flavour, and a bit of bitterness in the finish. A bland, average lager.

12 oz bottle - Pours golden with a small white head that dissipates quickly in my lager glass. Carbonation bubbles rise to the top. Aroma is malty and a bit of alfalfa hay and a touch of skunk probably from the green bottle. Flavor is light grains, some frosted flakes, and a light hop finish. Palate is light and watery.. Fairly crisp and clean on the palate.. but seriously lacks in flavor.

12oz bottle, delicately aged by jasonp. Thanks, Jason! Pours a clear, pale yellow color; white head that quickly fades. Slightly skunky at first, corn and sugar in the aroma; not very offensive, just bland. Light-to-medium sugar and mild citrus mouthfeel: bland but drinkable; quick, sugar and citrus finish. Not much here.

Enjoyed in the Swiss Alps from the bottle. Pours a beautiful pale gold with a head that seems to last. Nice hoppy flavor offset by a dull malt that hints at sweetness. Loved it.

Bottle. Typical lager malt aroma and faint grassy hops. Watery body without much character, improves when it warms up and looses a bit of carbonation.
