Another bad French beer. Compared to virtually every other European beer, this falls short. Tastes like watery lager, with too little hops and taste. If I were given a choice between this and Bud I would actually have a hard time deciding.

Canned. "This’ll be another crappy canned lager" I thought as I opened it...looks ok, good gold colour, and a white head that lasts, and leaves a fine lacework. Aroma?..well...slightly hoppy, and slightly malty..hmm,not that great. Palate is smooth and slightly malty sweet, cant find any hops there tho’..not the "crappy" I expected, not a classic either..ok,I suppose for a S&N "produced under licence" lager.

Pours a light golden color with a white head. Aroma is light of wheat, grassiness, and some slight floral hops. Flavor is a little stronger then I expected with wheat, grass, and floral hops. Better then the typical pale lager but still nothing special.

From old notes. Poured from a bottle. Poured a typical yellow color with a minimal white head. Light aroma of corn, wheat, and hops. Flavor is basically the same. Pretty simple and one dimensional, but not horrible. Ok as far as lagers go, but I won’t pay for one.

I’m nt a fan of this style, but for a palelager this isn’t bad. The apearance is straw gold, with an orange tinge. The aroma is earthy, malty. The flavor is less sweet and slightly more hoppy for this style. The palate has a refreshing bitterness. OK for what it is.

Rather nasty, in my opinion, but some girls I know in London have a big fetish for it. Rather bland.

Pours a typical clear straw-yellow with a little white head - nothing special. Crisp aroma is typical of a macrobrew lager. Flavor is, well, lagerish, no complexity, not much bite, fairly tame. Texture is smooth and tingly, at least not watery, but still not memorable. OK.

On Tap-Judges Bench-Ellicott City Md-Clear yellow color w/a slight white head. Not a whole lot going on here, had a grassy, corn flavor to it. Kind of bitter, I wouldn’t really recommend it, I guess you could drink it if you had to, but why??
