| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Sep 16, 2009 Bottle - 341ml. Hazy pale blond body with average carbonation and a huge white frothy head. Fresh malty/hoppy aroma with some grassy, flowery, and corny hints. Taste is misbalanced and carries some CO2, paperish, and metallic notes. Ends with a short bittersweet, sour finish. This is the worst beer from Les Trois Mousquetaires I ever had. Good thing they took it off the market because it doesn’t compare to the rest of their products. GRM (1273), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada

| 2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Feb 11, 2009 341 ml bottle from La Trappe a Fromage, served at cellar temperature in a tulip glass. OC13/08.
App.: Slightly hazy light straw with a decent loose froth.
Aroma: Light fruitiness, a certain green herbal note, green apples, some organic acids, light yeast.
Palate: Medium-light body, moderate carbonation.
Flav.: Green apples, light green bitter herbs, a bit Saison-ish, a bit of yeast, light tart fruitiness; dry with a touch of bitterness.
I think this is starting an infection. Certainly doesn’t hold up to their usual offerings but not the worst light beer in the world. iowaherkeye (1860), Los Angeles, California, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 27, 2009 341mL bottle, no date from Boutip, thanks Phil. Wow--quite the gusher. Pale yellow urine with as big of a head as you can get, frothy and very effervescent. Aroma of burnt bitter plastic and light floral hops. Flavor adds a bit of herbal and cereal grain notes, and thankfully, loses a fair amount of the burnt plastic notes. There is a hint of honey and lemon tang. Bitterness peaked around a 2 in the earthy semi-dry finish. High carbonation with a light body. Actually turned out better than I thought it would, but still not a so great.

Smells of perfume, hay, citrus, soap, dry malt. Tastes light and citrussy. Refreshing and well-balanced. Boutip (2380), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Sep 22, 2008 Bottle: Poured a light yellow color lager with a nice foamy head with low retention and some minimal lacing. Aroma consists of light floral malt with some very subtle hops. Taste is also quite light but not as bland as the style would suggest with some medium-sweet malt with some light floral notes and some very subtle dry hops. Well done and easily quaffable for a style that is not known to produce masterpiece. TaktikMTL (2786), Montréal-Nord, Quebec, Canada
