Commercial Description:
Biere De Mars is New Belgium’s exploration of the classic French and Belgian brews celebrating the half-winter, half-spring month of March. Our bottle-conditioned version, however, goes where no BIERE DE MARS has gone before. After gazing at its cloudy, yet glowing orange hue, prepare yourself for a celestial collaboration of oats, wheat, barley malt and lemon verbena, all of which is set into orbit by unidentified flying yeast strains.

Medium nose of citrus, floral and bread. Light body, soft carbonation. Some caramel, banana, and orange hints in a moderately hoppy beer. the finish is ok. A decent enough beer that reminds me of a Belgian white.

Pours a hazy orangish/gold color. Aromas of tart fruit, bread, hint of citrus. Flavor is malty/citrus. Leaves a yeasty orange aftertaste. Not for me.

A mixture of sour citrus and wheat combine to create the aroma of this beer. A golden-orange color and moderate head and decent lacing are the signature markings of this beer. The taste is of bitter wheat marked by mild citrus inflections. The taste fades fast.

Pours translucent orange with a thick head, which leaves nice lacing. Aroma is full of citrus and bread. Slides over the tounge with full body and a hoppy bite. Lingering aftertaste (with this beer, its a good thing). One of my favorites!!!

The color of this beer is great. There is a lot of flavors in this beer, and some well hidden alcohol. This is one that goes down smooth and requires some pacing.

My favorite beer for three months of the year. Fruity and spicy, but with no flavors going "over the top". Alcohol content is not terribly strong, and the balanced citrus and grain flavors shine through. Goes down so easy it can get you in to trouble. Very refreshing, and an incredibly odd color.

Out of a bottle. Aroma of citrus, wheat and yeast. Poured a hazy orangeglo to peach color with nice head. Flavor was good, orange tinge on the wheat definite yeast notes. Palate was medium bodied and finished well.

This was a good beer. Pours a cloudy golden broth, then settles to a beutiful orange tint. Good Lacing qualities. An almost honey like scent that goes well with the sweet-bitterness. This is also a good cooking beer, oddly enough..
