Saint Omer Bière Blonde Finement Brassée

A pale golden lager, that smells like. . . a lager. Nothing very creative here. In the mouth it was nice and refreshing. Served cold in the glass to was certainly very easy to suck back. The finish was completely unremarkable. This is the type of beer that no one could find a single reason to criticize, however I don’t believe any one could find a reason to boast. Very French, if you know what I mean.

(100cl bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a fluffy foamy white head. Dusty, sweet and a bit sourish malty nose, slightly grainy with a faint hoppy touch. Sweetish flavour, slightly acidic, very slim bodied with watery mf, smooth carbonation. Soft malty, a bit corny taste; minimal bitter and short finish.

Screw-cap bottle (1.0 l, purchased in Calais): Golden coloured, mid-sized fluffy head, quite stable; robust traces of barley and hops in the nose; very faint sweetish-bitter flavour, watery MF; extremely watery finish, only illusionous traces of malt and hops. Yeah ! French people, keep on making wine......
