| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 31, 2009 On tap at Blind Tiger. Pours a deep red with no head. Aroma of sweet malt, very indistinct though. Flavor of sweet caramel malt and apple skins. This is a decent beer, very drinkable, but not really complex at all.

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 2/5 | 8/20 | Jul 27, 2009 Biere de Garde, one of my least favorite varieties. Tastes watery with little character. Anemic color and a poor finish. Yep, this beer has it all. Just like it promises, at leastits a ’good’ representation of it style.
I’ll skip this one next time. walrussell (121), , Illinois, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 21, 2009 Really nice - flavor is just strong enough to be good while still being relatively light. Tastes like caramel, light hops, a little sour, a tiny bit of metal, a tiny bit of raisin. Surprisingly Thick feel. Excellent for lower alcohol - I could drink a lot of these.

My first Biere de Garde, one of the 4 beer styles I had yet to sample here on Ratebeer.
Malt and hop aromas. Golden coloured strong in alcohol and rich on the palate. Crisp and slightly dry lasting malt finish. BVery (537), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA
