A high fermentation beer, Jenlain Ambrée is one of the first specialty beers in France and is been brewed since 1922. It owes its success to its inimitable taste stronger than all fashions. Its copper color, its aromas of cooked fruit and caramel make it a beer widely recognized for tasting but also a perfect ally for cooking.

Can at a tasting. Thanks Shachar. Clear amber. Grainy aroma with a bit of fruits and caramel. Sweet flavor with fruits, graininiess and some sugariness. Medium-bodied. What the hell?! This tastes like a cheap supermarket strong Lager!

Warning! Early amateur rating! Malty, tangy, sweet and creamy. Very drinkable, very smooth palate. No bitterness. Great!

Bottle bought at Leclerc supermarket, Boulogne, France. An amber coloured pour with a medium white head on top. Malty, caramel aroma. Taste is similar, quite malty, caramel, slightly sweet, slight bitterness. I drank a fair bit of this on holiday in Normandy, it sure beats Kronenbourg.

Big offwhite head. Body is amber, as promised, with light carbonation. Grainy resiny caramel aroma with dusty sugary notes. Dry-sweetish grainy strawy caramel taste with papery earthy notes. Mild mouthfeel. Mid-bodied. Dry earthy rye crisp bread aftertaste with dusty grainy notes. Quite nice, but not great. (0.5l can, E. Leclerc, Fondettes.)

Location: 12 oz bottle with my dinner at the The Bourgeois Pig in the East Village, which has a small, but pretty nice beer list for a place this size, if I do say so myself, 2/13/10
Overall Impression: This beer did go pretty well with the meal, and I was enjoying my fondue, so maybe I’m overrating this a bit, but it was pretty good. Amber bodied beer with a sweet malty flavor and a bit of funk. It’s pretty decent stuff, but not one of the top Belgian beers I’ve tried.
