A la biere comme a la biere, Paris: Pours hazy orange with a nice head that is white. Aroma is some fruit and earthiness. Kind of dull hops. Taste is better than aroma. Nice and bright. Fruity and a bit bitter.

Thanks to quack-duck for that one. Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts mild, fine hoppy. Interesting fruity notes of apricot. Wheaty-grasy background. Quite drinkable. Good!

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, straw, and caramel. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and lemons, leading to a bitter finish.
