33cl bottle from Half Time. Amber pour with a small, tight off-white head. Malty aroma, nutty, sweet. Taste doesn't deviate, more sweet malty flavors, drying out a bit towards the end.

Ouah...quelle réserve spéciale....Je n'ose imaginer la traditionnelle car nous sommes ici en présence d'une pils un peu trop sucré, globalement inintéressante et sans grosse corpulence ou longueur. Les arômes sont insipides sur le malt avec une pointe de pomme de terre. L'alcool à 6,5 % est tout de même honorable. Le visuel quant à lui est sur un blond foncé limpide avec une effervescence peu soutenue et une mousse blanche ne nappant pas toute la surface. Rien de spécial et à ne pas mettre en réserve.

Spain…what a thumping win over Costa Rica to open the group! Unfortunately couldn’t keep the momentum up despite surviving the Group of Death. Better luck next time.
