75 cl bottle at Lumiere. Pours golden color to very light amber, almost clear, no sediment in the bottle. Thick creamy bright white head, persistent, lacing. Mostly malty with an huge starchy note, maybe due to yeast strain, light candy orange and sugar, but mostly and surprisingly flat. Taste is sweetish yet fairly balanced, light bitterness in the finish. No citric notes neither hops tones, nothing at all, reembles a strong lager. On the other hand it's incredibly smooth and easy to drink, i can't say at all this feels like an 8%, seems a much lighter one in the 5.5% range, but after a while alcohol kicks in. Very clean but nothing that stands out, hence a bit disappointing.
