Second beer of my French beer tasting evening, blue 500ml bottle, best before 30th April 2008, drank during a cold damp Oct 2007. Poured into my Hoegaarden Grand Cru glass. Looked good, a fine dark amber with a firm white head. Fairly sweet aroma, not lagerish thats for sure, more a toffee smell. Again sweetish and not very lagerish at all in my opinion. OK mouthfeel, the sweetness hangs around and is pleasant enough. Overall not bad at all, I think some reviewers have made their minds up about this beer before they have tried it, just because who brews it.
