Can. Nice amber color, decent head and lace. Taste has a corn like taste but it has a lot of rich flavor. Aroma is light with a caramel corn note. Not bad for a monster beer.

Pour is a nice clean dark amber with a large white head. Aroma a nice caramel and molasses. Flavor is more heavy caramel malt but this is not sweet. Finish is thick and malty. Pretty good beer of a style I don't usually sample a lot of.

bottle - had at random with friends. Light as it gets - not something you seek out.

Bottle. A really nice example of a German Hefeweizen. Really surprising since it comes from a mega brewer. Taste is spicy, clove, banana. Taste is the same. It is a little strong on the banana and a little light on the cloves.

Bottle at the Airbnb in Marigot. Copper pour with a thin head. Totally unoffensive lager but also painfully mediocre with barely any noticeable characteristics. Meh.

Bottle at the Airbnb from Carrefour. Pours briwn with a quickly dissipating head. Nose is dried fruits, molasses, bread and biscuits, some chocolate. Taste is chocolate, dried fruits, nougat and molasses, pretty decent. Closes with a short, dry and watery finish, it’s got a watery body and soft carbonation. Awfully thin, which is a shame because some body it’d actually be a pretty decent porter.
