Bottle: Poured a hazy brown beer with a huge head with medium retention. Aroma is quite light with some malts coming out of my glass. Taste is quite refreshing with a nice touch of malts. I didn’t detect much bitterness, which is unusual for the style. Overall, this is a very enjoyable beer but it won’t make history, in fact this style (bitter) will probably be seen as one the great.

Note that this is not the same as the Ambrée. Light amber in colour, with a lightly vinous aroma, grassy/herbal and with a touch of honey. In mouth ,fresh malt tatse , a bit on the sweet side, but little hops to be detected. Not well balanced and rather thin. Im not sure if this replaces the Ambrée though.

Red amber colour ith a nice aroma of malts and biscuits, with light floral hops. Gout taste of malts, with lighter hops than expected, not very bitter, lightly nutty, and light butterscotch. Citrus comes out as beer warms up with some smokey notes. Medium bodied.

Pourred a golden brew with a nice foamy head. The head seems to disapear a tad too quickly for my liking. Some citrus flavor with cereal. Very refreshing taste overall. Not the best of brew but not that bad either. I would drink this again on a hot summer day. I'm now curious enough to investigate the other beer produce by Lion d'Or.

Golden-brown colour. Toasty, caramelly, nutty complicated aroma. Very toasty palate with nuttiness and dusty brown malt-like notes. Complex, flavourful.
