Wonderful pour filled with solid head and a foggy yellow-orange body. What would go for average in the appearance department in France suddenly becomes spectacular in North America - fascinating. Aroma is plenty of hops and some coriander trying to hide a malty brew. Flavour is hops and more hops with some grain hints on the back end. Dry finish. Not a very good French beer but very refreshing after so many bland North American beers. Try harder, brewers!

Bottle courtesy of Bierkrug, thank you sir! Golden color, white head. Aroma of sour lemondrops and hay. Taste is very smooth, light malts, medium body. Hops are very subtle. Resembles a saison more than a lager in character.

Bottle, 25cl, thx to a Danish friend. It pours a clear, copper-colored body and a lasting, dense, beige head. Caramel, roasted malts and candy on the nose. Belgian yeast? At least it’s fruity in that way. It’s medium-bodied and a bit on the sweet side, nicely carbonated. Fresh and dried fruits, caramel, a spiced hint and yeast. Short, fruity finish with caramel. Not they best I’ve had, it goes in several directions, but definitely not bad. 101112
