(Can 50 cl) Pale golden beer with a small head. Not a very pleasant smell, so I feared the worst for the flavours. But they were a nice surprise, soft - not sickishly sweet - and not very sharp in itsβs bitterness as so often in this style. Added brewing syrup and other additives. 020102

Bottled. Flat, pale beer with a little head. The aroma is vanilla and the flavour is vanilla , with a dry finish. Sweet, syrupy and watery notes also come to mind. Overall a very poor beer.

Sampled from 12 oz brown bottle. This beer poured a pale yellow color with a medium white head. Sour malt and skunk aroma. Same for the flavor. French Bud - how lovely.

Pression in France. Golden light headed beer with a light aroma and a light watery flavour with only a hint of bitterness. Overall a very plain lager.

Tiny 8.5oz bottle. My half glass poured a clear golden color with a medium thick white head. Minimal lacing. The aroma is sometimes sweet, sometimes skunky. Light-bodied with very little flavor. Mild hops and sweet corn are about all. Actually the flavor was better than expected, in that it actually had a little. The finish is clean and relatively flavorless aside from a mild bitterness.

Slighly hazy golden coloured body with an orange glow and a thinnish white (cotton-looking) head. Aroma of PURE skunk, nothing good at all in this one! After getting past the skunk, some citrus and saison smells come out of it. Light-bodied; Sharp malt taste up front with a tiny bit of hops and a small amount of tart malt. Aftertaste shows a pale lager flavour with not much else. Palate is very dry and not sweet in the slightest bit. Overall, a bad beer, but not as bad as I was expecting! Iβd actually rather take this than most big name crap beers like Amstel, Henie or any American product. I sampled this small 8.5 ounce bottle (that says ALE), purchased from Total Wine in McLean, Virginia on 18-January-2005.

This beer comes in a quaint little 8.5 oz green medicine bottle. That said, the aroma is 100% skunk. Clear yellow body with a big off-white head, very similar to the average American macro. Even though a dense head forms, the beer is relatively flat. Flavor is on the hoppy side, with earthy, spicy hops (although light). A touch of malt balances the hops. Not very good overall.

An orange beer with a small white head. The aroma is sweet of alcohol. The flavor is malty sweet with the alcohol being quite present. The body is quite good.

Pale golden. Some hay-like hops, urine and vauge malts in the aroma. Accent is malty, but not overly so. Off-dry finish. In the Heineken vein of having some admirable characteristics, but overall too light to bother.
