Bottle (thanks mom!). Amber-colored beer with a medium beige white head. Aroma of slightly toasted malt and some bread. Sweetish malty flavor with some toast and caramel notes and a bitter finish, slightly herbal, with some metal. Rather light body. Not too bad.

Canette 500ml, courtoisie de Blankboy. De couleur jaune-dorée et claire. Nez de grains de malt pâle, de grains de maïs sucré, léger de houblon herbeux (foin et gazon mouillé) et avec des petites notes fruitées (citron). Mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et croustillant ainsi qu une texture aqueuse. Goût de grains de malt pâle avec de faibles traces fruitées (citron) lors de lentrée en bouche suivi dun goût légèrement sucré de maïs puis en finale lon retrouve une très légère amertume de houblon herbeux (gazon mouillé, notes de foin). Post-goût court, très légèrement amer de houblon herbeux ainsi qu avec des traces métalliques.

Bottled(500ml). -Dark golden coloured, medium sized white head, weak grassy nose. Watery, almost tasteless with weak notes of grassy hops and dust. It’s probably good if you are thirsty and it’s about 35-40 Celsius degrees, but drinking this in winter is complete failure.

Bottled(500ml). -Pale amber coloured, medium sized off-white head, dusty peppery nose. Light sweet malty and caramel taste with notes of hops in the finish. Quite good for beer with 3.3%. Very smooth.

Bottled(250ml). -Dark golden coloured, medium sized white head, low carbonation or should I say no carbonation at all, lemony nose.Very sugary and artificial lemon taste which hardly can be refreshing. Maltese radler.

Canned(500ml). -This one is low carbohydrate lager beer. Yellow coloured, medium sized white head that went away fast, almost neutral nose. Tasteless with mild bready notes and short salty finish. Like American macros light beer. On the label is written: Cut the carbs - keep the taste! What taste???

Really not so bad. Fairly mild, lightly roasted malt, some oatmeal. Just a little lactose flavor, not so much that it ruins the beer. Black, and a surprisingly thick consistency.

When you look at it in the glass it is ubiquitous pale yellow lager in appearance. Perhaps I detect a mild light clean metallic olfactory, in a good way. On the tongue, it has a haylike easygoing crisp sharp veggies infringement. Light honey hints, not heavy. It possesses an almost fruitlike quality. Nice carbonation. Not bad for a pale lager. Finish has a meek brittle linger. Good session brew. S5L2T5F3O13

Sweet lemony aroma, near lemon aide. Looks like a sparkling apple cider with a half inch creamy head. Very nice initial perfumy taste. Friendly with well preserved lemon flavors. Very easy to drink, fun and interesting. Overall, a very pleasant experience with no bitterness what so ever. Effortless to like. Would buy this again in a heartbeat. Approaches the enjoy-ability of many fruit lambics. Not quite sour, yet pleasant. S9L2T9F4018. Glad I purchased this one! Farsons has made a good quality first-rate fruit beer. Impressed.

Straw colour. Slight bubbly head. Straw nose with hay-malt and herbal, slightly grassy hop. Clean and grassy, but thin, with hints of straw. Sweet, gluey and doughy, like most of Cisk’s beers.
