A generic supermarket brand, bought and drank in Menton a few years ago, but did not have a place to put it on RB, as I cold not figure out the brewer. Contains barley and wheat malt as well as glucose and caramel. Slightly darkened blonde; clear, tall, foamy head. Sweet, buttery malt aroma. Slight scent of fruits, maybe citrus. Sweet and oily. Butter/cream flavor. Decent malt. Slight alcohol warmth. Ok hops, but not a whole lot. On the whole it is a little too sweet, but the finish, while remaining sweet, also includes a good amount of hop bitterness. Should have a bit more. Actually a decent beer, though there are none of the earthiness or grass flavors that I like in a biere de garde, and actually, it seems more like a Belgian blonde, but it is nice enough for the cheap price.
