Bottle 33cl from a bottle shop in St Pierre poured into a tumbler @my hotel in Ottawa (what surprise they have tumblers!). Hazy pale golden color, fair frothy off-white to white head, slowly diminishing, light lacing. Aroma wheat, coriander, lemon grass, some cloves. Taste medium sweet, light bitter and sourish notes, malty, coriander, touch of cloves, lemon peel. Medium body, watery to oily texture, soft carbonation, aftertaste as in taste, spices linger on, perhaps not very clean but has character, nice.
