In my opinion, it is an average beer, not really an amber and it sounds more a pale ale, hoppy, bitter and dry, a bit watery, refreshing, 13.08.18, at the Mayens d'Arbaz with Fred, buying it through Qoqa.ch

In my point of view, it is a decent amber beer, all the qualities that you could expect for the style, bready, rather dry, touch of plum, 14.05.18, at Prélaz, buying it at Paris, Marché de l'Aligre.

It is a regular and common amber ale, perfect to start a night or a tasting operation. The taste is rather dry and malty, nuts, toffee, 21.04.18, Bonne-Espérance with Guillaume.

In my opinion, it is a correct amber, rather dry for the style, malty and bready, watery, some hop, at the final, could be more fruity, 13.05.19, at Prélaz, thanks Fred for this bottle.

It is a classical amber, I was thinking a little smocked due to the spanish ham but it was not the case, 23.10.17, Cerro del Aguila, purchased at the Alcampo.
