This then would be the blue label 5% abv version, in that slick green bottle which I think is a nice touch. It's a clear golden in colour, a fizzled out head that's not even worth mentioning, really. Crisp grain and honey on the nose, backed by floral grassy hops. Flavour also possesses that crisp grain/bready character, rounded out nicely with light herbal hops. Smooth and crisp, it has a thirst-quenching mouthfeel, very easily made into a session ale, and one of my new favorite lagers. I'm pretty impressed, as I'd sampled this first a year ago and it never left much of an impression on me at the time. It is what it is, and that would be a clean drinkable lager with some character.

Had this 2-3 times over the last 2 weeks in France. Easily found all over the country. From a 16 oz. can to a pint glass, and also on tap. 0.25L pour.

a - Pours a hazy burnt orange color with one inch of bright white head and light carbonation evident.

s - Smells of sweet malts, bready malts. biscuit, light floral hops, light fruity malts. Not a ton going on but some light fruit to it.

t - Tastes of bready malts, dough, biscuit malts, and wheat. Not bad but not much going on in the flavor at all.

m - Medium body and low carbonation. Easy to drink a few of them.

o - Overall a pretty average beer; not much to it really, other than some wheat, bread, and biscuit malts. Easy to drink, cheap, and easy to find, but I stopped ordering them and stuck with the Belgians I could find when possible.

Serving type: on-tap
