You see this lager all over Belgium and way down into central France. It's apparently one of Belgium's best selling beers but I can't think why given that country's proud brewing tradition. I drank a 33cl glass of it in a hotel in Burgundy. The local Burgundian beer was no longer available and as I'd already had 2 bottles of Leffe earlier with some uncharacteristically French fastfood, I decided to throw caution to the winds.
Initial impression: this ain't up to much. Cold and crisp but that was about it.
Not a great deal of aroma or steam. A kind of smooth, malty feel that wasn't unpleasant but which didn't particularly grab attention either. Nevertheless it did seen to improve as I neared the bottom of the glass and gave a sudden, surprising after-burn. There was some 'bite' in there, but only just. I've sampled worse lagers but as an ale drinker this was definitely not a beer to write home about. It would go well with frites and mayonnaise but that's about all that can be said for it. Not unpleasant to drink but nothing particularly characterful either.

#1713 - Blind-tasted except for the beer's name and brewery/country, zero reviews below read (yet!)…
L- Bright clear gold. Pours with 3mm white head.
S- Very mild, just some bready notes.
T- Overall it's almost a mild as the smell, though it does have some relatively prominent but mono-dimensional dry hops. I get little else apart from what I refer to as a 'carbonic note', it's the very dry CO2 taste you get in plain soda water, that seems to be prominent here perhaps in the absence of much else bar the hops.
F- 'Carbonic', dry, austere.
O- Lacks depth (body), breadth (a range of flavour notes, not even more than just one/hops), or anything really for me to enjoy this. I'm really surprised, it's very rare I try a new Belgian beer and it fails - here via shear boredom - to do anything for me. It's the strangest thing, it has so little flavour that it barely registers on the palate as a beer at all! Frankly it's a bit of a write-off...
Review/scoring all done, now the reveal, I get to read the bottle lables to see what I missed!
330ml bottle BB: 09/12/2021 £2.18 Bought from BelgianBeerCompany, Stoke/UK as part of a large pick-your own consignment to London.
