Brasserie de Saint-Omer "Helbrau"

.66€ @ Leader Price, 43 Rue Cler, Paris, FR
Notes via stream of consciousness: So, first of all I'm confused by this beer because it says right on the front of the label "Bière des Flandres" and yet the Brasserie de Saint-Omer is in France, not Belgium. Or does that just mean in the style of a beer from Flandres? I may be missing something, I'm not that well acquainted with the different regions, so I'll just forget about it. What I have in front of me is more of a basic Euro pale lager or "pils", although to be a "pils" I'd expect a little more hops. Actually a lot more hops. It's OK though, it's got a clear golden body, a short head of white, and a clean, malty aroma. What hops are present are minimal, and I'm guessing they've used hop extract. Nothing is listed on the label as an ingredient other than barley malt. A moderate bitterness balances it, and it's a touch sweetish and corn-like in the otherwise fairly dry finish. It's medium bodied and very gently crisp, probably part of the reason that its head simply dropped a moment after pouring and left only minor lacing behind. Overall it's basic and boring, but fairly well made and refreshing on a hot day. Not the best, not the worst.
