This is one of my favorite beers, mainly because it is so readily available(year round) and very affordable. It is a lovely change from all the "Tripel" and pale ales that so many stores are ready to recommend.
Now to the beer:
I prefer the can, simply because it chills faster for me and pours smoothly, with a small cascading effect into the 50cl glass I use. The color is a nice copper red, and you get just enough head so that you don't have to wait to drink it. The taste itself is quite "caramelized" , with no hints of hops. The smell is "malty", and the carbonation is hardly noticeable, which makes this beer somewhat unique considering it is nitrogenated.
The beer is very low in alcohol and makes for a pleasant and light starter, especially if you plan on doing more drinking later in the evening. No bias here, but this beer gets the four pint rating, simply because it is drinkable all year long.
