La Claire Fontaine est une bière blonde brillante et limpide. Ses bulles très fines lui confèrent une effervescence vive et une mousse crémeuse. Au nez, elle évoque des arômes de caramel et de brioche avec des notes fruitées de banane et d’abricot. Plus subtilement, on découvre l’arôme du houblon et de noisettes. En bouche, elle offre des saveurs sucrées de pain relevées d’une subtile amertume. Cette bière, avec ses pointes minérales légèrement salée et sa mince densité en bouche, est très rafraîchissante et désaltérante.

[1] Review by Chopz from Cantley, Canada who has tried this beer once. (7/27/2006 9:42:19 PM)
"Bought at La Trappe À Fromage in Gatineau, Quebec. Best before August 2006... close call. Pours a golden-yellow colour with lots of carbonation. The white head is wet and bubbly, disappearing quickly, leaving no lace. The nose is grainy with malts and has hints of perfum. The taste is kind of weird, with something that reminds me of coconut and wax. Quite anoying, as it stayed into the aftertaste. Their buckwheat beer (Ambrée de Sarrasin) is much better."

[2] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (7/17/2006 3:15:34 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a golden yellow color ale with a medium bubbly white head with minimal retention. Aroma of sweet malt is quite weak. Taste is sweet malt without any noticeable hops and a light body. Not bad just incredibly bland tasting."

[3] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer once. (5/28/2005 8:22:53 PM)
"Bottled: The pour put a pale yellow, lightly hazed ale in my tulip with a nice compact frothy cap. Lively effervescence. Nose is of buttery caramel and apricots. Light bodied ale has a spritzy moth to it...mild bready taste puncuated by musty nut tones ( almonds) finish is tangy, fruity and clean...a savory thirst buster.
