Birra dal sapore non troppo ricercato, schiuma poco persistente, colore biondo opaco ma non troppo. Non lascia il segno ma tutto sommato gradevole.

On tap. Clear blonde pour. Aroma is yeast, slight caramel and clove. Light and sweet. Flavours of banana, yeast a little raisin and slight booziness on the finish, but all in all very well balanced and smooth for 7%. They’re right - a "classic blonde" that is "eminently drinkable." Very good for its category. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Ale belga assolutamente di rilievo. Al naso è decisa con spiccate tonalità maltate e di pane. In bocca è intensa ma equilibrata leggermente floreale. Ottima.
