COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The masterpiece of the brewery. The beer that mostly encountered the favour among the customers at Le Baladin. Although one wouldn’t believe that, it’s the most alcoholic among all the productions. It originated from an old recipe created toward the end of the ’800 following the style of the belgian abbey beers. Intense aroma of warm flowers, apricot and banana and hints of bitter almond. Agreeable, refreshing and quenching taste of apricot in syrup, almond cake and citrus fruits. Excellent the use of belgian selected hop during the fermentation process. This beer matches perfectly with ripen cheeses, biscuits and almond sweets.

DSG (3994) - Tel Aviv, ISRAEL - JUN 19, 2013
Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks Naama. Murky orange-amber. Aroma of malt, dried apricots and prunes, honey, and orange marmalade. Sweet malty flavor with honey, fruits and a bit of caramel. Medium-bodied.

Bière-Luc (359) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - MAY 29, 2013
Cuivrée et voilée avec ue mince mousse crémeuse. Nez de caramel, de fruits rouges et de sucre brun. En bouche, un fruité-sucré domine sur une bière assez aqueuse en somme. Bonne bière; pas une découverte.

MacMoney (792) - Alabama, USA - MAY 26, 2013
25cl bottle, 10/05/13, BBE 04/13. Pours dark auburn. Aroma is ethanolic, fruity with dry and sour apple. Taste is sweet with caramel, fruitiness, dried fruit. Light touch of ethanol. Dries up on the finish turning a bit sour with apple. Medium, not much carbonation.

RexTalionis (1531) - FINLAND - MAY 24, 2013
Bottle 25 cl, BBE 09/2014. Pours light amber in color with a thick and creamy off-white head. Dark fruits, nuttyness, sweet brown sugar in aroma. Delicate and sweet, feels very nice. Quite nutty in taste, sweet marzipan, sligthly vinous too. Dry in that matter as well. I do like this, it’s tasty and easy to drink and the nuttyness seems to fit in here just about right. There’s even some slight notes of burnt wood in aftertaste. Huge beer in small bottle.

Brandman (1456) - Helsinki, FINLAND - MAY 19, 2013
Orange to brown body, offwhite head. Aroma has raisins, cookie dough, toffee, nuts and sweet malt and bit fruity yeast. Flavour is sugary sweet, raisins, some fruits, cola in aftertaste and remarkable alcohol. Quite oily and nicely balanced.

TarcisioVasco (131) - Ribeirão Preto (SP)., BRAZIL - MAY 15, 2013
A cervejaria italiana Le Baladin é muito respeitada, mas suas cervejas não estão ente as minhas prediletas. A Super peca pela pouca carbonatação (característica de muitas Baladin que chegam ao Brasil), e pelo adocicado excessivo, que na minha opinião prejudicam seu drinkability.

September 2010. Bottle. Caramel and malt aromas. Color is a hazy orange with a fizzy white head due to high carbonation. Flavors are sweet, sugary and caramel.
