Commercial Description:
After the blond and brown version, the brewery made a third type of beer: the 'Bloesem Bink' (Blossom Bink). It’s a beer of high fermentation, unfiltered and not pasteurized, with secundary fermentation in the bottle. We brew this seasonal beer every year in the same period (spring-summer). The ingredients are: five types of malt, one belgian type of hop, brewing liquor, yeast, honey from Sint-Truiden and syrup of pears from Vrolingen. It tastes fruity with a lightly sweet character and a long fruity and bitter aftertaste. The alcohol content of this springbeer is 7,1% vol.alc.

A hazy dark amber beer with a thin light brown head. The aroma is complex with notes of alcohol, prunes, malt, fruit, and caramel. The flavor is sweet and with strong notes of over ripe fruit combined with a light dustyness, leading to a dry very fruity end. The sweetness is a bit cloying.

Bottled. Orange-brown. Aroma of pear and marmalade. Sweet and honeyish with soft mouthfeel and a fruit salad finish. A lot of interesting things going on here.

(Bottle 33 cl) Hazy amber colour with a creamy, off-white head. Sweetish notes of honey and especially pear sirup. But not overly sweet or cloying. just yummy. 170501

Cloudy medium brown with a fairly rich head. Mild chocolate, rose petals, wildflower honey, dates and moon cake in the aroma. Sweet palate with a hint of acidity in the back to cut through and keep it lively. Flavours are subdued relative to the aroma, but still with the date-like, chocolate-accented malts. Well-structured, fairly easy drinking beer.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy and golden deep orange to brown with a creamy and light tan head. Dense caramel malt aroma, also light fruity to flowery. Flavour is dark malty, roasted and slight metallic. Light yeasty touch. Followed by a mild fruity finish gliding down from the dense caramel everlasting flavour into a smooth and wellbalanced finish.
