3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Sampled at the Resto Grill De Trompet in Ieper, usual blonde style ale with some elevated alcohol levels. Some spices, but too mild in that category to be a great beer. The flavor was somewhat sweet, but not too thick of a mouthfeel or richness. As much a session beer as one could be at these higher ABV and sweetness/richness levels. A nice local Ieper beer.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Ridicously (unless for the brewer) high yellow-peach head, leaving lace; orange-gold beer. Bit soapy nose, garden herbs (chervil), gassy. Surprisingly fruity (citrussy, or peach/nectarine), obviously from the yeast, as yeasty components, like meaty notes, abund in the beer. Tastes very young. Light to medium bodied. Filterered, but the feel is quite yeast)oriented, creamy. Aftertaste is sweet. I’m not impressed. Too neutral-sweet by half. This seems the retaking of an abandonned name.
