Commercial Description:
Unfiltered bottle.
Ingredients: Water, Barely Malt, Hops, Yeast.
Christoffel Blond is a bottom fermented golden-coloured beer with a full body, a very balanced taste and a beautiful bitterness due to a generous addition of fresh hop during the brewing-process. The aroma is fruity and has a fresh taste with a pleasant, hoppy finish.

Bottled. Sampled at Delirium Café, Göteborg. Hazy copper colour. Amber malty with hints of toffee and diacetyl. Bitterness was low. I found this to be a malt-accentuated beer with some residual sugars. Pretty boring.

Moderately bitter aroma with notes of lemon and banana. Pours a large white head which produces good lacing and is mostly lasting. Appearance is hazy yellow. Initial flavour is moderately bitter and the finish is dry with moderate bitterness and light sweetness. The bitterness and alcohol produce a slight warming effect. Carbonation is soft to lively. A very good beer.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Best... lager... ever.... Slightly cloudy yellow with white medium head. The aroma has an enormous amount of hops, herbal and piney, with a little bit of yeast, some orange peel. Spritzy and refreshing mouthfeel with a great puckeringly dry bitter finish.

This is a new beer and brewer for me. Sampled from a rather cool design 11.2 oz brown bottle this beer pours a slightly hazy medium pale yellow color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is fairly faint but does contain a dry floral hop element. The flavor is fairly typical macro style sour malts with a faint bitter floral hop element. There is a mildly grassy undertone. The finish is bitter. This beer is really rather crappy. I am amazed at reading all the rave reviews here.

Belle couleur jaune luminescente allant vers le dorée, apparence brouillée aux évidences d’absence de filtration. Énorme mousse blanche, crémeuse et persistante laissant éventuellement une fine couche sur le dessus du précieux liquide. Malt légèrement grillé à la référence de pain et grains matures offrant le parfait support à cette symphonie de houblons aromatiques. Un champs de verdure relie le présent à l’infini… herbes exquises, fleurs, citrons, meringue et fruits tels ananas et mangue…Incroyablement complexe. Une défiante épaisseur de malt relie soigneusement chacune des composantes aromatiques. La finale amère vient nous surprendre à chacune des gorgées….puis, tout le cycle recommence…
On peut s’attarder à sa complexité ou encore l’oublié pour tout simplement jouir du cadeau spirituel qu’elle nous offre. Corps d’épaisseur moyenne à pleine, carbonatation fine, active et doucement piquante. Bouteille, 33cl. Qui l’aurait cru…c’est vraiment vraiment exquis. Merci S !
