3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle courtesy of and shared with ozujsko (thanks!)
Poured a dull hazy orange-gold body with a big thick white head that went away at a medium pace. Intensive aroma of oranges and yeast, quite Belgian. The taste is suprisingly pleasant as well. Again the pleasant notes of orange, a nice, herbal fresh agrumey hopiness, as someone said before, reminiscent of some pale ales. Some dry spicey notes, a touch of yeast near the finish and a lightly hoppy aftertaste. A nice surprise and a good light belgian style ale.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Cloudy golden coloured, yeast floating around, big lasting head. Fruity nose, citrus and orange. Some yeast as well. Sour flavour, lots of carbonation. Fruity notes dominate. Sour finish. Refreshing blonde ale. Thanks to my girlfriend for bringing it from Val Thorens :-).
2.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Large stable white creamy head. Aroma ofhops, fruits, honey, malt. Light malt flavour, light metal. A little bit to weak flavour.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Taste this last week at Val Cenis.
Bottle 33 cl. Blond-golden colour with a white head. Malty aroma. Hoppy, sweet fruity and floral taste. Dry, but not bad.
3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Intense fresh, spicy and fruity aroma’s with banana, coriander, aromatic hops and honey. Light acidity in the mouth, light body, a bit fizzy. The finish is hoppy, slightly bitter, fruity, green, and at the end there is some caramel.
I think this beer is underrated. It’s an unique refreshing beer with a nice fruityness and very nice hops. The body is light and that is why this beer is so refreshing. Perfect beer for a beerhunter suffering from a hot summers day.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottled. This blond ale was better than most other Belgian / French blond ales. The yeast taste was fortunately not present, which gave room for the fruity and spicey notes. A good refreshing ale and relatively "clean".
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. A blonde beer with a thin white head and a touch of lacing. The aroma is hoppy and slightly peppery spicy in a very Belgian way. The taste is also spicy hops. Rather thin in the mouth and a little salty, but still nicely pleasant.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
33cl bottle from Auchan, Calais. Attractive aroma. Golden colour with sediment in suspension. Good quality hop nose, some astringency. Having drunk a lot of French beer this last month or so, this is one of the better ones. I really like the hop aroma on this. Good in mouth with hoppy finish reminiscent of the flavours of an IIPA but far more subtle and far less in your face.
