Bottle. Pours with a white foamy head over a clear golden body. Subtle taste and aroma of grain and tropical fruits, balanced, but with a sweet aftertaste. Medium bodied. Nice, but nothing special.

Bottle 0,33ltr: The blond one drunk this Blonde-brew in the Ardennes last weekend, quite sweet but not overwhelming.

Bottle 25cl. A yellow cloudy ale with medium head. A good blond beer, quite malty, pleasant very drinkable, with bitter finish, just too agrume notes, a nice blond no too alcoholic.

250ml bottle. Bright orange with a white head. Aroma has dough, a little cheese, candi sugar, orange rind. Taste has sugary sweetness with some pears and orange. Some mild spices at the end. A little flat tasting - this bottle’s probably past its best.

Bottle. Pours a deep golden beer with decent white head. Nice aroma with some sweet notes, bread and some honey. Taste is quite sweet with some sour finish. Just a decent normal blonde beer.

Bottle at home. Clear golden pour, thin white head. Aroma of overripe fruits like apple, pear and banana, some alcohol and sugary malts. Flavor is quite sweet and malty, somewhat fruity and slightly sour with a hint of bitter in the finish. Creamy texture and lively carbonation.

Bright golden, very clear body with no head. Roasty, floral and dough in aroma. Somewhat sweet considering the dry aroma with a light bitterness. Very watery. Thin texture and no real aftertaste. Disappointing overall. (Bottle 25cl, 1,60 EUR)

Pours a clear golden color with a small white head. Aroma of malts, corn, grain, and alcohol. Flavors of malts, corn, grains, with hints of vanilla and spices. Good carbonation, light sweet and bitter.
