Clear yellow with a off white head. Fruity, slight spicy with a quite weak palate & finish. Not one of the better blonds out there!

(Bottle, BB 10-05-07) Pours a clear golden body with a medium white head. Aroma of caramel, florals, mustiness, and sweet corn. Flavor of sweet citrus, malt, and yeast.

275ml bottle from Franglais, Calais. Gold/copper colour with thin white head. Yeasty pale malt/cereal aroma. Bit of staleness to the malt which then becomes more juicy in the mouth. Yeah, not a bad blonde with some herbyness

Clear golden colour with a white head. Sweet malty aroma with some spiciness. Sweet malty flavor. Malty finish with some hints of bitterness.

Clear golden with medium white head. Aroma is medium sweet, Belgian yeast, alcohol -- suggests a light body, yet a powerful one. Taste is fairly sweet, yeasty, spicy (orange peel, coriander), with warming alcohol in the swallow. Full-bodied, mildly carbonated.

Bottled. Clear golden beer with an aroma of yeast, citrus, apples, sugar and some bitterness. The flavor is fruity, with apples, some citric notes and cellar. Medium body. A well-balanced beer, but maybe a bit too commercial. (060908)

Botella. Hazy yellow like colour with a big white head, Aroma of fruit and wheat with Belgian yeast. Sweet yeasty wheaty flavour, fruity like, bit banana, sweet.

Bottle. [thank you, Bigbro!]
Pours a clear golden with a medium frothy white head. Aroma is lightly exotic fruity, oranges, lemons, grapefruit as well as a little ashes. Wonderful creamy mouthfeel. Extremely well-rounded flavours, oranges, wheat, apples, youghurt, caramel and a weak well-balanced hoppyness.

bottle from beer planet clear yellow, smooth white head. aroma of yellow fruits. sort of fresh. marcipan. banana. flavor is pretty sweet, banana, yellow fruits, ripe banana, You have to be into pretty sweet beers to really get this one i think. tastes like a blend of a real belgian blonde and a german wheat beer.

The head is nice and lasting on this golden beer. The aroma has notes of yeast and coriander. The flavour is sweetish with sourish notes and coriander. It’s like it hasn’t gotten that little extra, that makes it worth remembering...
