special belgian ale, red brillant, foam beautiful like in the fermentation, full of taste, caramel is sweet, but important effect of the hops, body structured full, something smoke, raisin, little ginger. In the finish is fine bitter. A very artisanal quality with intesive and durable taste. My prefered belgian ale.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20 Travlr (4527) - Washington, Washington DC, USA - JAN 7, 2010
Deep amber color with a medium white head that settles quickly to reveal little to no lacing.
Aroma of bread dough, malts and orange peel.
Flavor is dominated by the malts, with moderate spices, not a bad flavor, but nothing too complex.
Decent enough body, but nothing special.
A good blonde ale, but not outstanding.
