3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Found this beer on clearance for a few bucks at a local grocery store. Pours a clear golden color with a thick white head that leaves a great lacing. Aroma has a noble hops (Saaz) note to it, lots of pilsner malt notes and light yeasty tones come out as well. Flavor starts off with a light grassy and floral flavor, moving into a light spicy Saaz flavor moves into a pretty prevalent pale malt note with some light Vienna characteristics and ends with a slightly sour fruity note. Carbonation is pretty high and density has a medium mouth feel. Overall a pretty example for the style but there was a slight skunky note to it but otherwise was pretty good.

UPDATED: JUN 14, 2009 Bottle. Sweet malty thing with a belgian yeast touch. Like a better version of Leffe Blond.

Bottle from lone hill. Clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Sweet malty aroma and taste. Fairly one dimensional.

The aromas and impressions are floral above all. Floral with a hunch of grass. It has a nice smell of apricots. Goes with almost everything that is steaked or grilled.

Mine didn’t come in a can like over in that picture over there, it’d be pretty awesome if it did though! The beer poured a deep blonde with a good head and a huge effervescence. The aroma is spicy and salty and a little bit faint. The flavor has a good fruity quality with some peaches and pears with a dry chardonnay character and some good spicy hops.

I really like this beer a lot. It is like a lighter version of belgian styles. No bacteria funk like some other beers in this category. Nice subtle hoppiness - good level of sweetness (balancing, not overwhelming). Very carbonated, but it works. Some of that pruney belgian flavor, but less than most. Coats the mouth. I like this stuff, almost as much as the pepsi throwback I had earlier today.

330ml Bottle (Drink, Tallinn) - Golden in colour. Fruity and hoppy aroma with a hint of sweetness. Fruity taste with some nice bitter elements and some slightly spicy malty notes.
