Sample at the Mondial, from 330 ml bottle. Bright gold with decent retention of the foamy snowy topping...lots of vanilla, cookie-yeast, orange in the sweet nose redolent of pastry shops...low carbonation, light alcohol presence, moderately sweet and fairly yeasty body...creamy front and middle, thins a bit and dries out considerably towards the finish.

Bottle from Asao. Malty aroma, bread and crackers, light citrus, grass, and a touch of honey. Medium gold with a low head. Somewhat sweet and fruity, a bit tart, with noticeable alcohol, honey, some bread. Lemony, with light bitterness. Decent enough. Light but smooth, rther refreshing, though not very special.                                                                                       

Not a really good blond strong ale. Hazy blond color, fair smell and taste. Good carbo and body.

Thanks bierkoning! Deep orange, yeasty hazy color, small white head. Aroma has peach, grapefruit and pepper. Medium to full bodied. Quite fruity and sweet: peach, orange jam/marmalade. Then some spices and alcohol in the finish. This is drinkable, decent dessert beer.

330 ml bottle. Slightly hazy, golden with a white head. Aroma is fruity, spicy and yeasty. Flavor is sweet, light malty, spicy and yeast. Very typical Belgium but pretty average as well. I like it but I wont do much effort to hunt it down.

Slow gusher. Medium lasting head. Yellow body with lots of carbonation. Faint mealy herbal aroma with fruity notes. Dry-sweet tropical fruit and herbs taste with mealy notes. Very light and anonymous. Delicate. Light body. Mild, faintly hot mouthfeel. Dry herbal spicy grassy aftertaste with toffee and soft metal notes, plus faint butter. The butter lingers. Easy to drink, delicate, harmonic, but not very complex. (0.33l bottle, de Biertempel, Brugge.)

Cloudy pale blonde with an open head. Typical Belgian ale with nill carbonation malty & heady. Some citrus & hops. Thin malty beer, smooth in the mouth and very little aftertaste. Found at Parap Fine Foods Darwin NT.
