ration (335) - Tampere, FINLAND - DEC 23, 2011
Bottle. Pours light golden with a frothy head. Looks like a lager. Aroma strong belgian yeast and some hops. Ditto on the taste. A very typical belgian blonde. Not Bad.

This is a quality beer; but too sweet for me; rich and creamy but you either like a sweet beer or not; I don’t.

Fles 30cl Kleur: Goudgeel met een brede witte schuimkraag. Die mooi op het bier blijft staan. Geur: Mout, niet erg definieerbaar. Smaak: Zoet en bitter, nasmaak is wat scherp. Lekker blondbier.

mile (1221) - Helsinki, FINLAND - DEC 8, 2011
Bottle. Golden, average and mostly diminishing head. Moderate to full, malty and caramel sweet aroma, fruitiness and some yeast. Body is medium, malty and sweetish flavor, faint alcohol. Finish is average, malty and sweetish, some fruitiness and some alcohol. OK but at the same time quite one-dimensional Belgian ale. Alcohol makes the finish bit drier - still too sweet for me.

TET (685) - FINLAND - DEC 5, 2011
A golden beer with a medium and white head. Aroma is slightly aromatic, fruits, some spicyness, overally aroma is very typical belgian ale, but still not very temptating. Taste is similar than aroma, quite nice, but nothing special, fruits and spicyness. Medium bodied, sligtly sparkling carbonation. Quite strange beer, everything are in right places, but still it feels that easiest way is chosen, this beer isn’t convence me.
