COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
HELLEKAPELLE from Brouwerij de Bie is an unusual pale ale with a straw color, hoppy aroma, light to medium body and clean malty flavor. It’s bitterness that starts in the middle of the palate and dominates through to the finish comes from Poperinge hops, wonderful thirst quencher.

jbrus (4992) - Delft, NETHERLANDS - DEC 1, 2001
Malty, fruity aroma. Some mild cherry. After opening, the yeast on the bottom started floating in the bottle by the carbonation. So it was cloudy in the glass. Oker/amber (straw) colour. Hoppy, bit malt sweet, malt flavors. Finishes bitter with the typical poperinge hop bitterness.

fishman (350) - Philadelphia, USA - SEP 8, 2001
Musty aroma, lots of floating yeast. Soft, and much smoother than other blonde ales. Just Ok, nothing outstanding, but the aroma hurts it. Oh well.

Delbomber (387) - Philadelphia, USA - SEP 8, 2001
Subtle candyish cherry aroma, with a sweet taste comprised mainly of strawberry and cherry flavors. Do not judge this beer by its aroma, which is deceptively boring. Fittingly, mild yeast flavor was apparent, coinciding with the massive chunks of yeast floating in the glass. Soft tartness to the finish, this is a very soft beer.
