(Bottle 75 cl) Hazy golden with a fine head. Spicy with lots of malt and some notes of citrus and honey. Way too carbonated. This reminds me more of a bland, standard Belgian Blond. I loved the Roja - this is disappointing. 120805

3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Hazy blond color; nice creamy head. Mild aroma, of malt, a bit spicy and with a touch of citrus fruits and lemon peel. Good mouthfeel, strong and smooth, with some malt flavor, elegant spices, lemon peel and a sour touch from the wild yeast, which is probably the only trace of the oak cask. Correct bitterness. Very pleasant.
