Muy buena entrada en boca, el tipico sabor a cereal (floral) de la binchoise cubre rapidamente la primera sensacion amarga, deja un bouquet suave, afrutado y ligero aunque redondo

330 ml. bottle. Hazy pale golden colour, good head that fades quickly but leaves an impressive lace. Spicy aroma, mostly maybe coriander, some pepper, vanilla and maybe cardamom. It feels good in tongue, carbonated, balanced. Taste is spicy too, maybe with more fruity notes, appe and tropica fruits. For once, it’s a worthwhile belgian beer adapted to a different taste without being just a bad nonsense liquid. IMO, just a bit too sweet.

Bottle from Au Grain d’Orge, Crissier, Switzerland
Cloudy blond color; high carbonation, producing a big head. It has the usual Belgian aroma of spicy yeast and old hops; some coriander. Spicy malt flavor, at the same time biting/dry but also lightly sweet; the mouthfeel is smooth (highly carbonated); the body is well structured. Correct bitterness for this kind of beer.
Indeed fairly well brewed and pleasant.

Dark yellow coloured and unclear. Tiny particles. Has a white head, mostly lasting. Sweet, yeasty aroma, faint barnyard and cheese. Flavor starts moderate to heavy sweet, some fruit, moderate bitter finish. Creamy, dry texture and soft carbonation.

Bottled. A hazy yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma has notes of fruit, yeast, and malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of yeast, alcohol, lots of fruit, dusty hops, and malt, leading to a dry finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.

De un color dorado pálido, turbia debido a que está sin filtrar. Su cabeza es blanca pero menuda y de poca persistencia. Presenta sedimentación. (3/5) En nariz tiene un punto floral (¿a rosas?) típico de las cervezas elaboradas por la Brasserie de la Binchoise. Los tonos afrutados predominan. (8/10) Gran cuerpo pese a su gasificación media-baja. (3/5) Una cerveza muy agradable con una entrada suave pero con buena consistencia, buenos matices en boca los sabores afrutados predominan claramente sobre el resto. Se encuentra un toque amargo, pero muy suave. Buena persistencia. El regusto es suave como la entrada y al final aparece un leve sabor a levadura. (8/10) Suave y agradable con un buen cuerpo que le proporciona la triple fermentación. Predominan los tonos afrutados que se mantienen hasta el final de la cata. No encuentran tonos etílicos, su contenido alcohólico que queda totalmente disimulado. Para mi gusto le falta un toque de amargor. Los posos y el final a levadura indica que su tercera fermentación en botella esta incompleta y que es una cerveza que todavía evolucionará mucho, será interesante probarla más adelante para seguir esta evolución. Una cerveza interesante. (12/20)
