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)

Bouteille 33 cl du Grain d’Orge - Neuchâte (CH). Blonde à mousse blanche et pétillement moyen. Nez de malt, blé, fruit, levure be et houblon. La bouche est douce-amère, maltée, fruitée, pas trop sucrée avec un tantinet d’amertume. Crémeuse, bel équilibre des saveurs, amertume-acidité, nette tendance abbaye triple.

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.
