Great looking beer... tastes even better. Very well integrated alcohol flavor. This ones complex and fruity. Very easy to drink given its 8% ABV. Very nice flavor profile.

DKthe13 (52), Netherlands Oct 5, 2009 A belgian blond with spices in the nose, taste and in the after taste. Not a pure blond, and with all that sugar added, not my kind of beer. Good beer to start learning to drink special beers. ChainGangGuy (2523), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA Oct 2, 2009 11.2 ounce bottle - $4.29 at Hop City in Atlanta, Georgia. Best Before End 2011.
Appearance: Pours out a lightly hazy, golden-hued body with a wispy, white head.
Smell: Aroma of honey-flavored candy with supplementary notes of herbaceous coriander, sugar-sweetened lemon juice, Granny Smith apples spritzed with alcohol, and some soft pastoral florals.
Taste: Sweet, honeyish malt character attacked with a blitz of sweet fruitiness -- lemon, green apple, and even an indistinct tropical fruit character cross the tongue. Meager touch of coriander. Faint floral character from the hops as well as a mild bitterness. Additional spiciness imparted by the Belgian yeast. Minor hint of alcohol, though very well-integrated considering the purported 8%. Finishes dry with lasting hints of fruit and spice.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium-plus carbonation.
Drinkability: Easily likable, and easily drinkable (at least in the 11.2 ounce format), it’s a tasty, well-fortified Belgian blonde.
