Fred82 (343), Montreal, Quebec, Canada Aug 15, 2009 bottle. Pours clear yellow with medium fizy head that is short lived. Aroma is malty, a bit of hops. Not very good aroma. Taste is a bit spicy, with some belgian yeast. There is also some hints of fruits and the finish is somewhat alcoholic. Not bad but quite ordinary. plovmand (1588), Helsinge, Denmark Jul 16, 2009 Bottle. Clear golden body with a small diminishing white head. Yeasty and fruity aroma with some goldings hops. Bitter flavour with some yeast, fresh spicy fruit and light alcohol. Medium bodied. Slokop (91), Tilburg, Netherlands Jul 14, 2009 Huge head of clear white foam, golden body. It starts with a fine bitter, tiny sweet and full body. Not much aftertaste, just slight presence over some time. More of a firm beer than its percentage of alcohol would make you think. Fine beer but not outstanding amongst the many blonds around. Nicko (187), Ashfield, Australia Jul 12, 2009 Bottle, clear golden with a small white head. Aromas all sweet, sweet bananas to me, like the sweets you used to buy in a paper bag at the milk bar. Maybe with a couple of musk sticks thrown in too. Very pleasant but fairly plain in the mouth, no specific aftertaste; should be chocolate freckles. downender (2535), Bristol, Gloucestershire, England Jul 11, 2009 Bottle. Slightly hazy and deep golden in colour with next to no head. Sweet, fruity aroma with oranges, bananas and yeast evident. Flavour had the same sweetness, with a grainy character and short bitter finish. Tasted a bit artificial all round. Ok. Bontus (291), Waasmunster, Belgium Jul 10, 2009 On tap.
Pours clear golden. La Trappe specific aroma, rather sweet flavor. Very clean beer, uncomplex. DeanF (285), Paris, France Jul 5, 2009 Pours with a big trappiest head, but doesn’t hold on as long as other trappists. Aroma is of orange and citrus, slight alcohol. Taste is smooth, nice mouthfeel, citrus notes, some grains, slightly sweet aftertaste. Not a bad beer, but not in the league of other trappist blondes. aru (105), Smørum, Denmark Jul 3, 2009 Well a nice blond good for a sunny hot evening. Yellow color with white head. Fresh aroma and a rather rich body.
