| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jan 16, 2007 Solid, if unspectacular. Certainly not up to the stands set by other Trappist products. Looks good, but with a LOT of carbonation. Doesn’t have a strong aroma or defining taste. Like drinking an attempted trappist beer bridge (659), Sydney, Australia
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 16, 2007 Poured with a fairly lively head that left quite quickly. The liquid below is a slightly opaque golden orange. Early aroma is a yeasty banana whiff while the head is present, but this gives way to a more thick and syrupy canned fruit. On tasting there’s a little bit of zing from some rearguard bitterness, but it is a little lacking in oomph everywhere. Thin bodied and with a strange corny lager aftertaste it manages to fall away a bit drastically at the end. Maria (6167), Thisted, Denmark
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 4, 2007 Updated: Jan 6, 2007Nice golden with a huge, white head. The aroma is floral and fruity. Flavour, well I admit that La Trappe has a very, special place in my heart, I simply like their beers!! It starts sweet and lightly spicy wit a strong fruity note, I get green, sweet grapes, flower honey and the aroma of summer transformed into taste. A light citrus kicks in just before the finish. Balanced, uncomplicated and nice - and extremely charming. Glouglouburp (2811), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 2.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Dec 29, 2006 Cloudy dirty blond body with a long-lasting small white head. A bit stinky with a ripe pear and peach aroma. Maybe a bit too ripe. Taste is dominated by fruitiness (peach, peach and various citrus fruits). Some cereals, a little caramel and a lick on of a fruity candy. Not very pleasant. Certainly the worst trappist beer I’ve had. La Crap Blond. Stew41 (1050), Caulfield, Australia

Fairly standard blond ale, no world beater but quite solid. Sweetish malts drive the front and middle palate but the flavours do fade away somewhat in the back palate.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 22, 2006 Bottle, December 2006. Shinny bright golden color with vivid carbonatation and a medium bubbly white head. Aroma is strange mixture between yeast, bananas and slightly phenols. Some fruit at the end. Taste is yeasty, spicy, esthery, a little restrained, not very complex. Medium to light aftertaste, some earthy hops at the end. Bart (1625), Vosselaar, Belgium

Fruity yeasty aroma. Medium to full body.Rather alcoholic yeasty finish. I had better Belgian Ales tomthompson89 (1473), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
