Lefebvre Floreffe Blonde

Brewed by Brasserie Lefebvre
Style: Belgian Ale
Rebecq-Quenast, Belgium

Golden yellow color, with medium head, spicy and fruity aroma, fruity and spicy flavor.

330ml bottle (Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam)
Orange, scummy head. Sweet fruity aroma - bucket-loads of esters. Tangy, sweet, almost sour, but slightly alcoholic, malty body. Pleasant raw hoppy finish. Not quite crisp enough to press my blonde buttons, probably a tad too sweet. However, not a bad experience at all.

Draught. Pours golden yellow with a medium white head. Flowery and spicy aroma. Fruity and spicy flavour. Good refreshing beer.

Bottiglia da 33cl all’Exultate accompagnata con misto freddo di mare (carpaccio di tonno, carpaccio di spada, cocktail di gamberetti + insalata... che piatto buono e fresco per una giornata così calda e afosa). La curiosità e la voglia di bere qualcosa di leggero e dissetante mi spingono ad optare per questa belgian ale semplice e a dire la verità pure un poco noiosa; la sua dolcezza mi spiazza, soprattutto nell’aroma: il sapore è più bilanciato e si lascia godere con una discreta beverinità. Niente di speciale, però neanche cattiva; la definirei un decoroso standard.

Bottled(330ml). -Golden coloured, huge white head that went away fast, fruity nose. Sweet malty, light yeasty, faint fruity and a bit alcoholic taste, but overall quite weak and boring belgian ale. Mild spicy finish.

On tap @ Café Gollem. A very mediocre blond beer, faint malty and fruity flavours. Soft, but too bland and lightbodied.

33cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex brew, clear, small head, nothing special

Bottle, bought @ Bjergtrolden, Roskilde.
Pours coppery golden with a fine, medium, creamy, white head. Aroma is very bready malts, some light yeast and oranges. Fine, rather creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet, lightly citric with clear notes of oranges and a definitive yeast character. Fine.
