Lindeboom Gouverneur Blonde

Bottle 33 cl. at nationaal park de Groote Peel. Pours an orange yellow/golden with a small white head and an aroma of grass, hops, citrus and fresh malt. The flavour is sweet with sweet malts, caramel, salmiak, hops and some alcohol. The finish is bitter hoppy. A very drinkable beer.

At tap, Bruxelles at sea, Zandvoort. Gold-coloured, normal head, not very dense. Hoppy one, considering the bitterness. In overall not very special.

At vonk slijterij in Zaandam, Dark golden, small creamy head, Grainy one, some fruits and sweets but with some unpleasant alcohol/bitter kind of aroma.

(Draught@Arendsnest) Clear golden with a small head. Aroma of honey-sweetish malt and lots of cardboard. Cardboady, grainy-malty flavor with honey sweetness and some acidity. Medium body with soft carbonation. A dull and cardboardy blonde.

Bottle. A very mediocre blond beer. Sweet, fruity, malty/grainy, a bit watery.

draft - Pours golden with a decent head. The flavor is sweet and the beer is watery and thoroughly uninteresting. It’s not terrible, but I certainly can’t recommend it.

At De Wildeman. Distinct vegetable aroma. Clear dark golden colour. Nice, stable white head. The flavour has a rough bitterness and a little vegetable. Sourish grain notes, too. OK mouthfeel.

Bottle at home. Watery. Golden head. Some foam. Sweet, malty and a bit spicy. Sugary, bubblegum flavour.
