Pours hazy amber with a moderate frothy head. Aroma of yeast, sweet fruit and spice (coriander). Flavour is moderately malty sweet with fruit and balancing hop bitterness. Medium body with soft carbonation. Finish is long rather dry and hop bitter. It is a very tasty blonde.

11.2 oz bottle, best before 06 2011. Slightly chilled.
Pours into my tulip a clear, pale amber with a big, billowing, foamy off-white head. As it recedes it does leave some very nice lacing.
Smell is prototypical Belgian pale It has a nice graininess, but also a fragrant yeast twang. It is mostly fruity, with a tiny hint of hoppy spice.
The flavor is the same with more fruit, more twang, and a slight alcoholic tinge. The hops linger over the rest of the beer with a nice subtlety.
It is a solid pale ale, one that I would go back to, and one that s fairly cheap as well.

C’est une bonne bière. Sa bouteille est relativement élégante, et son gout est très satisfaisant.

On the whole, a very delicious beer. The nose, smells moderately of corriander (or some herbacious quality), a strong wheat mid-tone, and a faint banana. The mouth feel is a little over-carbonated, but still creamy in my opinion. As for the taste, a very nice banana, with a wheaty backbone - desirable from any blonde. But speaking critically, nothing over-special that made me jump out of my seat. I would buy another pint, but not eagerly.
