Maredsous 6 Blond

Brewed by Brouwerij Moortgat
Style: Belgian Ale
Breendonk-Puurs, Belgium

A Mes rate: Draught at Lowlander. Amazed this has not been done before. One of those that has slipped under the radar. Still have quite a soft spot for this as it was one of the beers that turned me on to a more discerning approach to my drinking. Nothing particularly stunning about it however. Amber gold colour with a slight haze. Caramel and some nice grassy hops with a sweet peachy note. Dry and clean in the mouth. Very drinkable if a little dull.

Bottle at Københavnske øldage 07. Golden / orange colour with a white head. Aroma is sweet, fruit, coriander. Flavour is sweet, fruit, coriander, spices,apple. Nice beer.

Clear golden colour, white head. Aroma: fresh, coriander. Flavours: sour apples and some spices. Bitterness balanced well.

Bottle at Københavnske Øldage. Hazy, orange beer with an off-white head. Weak but balanced nose, sweet and fruity. Aroma is much the same, but spiced as well. Medium to full body, a bit dry. Some hops in the finish. Delicious, refreshing when cold, but maybe a bit boring. Definately not bad though. (070512)

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden orange with lots of yeast in the liquid. Head is great, wavy and creamy. Sweet aroma with malty hay, barn and a whiff of oranges. Flavour is lightly sour with a clear oranges tone to it. It really gets into my cheek at the end.

Bottle: poured a hazy orange with a creamy white color head. Spicy almost mint and floral aroma. The taste was metallic sweet malt with a hoppy floral finish.

Huge off-white head that leaves nice lacing and islands of foam. The color is light amber. The aroma is light with notes of coriander and pineapple. These light notes are present in the flavour too, and it’s not as sweet as the typical blonde, it has a bit more fruit, apple is rather dominant and I also find honey melon, citrus, coriander and light fruits like pineapple. The finish is nice and long with a modest bitterness, but a nice citrus acidity. It’s shouldn’t be too warm, then it losses magic - so drink it on the cold side - between 12 - 15 centigrades.

bottle. Nice Blond ale with a clear golden color, nice white head, sweet aroma and flavor some balance bitter and sweet. very nice beer.. Cerveja dourada com boa espuma e um aroma doce. Sabor meio termo entre o doce e o amargo, o mesmo para o sabor que fica na boca.
