Moinette Biologique

Had at seattle international beer festival. Poured hazy bright gold with bubbly white film. Aroma is lemon banana mix. Flavor very doughy, lemon and banana. Very light and nice for summer.

tap at gingermans nyc. no notes yet again. Very drinkable, grassy and floral. Pleasantly earthy and herbal, nice tingling carbonation. Very good example of the style

75cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex, yet easy to drink, cloudy, good head, good brew

33 cl. Foret version. Foggy orange-brown with a large head that settles to a lasting inch of meringue. Aroma is musty, tart apple baked with a dab of brown sugar-caramel and a twist of lemon juice. Flavor is similar, but the finish dries well so that it’s seemingly not as sweet as the aroma would indicate. Starts with tart apple cider and a hint of caramel turning to earthy spice, tea leaf, and a finish of bitterish woody herb. Near-medium body is acidic-tingly and watery.

Pours a hazy pale gold with a one finger creamy white head. The nose is spicy, earhty, tart, lemongrass, citrusy. The flaovr is spicy, earthy, waxy, bitter hop presence. Very nice refreshing saison. Has a waxy hop bite that I was not expecting.

750 ml 2007 bottle. Pale amber, tan-gold beer with a thick creamy tan head. Aroma is awesome, bright citrusy lemony character over a soft leathery spiciness. Zesty and lightly earthy. Lots of bright corky goodness. Rich and cologney with lots of pear/apple esters. Very spicy and peppery with a lot of flinty dryness. Quite astringent, but despite that, I quite like it. A bit of swirling softens the carbonation and makes it a much more enjoyable brew. Quite a bit maltier and richer than I typically imagine a saison to be, but it’s pretty solid nonetheless.

750 ml bottle. An unclear dark golden beer with a rich and persistent white head. The aroma is very nice, hoppy and yeasty more than malty with notes of flowers, grass, lemon and spices. there is also a light sour note. The flavour has a medium sweetness, atouch of acidity and a good hoppiness in the finish. A mild spiciness with some banana notes. Medium body, average/lively carbonation, dry quite long finish with medium bitterness. Plesant beer, maybe maltier flavours than a normal Saison and complex enough to gain after every sip.

bought this as Dupont Foret. pours a cloudy caramel color. thick off white head. smells of yeast and overripe banana. taste has a sharp bite. spicier than most belgian ales. light fizziness with tart apple flavor. a big pricey due to the organic ingredents and the shipping cost. but pretty interesting.
