COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
PALM Ale has long been one of Europe’s top-selling specialty beers. Made with English hops, French Barley, and Belgian yeast, PALM represents the best of European beer-making traditions. It’s the roasted Champagne Malt which gives PALM its amber color, but without being heavy. Also available bottle-conditioned as Palm Hergist.

Borostyán sárga színű ital amelyen egy nagyon vékony hab keletkezik a kiöntésnél és az is gyorsan eltűnik.Illata kissé szúró és olyan mint az ázott dohánylevélé.Íze malátás és zöld teás és enyhén füves és picit karamellás.Kissé vizes teste van minimális élénkséggel.Utóíze kesernyés és olyan mint ha nedves szalmát rágcsálnék,szerencsére gyorsan elillan.Lehet akármilyen híres és bármilyen sokat is adnak el belőle,szerintem nekem ez volt az utolsó üvegem belőle.

beerguy101 (4825) - Newark, California, USA - DEC 9, 2009
Sampled on 12/9/2009. This Belgian Ale pours a medium amber color from a 33cl bottle. Small to medium sized white foamy head, with decent retention and nice lacing. The aroma is caramel and sweet with some floral hops. A medium to light bodied Belgian Ale. The malts are caramel and sweet. The hops are floral and earthy. Lively carbonation. Reminds me a whole lot of a an American Amber Ale, but not quite as sweet. Light and refreshing. Very drinkable. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

Vaiz (1847) - Den Haag, NETHERLANDS - DEC 7, 2009
Pours a golden color with almost no head. Faint aroma is a bit leathery and has some fruity notes, but not very pleasant. Flavor is bitter and a bit sour, reminding me of cheap ale.

Pretty good belgium beer with a lot of hops and easily drinkable the flavor is a very roasty malt with some complex features not found in other beers. I was surprised to find this beer in the local grocery and it was a rather good choice

On tap, Chili Cookoff. In short, I did not like this beer. It had a strange vegetal-minerally nose, and a flavor that masked and twisted all hop or malt essence. Earthy, if that is a positive trait, but I could hardly get it down after having worked at a Belgian Beer bar with many of Belgium’s finer liquid goodies.
