bike tyre aroma. i wrote down that it had ambulance siren in the palate but i don’t know what i was getting at with that. unremarkable

Fruity, soft, orange-peach aroma with a hint of clove. Hazy, sunny golden color with a respectable amount of sedimentation, somewhat fine bubbles and a suitable head. Flavor has some measurable citric, sweet malt fruitiness, but right on the malt’s heels come the peppery hops and the spice blend, creating a rather unique mouthfeel and texture. Finish is largely dry and full of spice and yeast. Hmm. Perhaps this is inappropriate, but this beer is like ’Duvel meets Orval.’ I happen to really enjoy those beers, though, so it’s meant in a complimentary way.

fine taste of hops a little smoked and pretty alcoholic. Reminds me of all the other Belgian triples/blones eg. Bornem, Chimay etc.

yeah what the description says

UPDATED: APR 2, 2009 Banana esters and spicy hops coalesce within the cushy, bready pils malts...Fluffy effervescence increases drinkability, sending subtle citrusy ideas throughout...The Wallonian countryside keeps yielding these wonderfully quenching blond ales...

Slightly spicy tripel-esque malt flavor followed by a metallic aftertaste.

Blonde (duh) with a medium head. Slightly spicy yeasty flavor with a dry finish. Solid but unspectacular.

cloudy blonde , big head, ample lace. peppery nose with a citrus character. light hoppy taste, sweet yet spicy. a very pleasant blonde

Seems typical of the style, which is a good thing, of course.

Slightly fruity,spicy,alive with flavor,nice hop aroma and good malt balance.
