Pours deep gold into a tulip. White head quickly recedes to nothing. Cookie and souring fruit aromas. Sweet yeast upfront turning slightly bitter in the medium length finish.

This beer made me feel happy! I thinks this beer has a nice smooth flavor , not too hoppy not too malty. Refreshing and still not heavy!

Nr. 1228 Ein Blond mit wuerzigem Einschlag, Koriander? Fuer die Zutat Gruut habe ich nicht die entsprechende Uebersetzung gefunden, komisch. Hefig-malziger Antrunk, leicht fruchtiger Geschmack, auch leicht floral. Wird im Abgang zunehmend herber. So kriegt dieses Blond doch noch die Kurve zu einem ordentlichen Bier, ohne wirklich besonders gut zu sein.

Bottle:   Golden, large spritzy white head, sparce lacing.   Floral nose, a little bready, sweet grass, pale fruit skin.   Spritzy on the tongue, floral, a little heavy in its maltiness.   Burp, this one is airy.   Soft floral sweetness on the tongue, bready but not heavy.   Middle of the road type of Belgian Blonde.   Smidgen of pepperiness.   This is actually a breath of fresh air compared to the last two beers.   Standard Belgian Blonde, but certainly tasty on this hot day.

Gold pour. Aroma is yeasty spicy and sweet. Flavor is yeast and fruit with a surprising amount of hops. Thin.
