COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A blond summer ale whose name refers to the use of elderflowers in its production - the flowers are always planted in little terracotta pots. Although, it could also refer to our infamous concert hall in Bruges: the terracotta roof tiles are always falling off that... The beer has a fruity blossomy fragrance and a slightly acidic cider-like component to the taste.

Bottle, bought @ Tønden, Haslev.
Pours hazy yellow with nearly no head - only a small island on the liquid - disappearing quickly. Aroma is lightly fruity citric, lots of elderflowers and oranges. Rather high carbonation, rather fresh feel. Flavour is lightly tart, quite flowery, citric gueuze-ness as well. Weird and fresh.

MiP (11255) - Sønderborg, DENMARK - APR 13, 2008
Bottle, ZBF08. Refreshing aroma, slightly acidic. Clear golden colour, small white head. The flavour is also acidic, like a mix of geuze and blond ale. Some yeast. Not bad.

Bottella. Cloudy deep yellow. Short very fast disapearing white head. Strong lemon bit sour herb aroma with yeast. Good fizzy mouthfeel. The flavour is a bit sour with yeast, lemon, malt and some fruits and bit of herb. Refreshing summer beer.....

ZBF 2008 on the Saturday Blond pour with some haze. Nice soft maltiness, but also a bit citrus maybe some grapefruit? Fine but nothing special.
