3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Secret Santa 09/10. Bigtime thanks! Nose has that great trappist yeast character with very subtle grains. Color is a nice gold yellow. Flavor was either too subtle for me or maybe the yeast died: shallow, rindy grain, no yeast character to taste, almost a soapiness. Surprisingly bland and papery. Glad I had it - suspect this was a bad bottle.

Blond with a white head and lasting foam. Lots of yeast character with generous spice and herbal hops in the aroma. se sweetness and green hop matter. Pils malt, a little sweet some herbal hops and light-med bitterness. Quite bready. Nice blond ale with nice malt expression and hops.

Aroma of wheat, yeast, sugar and subtle alocohol. Big fluffy 2 finger head, tight compact bubbles. Cloudy, orange-yellow color, speckled with sediment, which I chose to pour. Taste matches aroma, with additional notes of banana and vanilla. Smooth mouth feel. Overall, an excellent blond.

330 ml bottle. Whiteish yellow golden colour. Slight haze. Lots of carbonation. Very tall white fine-laced head that clings to the glass. Sort of citrusy aroma with a crisp yeasty nose. Very delicate. Crisp carbonated pilsener malt flavours. Slightly grainy. Light-bodied. Hops are quite dry and leaves a papery slightly bitter sensation.
