Robe orange fort trouble avec beaucoup de dépôt, énorme mousse blanche qui déborde. Nez de cidre, pomme verte, ananas, pêche : fruité et acide. La bouche est également sur pêche et ananas avec un petit côté soupe de carotte et coriandre, l’acidité se confirme, la levure (sauvage et pas sauvage) est fort présente. La carbo est (trop) forte, la longueur bonne, le corps léger. Bière très étonnante, pas trop mon truc mais bien interessante...
A most explosive pop of the cork. Luckily no gushing. Amber body with lots of effervescence and a gymormous, cream colored head. Aromas of grassy to resinous hops along with honey and pale malts and grain in the background. A haze and fish food join in the appearance with the last pour. Sweet honey in the front, followed by a malty, resin laden mix. Spicy and hot as one approaches the finish. Alcohol starts to burn the back of the throat. Show a bit too much alcohol for a pseudo-strong blond. 4/11
375 ml bottle. Slightly unclear golden body with a huge, creamy white head. Mild spicy aroma with some malt and dry fruit. Flavor is quite sweet, fruity, light pale malt, spicy and low bitterness. Medium body and good in aftertaste. Quite straight forward beer really, but made with a very good balance and a sort of subtle complexity. Nice take on a rather dull style.
Vierte amarillo claro muy turbio con excesiva cabeza de espuma que dificulta su servicio, aromas a plátano, levadura belga, fruta y especias; en boca entrada suave y refrescante con ligero amargor, cuerpo ligero con excesivo carbónico, demasiada levadura en suspensión que hace que la cerveza no sea agradable y resulta difícil de beber.
bouteille de 33cl. Couleur blonde trouble, mousse énormissime, belle tenue. Des arômes très singuliers qui vacille entre le fruit et le légume, avec une pointe de coriandre, le tout avec une légère acidité. Carbonnation moyenne en bouche. Je ne dirais pas que j’ adore, mais elle reste intéressante. Trouvée à Vanuxeem - Ploegstaert.
Cervesa amb aroma i gust dolç a caramel i a galeta amb punts afruitats.
Cerveza con aroma y sabor dulce a caramelo y a galleta con toques frutados.
Mooi donkerblond bier met mooie witte schuimkraag. Zoet aroma met een klein zuurtje. Suiker, gist, beetje hop, bloemig. Caramel, kandijsuiker, hop, brood in de smaak. Goed in balans. Heerlijke warme afdronk. Lekker.
Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy light golden body with a small white head. Nose is banana, white sugar, red berries and hints of straw and grains. Taste is sulfur, stable funk, burnt plastic, band-aids, citrus, bitter herbs and hints of pale malts, earthy leaves, straw and alcohol. Medium body, high carbonation. Weird and sharp, seems a bit infected. Not too horrible, but certainly not a pleasant drinking experience either.

Draught at Beer Trappe. Orange color. Peach and tartness overall. Some fruit. Nice.
04.02.2016, 0,33l bottle sampled @ local tasting:
Nice creamy mediumlasting head, slightly hazy. Aroma is slightly sour-ish fruity, yeast, wheat, dried fruits, almonds, sour grass, weeds, wet hay, minerals. Taste is sour-ish harsh, weeds, sour grass, minerals, sour socks, almond essence, paper. Medium bitterness, sour-ish harsh mouthfeel. Crap (infected I guess...).
On tap at the Foundry. I was unclear as to whether this was a sour,saison, farmhouse, blond or strong ale. The website calls it a farmhouse with sugar added to raise the ABV. Malty aroma, slightly sour, then fruity taste that finishes with a bit of bitterness, or tartness. At the bar, this was designated a blond, a style with which I am unfamiliar, but if this is a good example, I don’t really care for.
Bottle. Nose is funky, hints of banana, grass, surprisingly piquant malt note, herbal hops. Taste has a pleasing malt bite leading to soft fruity esters, with peach, banana, strawberry hints of melon, then a dry herbal finish with hints of pepperiness and corriander. Further sips bring out swathes of peach, and a little caramel. A beautifully balanced Belgian Blond, which is exceptionally drinkable if a little to heavy on the peach
On bottle from Vinmonopolet Aker brygge, special release October. HAzy golden color, good foam. Medium aroma intensity;funky stable, light hoeny, good fruitiness. Medium body & complexity. Light sourness, some sweetness- balances well. Enojyable
Backlog rating. Keg at EoE, London. It pours a clean golden color with large off-white head. Aroma is fruity and estery, yeasty with notes of peaches, apricot jam and spices. taste has more stone fruits, spices, malts, caramel. Medium bodied with good carbonation. Overall, decent
Bottle 0.375l from Dranken Geers Gent Belgium.30.07.2015.Pour it hazy orange color with medium white head.Cork was explode watch yourself.Aroma of peach.Taste really smooth, juicy, bready, peach juice flavour too much maybe but ok decent.
6/19/2010 11:05:55 AM Bottle from Bierkoning. No problem with the cork, after the brune was a gusher. Murky orange body with no head - just a tiny white ring. Nose of brandy and oranges. Nice floral flavour with caramel, malts and toffee in evidence. Smooth. Gets quite sweet in the finish.
Bottle 33cl, a cloudy golden beer with good head.Nose is on Belgian yeast and vegetables. Aroma is astringent, strange green vegetables, I imagine some spices there, sorry to say that but a touch of vomit, peas, very carbonated, peppery, not my cup of tea at all.
KRS 280315. Golden-orange colour with an off-white head. Aroma is yeast, malt, vinous. Flavour is yeast, malt, vinous, grass, sugar, herbs. Full body. Nice beer.
Golden color witha white head with medium retention. Aroma has notes of belgian yeast with cookies hints. Flavor is slightly sweet, some yeast with orange and slightly citrus hints. High carbonation on palate with fruity notes.
Nessuna nota particolare. Birra senza particolari difetti ma abbastanza insignificante
(Bottle, Herman Belgian Bar, Berlin, 17 July 2015) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with peaches, tropical fruit and spicy hints of coriander. Malty, fruity taste with notes of peaches, tropical fruit, some white bread and a balanced spicy bitterness. A touch of alcohol in the finish. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well made blonde. Nice one.
[7120-20150304] Tap. Mild soapy floral orange yeast aroma. Slightly hazy, orange body with a long-lasting creamy off-white head. Floral sweet orange flower hops flavour has a sweet finish. Medium body. Good. (7/4/8/4/15) 3.8
(@ Birch & Barley, Washington, DC)
37.5cl bottle. Hazy golden colour with a nice white head. Yeast, pear, peach, apples and funky aroma. Average to high carbonation and medium body. Taste is bitter with some yeasty notes and a dry finish. Overall, a very good beer.
Pours a clearish golden color that gets a good thick hue once some crunchies get it it. Aroma is big, skunk, grass, mild hops, horse-blanket, hay, peach esters, spices. Taste is hay, grass, malt, horse-blanket, very little sweetness (in a good way), very mild bitter hops at the end. The mouth feel is very highly carbonated but still smooth. Overall a great blonde, stronger in flavor but still the mild notes a blonde should have, definitely worth grabbing a couple if you can.
Bottle, shared at RBSG. Brisk carbo, big white head on a hazy golden body. Very funky with bready undertones. Horseblanket, bread, a bit of skunky hops, low sweetness (which I prefer in any belgian ale). Nice enough.
