Ename Blonde

Ename Blonde

This blonde abbey beer, which has been re-fermented in the bottle, is both a thirst-quencher and a special beer. Lovely fruit on the nose, citrus, malt, fruit and hops will excite your taste buds, giving way to a long, dry finish.

3.3 Bottle from beerwulf. Clear yellow appearance with big white head. Aroma is sweet, malt and spiced. Flavour is dry, crisp, bitter and hoppy.
2.7 (nez levuré-malté blond, bouche moussue, abbaye-belge-équilibrée, amero-douce/sucro-épicée, > kro, < leffe (goujat !))
2.5 Wat bitter, smaakt wat schuimig. Troebel blond. Iets voor warme zomerse dagen. Maar daar zijn betere alternatieven voor.
3.5 Belle robe blonde, mousse blanche abondante. Nez malt, fruits. Bouche citron, caramel. Classique.
3.1 too bitter for me

3.2 Goudgeel hazy biertje met een sneeuwwitte schuimkraag die snel verdwijnt. Prikkelt fijn in de mond. Zuur-zoetig met een licht bittere toets op het einde. Fruitig. Zomers. Citrus accenten. Weinig uitgesproken en nogal vlak van smaak. Niet slecht, maar ook geen uitschieter.
3.5 Goudblond bier met voldoende koolzuur. Geur licht citrus, hooi, zurig. Smaak citrus, mout, zuurtje, bloesem. Medium mondgevoel. Nasmaak citrus, mout, bitter. Allemaal niet overdreven. Prima te drinken
2.2 Helaas zijn de meeste Ename biertjes wat flauw en smakeloos. Een blondje onwaardig, maar mijn mening.
3.8 Fles 33cl thuis. Typische blond. Lekker. 4-2012).-------------------------.
3.7 Recommended by a friend from Ghent whilst visiting. Nose: straw, banana, slight wheat and spice. Taste: slightly sharp, almost wooden, surprisingly hoppy and delightfully so as it unfolds in the aftertaste. 330ml bottle from Hop Duvel, enjoyed at home.
3.3 Clear golden beer with white head. Aroma is nice and rich citrus, fruity, hops and malty. Taste is yeast, sweet and modest bitter. Medium body. Overall nice and enjoyable belgian ale.
3.6 330mL bottle 6.6% BB 01/05/2019 Looks the part - hazy straw body, big persistent creamy white head. Very typical Belgian yeast-derived aroma - unripe apricots, clove, pepper, citrus leaf, doughy sort of malt in there too - rather pleasant. Texture is good - slightly sweet at first, that lively creamy carbonation kicking in provides balance & a long finish. Palate reveals sort of light toasty, bready, slightly vanilla-like malt character lending a nice sweetness to drying peppery, woody spice notes and hints of pears & apples & apricots, a touch of citrus, with a mild bitterness & minerally note to end up. Quite subtle overall - balance spot on, a very easy going beer for it's strength!
3.4 Blond one coloured yellow / orange. A bit unclear, big white lasting head. Easy drinkable. Touches of lemmon, tropical fruit, convenient bitters.
3.4 Uit een flesje thuis. Gouden, beetje troebele kleur, aardig schuim. Een lekker blond biertje, maar mist de kracht van een aantal andere blond biertjes. Overigens geeft het flesje aan dat het 6,66% is.
3.1 Keg at Den Engel, Leek. A clear pale golden colour with thin white head. Aroma of lemon, cucumber, yeast, slight banana, a little corn and subtle spice. Taste of yeast, lemon, some herbs, spice, slight pear, a little corn and subtle metal. Medium bodied and moderate carbonation. A dryish, slightly metallic, yeasty bitterness in the finish. A typical Belgian blonde with the yeast been the star of the show. However it's a bit corny and subtley metallic finish.
3.2 Good Blonde, typical Belgian Ale. Rich in flavor, yet ranking mid-range among its peers. A good beer, though, in general.
3.7 Tap. Clear golden pour. Small long living head. The aroma is slid malts, spicy yeast and pear esters. Medium body. Medium sweet taste. Nice yeastiness. Tasty.
3.3 BBD no. 2017. Big, foamy head, very persistent. Aroma quite pleasant fruity-banana esters and maybe some yeast, otherwise rather plain but good for a blond ale. Taste the same, yeast maybe more distinct. Prickly carbo. It’s a belgian blond ale so you know what to expect and this one is better than average IMHO. Taste is not overwhelming but it’s clean ( no off-tastes present ) and it’s got some body.
3.0 Hazy yellow to golden color with medium sized white head and fast retention. Sweet sugary aroma, malt, some traces of corn in the beginning. Candy sweet taste. Medium body, lively carbonation.
2.5 0,33l fles bij ralf gedeeld, heel zoete moutige blonde, met in de afdronk een onaangename bijsmaak, gekookte wortel... mwah
3.0 Blond abdijbier, geschikt voor consument die binnen de grenzen van het algemeen gekende wenst te blijven. Zal de echte bierliefhebber niet zwaar overtuigen.
3.1 Banana, coriander, pepper in aroma and taste with some slight citrus notes in the end
3.3 Pours gold with a large head. Nose shows banana, pear, spicy hops, herbal hops and doughy notes. Flavours include more herbal and spicy hops, banana, bready malt and cardboard. Carbonation is much too high.
2.8 Bottle, 330 ml, courtesy of JFK10000. Shared with him and Max. Clear golden, large white head. Good lacing. Not particulary nice aroma. Sweet, yeasty, perfumish, soft. Light to medium bodied.
3.4 Bouteille 33. Bière blond clair avec mousse blanche relativement persistante. Nez floral, fruité, houblonné et malté. Bouche correcte avec épices, fruits citron, un peu d’amertume. Pas mauvaise, sans plus !
3.8 Robe blonde, mousse abondante et crémeuse. Nez élégant sur des notes houblonnées et fruitées, Bouche à l’attaque fraîche et fruitée, une belle amertume, une fine bulle et une finale équilibrée. Une belle blonde bien équilibrée.
3.5 Goudgeel, helder, witte foamy schuimkraag, veel koolzuur. Aroma: Citrus, koriander, Belgische gist, banaan, bubblegum, licht moutig en fruitig. Smaak: Licht metalig, licht moutig, koriander, peperig en kruidig, banaan, Belgische gist. Mooi fruitige tonen en een lichte bitter. Lichte tot medium body, voldoende koolzuur, afdronk is droog en spicy.

2.9 Pours a cloudy yellow golden, topped with a large foamy white head, that imemdiately disappears. Mild yeasty nose, some dust and a tad fruity. Sweet malty start, a bit yeasty not just hardly, some mild bitterness in the finish. Light body, more on the gentle Belgian side.
