Moinette Biologique
Bottle: Unfiltered
An organic ale that is called Forêt in the U.S.A.
The Moinette Biologique is a top fermentation blond beer with refermentation in the bottle. It was created in 1990 and is, together with the “Saison Dupont Biologique”, one of the first two organic beers. The Moinette Biologique has the combination of malt aromas, fruitiness and fine hops. It is very thirst-quenchening and strikes a fine balance between mellowness, fruitiness and bitterness. The long refermentation in the bottle ends up in a very complex beer. The production is being controlled by Certisys and has the label Biogarantie®.
Ingredients: water, organic barley malt, organic cane sugar, organic hops, yeast.

Aroma; floral hops, fermented fruit, tart malts, farm, basement, soil, floral herbs, fruit juices, yeast. Look; good dense stable fawn head on hazy golden orange body. Taste; fermented fruit, floral hops, tart malts, farm, attic, soil, floral herbs, caramel, honey, fruit juices, aromatic yeast, pomerance, and leading to a balanced floral fruity finish. Feel; fruity body and okay co². Overall; juicy saison. [green bottle 33cl, 3.50€uro, T@home by PivotekaH7] .
Bottle at home. Opaque golden pour with a white head. Nose is phenolic, showing citrus zest, light malty notes, and herbal touches. Taste is slightly sweet, malty, grainy, highly phenolic and spicy with a touch of apples and a barely bitter finish. The taste is rather clean and straightforward all along. Light to medium bodied with soft to average carbonation. Been enjoying these classic saisons lately and this is no exception either.
Dorata, limpida, con abbondante schiuma bianca dalla lunga tenuta. Al naso fieno, miele, camomilla, panificato. Al palato pane, miele, camomilla e finale erbaceo. Carbonazione purtroppo non esaltante e secchezza non proprio ottimale.
Bottle. Slightly hazy yellow orange in color, effervescent white foamy head... Aroma of Belgian malts, sourdough, biscuits, fruity esters, spices, yeast... Crisp mouthfeel, fruity notes initially, apple cider, grains, earth, fresh baguettes, spicy yeast on finish... Solid
2016 vintage. Pours hazy straw yellow with rather large white head. Aroma is citrus, white flowers, honey, funk, spices. Medium+ bitter, very nice acidity and bit sour. Very good mouthfeel, soft and rich carbonation. Fresh. Leaves a nice long, bitter aftertaste. Excellent.
Super dry and farmhouse-like. But quite clean and crisp and light bodied. Quintessential for the style. Just a touch ashy in the finish. Beerwulf online
Good light beer with taste. A bit to dry.
Le bio est peut-être bon pour la planète mais ne bonifie en rien la Moinette. D'ailleurs il n'y a pas que ingrédients qui ont été modifiés pour du bio puisque celle-ci fait 7,5% pour 8,5% pour la Moinette classique. L'acidité est également plus présente ce qui donne à cette Moinette biologique des airs de saison marqués. Le visuel est digne de la brasserie avec un blond doré limpide et une mousse blanche nappant la surface. L'effervescence est marquée et légèrement trop poussée. Au nez, pas de doute, il s'agit bien d'une Dupont. La levure est bien présente et ce sont arômes de banane, agrumes, céréales et de fines épices. On y ressent déjà l'acidité, notamment au travers d'arômes citronnés. Cette acidité perturbe de façon conséquente l'attaque mais avec des arômes qui restent appréciables, reprenant ceux présents au nez. La deuxième bouche se stabilise mais comparativement à l'originale, perd en présence notamment à cause d'un alcool insuffisant. Arrière bouche et final sont davantage sur la levure, corrects, sans plus. Le bio se fait battre à plate couture.
Un peu fumée, mais très douce
Flesje meegebracht van vakantie en gedeeld met Tomhendriksen. Goudgeel troebel bier met matig schuim. Aroma van hout, hop en appel. Smaak is fruitig (apeldoorn, peer) en hop. Nasmaak is iets bitter.
Fles gedeelt door Inoven, het is een geel tot lichtoranje bier met een dun wit schuim. Het heeft een moutige wat bloemige geur. De smaak is moutig, bloemig, kruidig en licht zurig.
Odore acido orribile,ma birra sorprendentemente buona,fondo amaro,scartare
Hazy gold to orange. Medium head with low retention to thin head, then high retention. Aroma intensity 4.25/5. In the nose, flowers, leather, tropical fruit, herbs, notes of honey and ashes. Light to medium sweet, light sour and bitter. Light body
Really nice saison. 2017 vintage. Great lasting head. Super creamy mouthfeel. Fruity. A re buy. A really tasty beer.
Very floral with lots of rosewater. A forest for sure. Light and sweet, but not overly saccharine.
Apparence : Dorée, assez foncée, semi trouble, bon col blanc aéré, rétention moyenne, carbonatation assez prononcée.
Nez : Malt, grains, céréales en avant-plan, levure épicée en soutien, touche fruitée.
Goût : Levure épicée dominante, malt en soutien (opposé du nez), sucré, mais faiblement. Le malt et les fruits (banane, poire peut-être) s’expriment mieux une fois que les bulles se sont calmées.
Sensation : Bien pétillante, corps moyen-mince, épicée, longueur moyenne-faible.
Bref : Bien belle représentation d’une Saison ‘’traditionnelle’’ (si ce qualificatif peut être appliqué au style) où le malt et la levure jouent de part et d’autre un rôle non négligeable, chacun à sa façon et à son temps (plus levurée au début, plus fruitée et maltée ensuite). Bien agréable!

Hopt. Con un toque lambico.
(Bottle) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with lasting frothy white head. Fruity, herbal nose with notes of peaches, mandarin, mango, hay, flowers and a touch of banana. Fruity, floral taste with peaches, mandarin, tropcial fruit, some banana, coriander, hay, soft malt and a mild floral bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Really tasty and well balanced, Solid as always from Dupont. Very nice.
Barwa złota, lekko mętne. Piana obfita, trwała, solidnie oblepia szkło.
W aromacie przyjemne, wiejskie klimaty - owoce z sadu, siano, zboże.
W smaku przyprawy, słód, brzoskwinia.
Ciało średnie, wysycenie wysokie.
Bardzo dobry Saison.
Unclear, yellow-orange colored, medium+ off white head. Malty with some grainy notes, spicy yeast, light caramel, medium herbal hops bitterness, dryish finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, bit watery.
Pale and hazy with a frothy but fast dissipating head. Hoppy smell of straw with a certain fruitiness. Wheaty and metallic taste with a hint of spices. Rather strong carbonation which gives this beer body.
Pours dark golden, cloudy, with small but stable rocky head. Aroma is intensive banana, peach, bitter apple peel, some white bread, juniper. Light bitterness. Lively carbonation, light body, easy to drink. Fantastic!
biologische versie van de klassieker La Moinette, een saison tripel, lichte honing toets? Geslaagd met b(r)io
This is a backlog rating from pre 2009 from a bottle shared by Tmoney99, from notes. When I had this beer it was average to below average for the style and not something I wanted to have again or I just didn't get back to my notes because of my technology at the time. Words to describe this beer are grainy, barnyard funk, earthy, citrus.
33cl bottle. As Dupont Foret. A almost clear golden beer with a white head. Aroma of dry grainy malt, straw and yeast. Taste of dry grainy and herbal malt, spices and yeast.
Blurry golden blonde beer with white foam. Aroma: malt, kind of sweet, vanilla, somewhat fruity, grassy, some character of yeast. Taste: a bit malty, a bit fruity, vanilla. Finely balanced and velvety.
Une saison triple. Plutôt ronde et un peu mielleuse. La levure un peu épicée est assez présente à la belge mais reste douce.
Bottle. Pours hazy golden, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma is field grass, flowers, Belgian spice. Flavor is light sweet, light plus bitter. Medium body. Good.
Bottle from Fountainhall Wines. Looks incredible. Creamy peach gold with a bright white thin head. Nose has at peppery spice and lovely fresh stone fruit. Touch of toffee and a farmhouse funk. A hard toffee flavour with jelly sweets and floral freshness balance. Soft full body with plenty of Belgian fizzy carbonation. So refreshing for such a hefty beer with a super dry finish that keeps you coming back and back. Really enjoyed this.
