3.4 Im Glas hellgoldgelb mit einer leicht glänzenden Trübe. Unaufhaltsam strömt massig feine Perlage nach oben. Die weiße mittelporige Schaumkrone macht einen überaus stabilen und sehr langlebigen Eindruck. In der Nase gute, leicht süßliche bis zuckerige Malzaromatik, die leicht ans röstige anklopft. Dazu eine ganz anständige Würze. Im Antrunk ziemlich aufschäumend, brotig-malzig und fein-hefig. Am Gaumen kommt der brotige, süßliche, fast röstige Malzcharakter wieder gut zur Geltung. Leichte Dörrobst- bis Rumobstaromatik kommt dabei ebenso hinzu. Die Hefe bringt dazu einen durchaus guten weichen Charakter mit, der ein ganz gutes Mundgefühl schafft. Die Süffigkeit gibt sich aufgrund des doch etwas aufschäumenden Verhaltens jedoch eher gehemmt. Im Abgang flacht die Sache ziemlich schnell ab, sodass von der doch recht deutlichen Aromatik bis auf leichte Hefenoten und einer eher alkoholischen Note nicht sehr viel übrig bleibt. Auch wenn dieses Bier nicht unbedingt schlecht ist, gibt es wesentlich bessere, bekömmlichere und vor allem herausragendere Biere dieser Brauart und in dieser Stärke.

3.6 甘い

3.1 Interessante Nase, gute Drinkability für die 8 Umdrehungen, aber insgesamt recht unauffällig. Somit gerade noch okay.

3.6 Robe dorée, à peine voilée, mousse très abondante, épaisse, carbo très abondante. Nez levure, note légère alcool, esters. Attaque : malt, un peu d'alcool, esters, notes fermentaires, une blonde forte classique, assez légère vu le degré, avec une rondeur pas trop lourde, des arômes assez subtils. Très agréable.

3.9 Beautiful white head, though disappears quickly. Light golden in color, carbonation is a bit dead. Lovely balanced, dry and fresh. Clear bitterness, medium-bodied. Typical blonde in many ways, resembling its big brother Duvel. A bit more on the hoppier side than other blondes, perhaps? Still very drinkable. Pair with any meat or pasta dish, or on its own.

3.5 Fles. Ooit eerder ook al eens gehad. Zachte variant van Duvel. Prima bier, droge nasmaak, vol van smaak.

3.9 Honingzoet sterk blond gistend biertje precies zoals ik ze graag proef 😃 Zoete fruitige bitter met een licht pitje op het eind. Maar vooral zacht en glijdt makkelijk weg. Moutig zoet geurend. Gele licht wazige kleur met volle zachte schuimkraag. Niks mis mee trippel euh bedoel blond biertje 😅 Maar goed met 8 procent had het net zo goed een trippel kunnen zijn. Waar ligt de scheidslijn?

3.7 I've been drinking this beer for a long time, so I'm just taking this here to keep it written

5.0 one of the many strong ales around in belgium, this one just never dissapoints.

3.4 Flaska från Belgoklubben. Klar, gyllengul kulör med smutsvit skumkrona. Doft och smak av jäst, örter, grönt äpple och ljus knäck. Torr och lite sträv munkänsla. En del alkoholtoner framträder i eftersmaken.

3.1 Bottle from Mattias, merci. It was one of those classic Belgian blondes that leaves you a bit underwhelmed. Somewhat sweet and boozy but not really giving much depth or wowness. Best drank before others.

3.3 Old rating from 2017 - 330ml bottle, pours yellow with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of orange, honey, grains, spice, bread & yeast. Moderate body. Sweet finish with the alcohol content well hidden

3.7 Rating #4900. Bottle at home. Clear golden body with a huge white head. Yeast, malt, fruity, spices, clean. Good.

2.9 Pours light cloudy gold with a big frothy white top. Aroma is yeast and light grains. Taste is clean, basic beer, some light yeast notes and a little earthy malt.

3.6 Bottle from Westhill Service Station. Quite surprised I haven't rated this before.... It pours clear blonde with a fluffy white head. The aroma is bitter - sweet, floury white bread, biscuit, cracker, hay, grass, floral and dull citrus. The taste is pretty crisp and dry upfront, then its floral, grassy, hay, doughy white bread, biscuit, some creaminess, citrus peel, estery fruits nip of spice and some alcohol kick with a firmly dry finish. Medium body and moderate to high, prickly carbonation. Its pretty straight-forward but enjoyable nonetheless.

3.7 Bottle at The Situation, served in a trappist glass. Hazy golden colour, medium head and retention, good lacing. Aroma of apples, citrics, banana, pear and some spice that I can't remember now. Medium body, silky texture, good carbonation. Sweet finish. Taste follows the aroma. More than decent.

3.6 Pours clear blonde with a huge white head. Nice nise on a little banana, green apple and malt. Medium creamy body with a perfect sweet/bitter balance. Very well crafted beer.

3.4 *rating overgezet 2016* Fles gedeeld door Inoven. Het is een goudgeel bier met een volle schuimkraag. Het aroma is moutig en fruitig. De smaak is fruitig en fris.

3.6 Tiene un cordón espumoso de buena duración. Cuerpo medio y carbonatación alta. Aroma maltoso y afrutado. Sabor ligeramente cítrico con notas picantes. De retrogusto dulce. La he conseguido a 0.50€: un regalo.
