Pas de doute, cette Gulden Draak est bien est une Belge et en possède les codes. Elle reste toutefois décevante dans sa proposition aromatique et je dois avouer que je ne suis au final pas très fan de celle-ci. En verre, rien à dire, un joli blond doré limpide avec une fine effervescence soutenue et une mousse blanche de 5 mm. Le nez est sur une alliance céréales, coriandre, pomme de terre et girofle particulier, sans emphase en tout cas. En bouche, l'alcool, tout belge, donne un bon caractère à la bière. Pas de changement malheureusement côté aromatique avec une proposition ennuyeuse. La corpulence et la longueur sont bonnes toutefois. Moyenne.

Bottle from Jumbo. Darker, orangeish golden pour with a thick white head. Nose is big banana esters, quite sweet, boozy, a hint of vanilla somehow? Flavor is alcohol sweetness, some esters in there too, pale malts, a light to medium bitterness, to make it more drinkable. Carbonation is medium. Delivers the promises I guess but fairly unremarkable at the same time

Donkergeel bier met schuim. Smaak is krachtig warm en bitterzoet met iets van sinaasappel, wat koriander en appel. Uitstekend bier.

clear orange to amber colour, large, dense and long lasting ecru head; aroma of fruity (peachy, apricot jam and maybe apple peel, as well), grainy, floral and some grape-raisins notes; taste has similar notes to the aroma with some coriander and slight citric notes; really good one
