Fleur de Houblon is a rich gold color with distinct floral hops in the aroma that follow through in the taste. Whole-cone Bravo hops are used to impart their earthy, fruity, and floral aromas and flavors. The body and flavor are clean and dry, with pleasing complexity and spicy notes from both primary and secondary fermentation with our unique Ommegang house yeast.

Bottled unto tulip. Golden amber pour. Nice white head. Very floral and yeasty funk. Interesting but I prefer the iron throne blonde.

Bottle. Hazy golden color. Medium head. Sme lace. Aroma is a slightly sweet, floral smell. Taste is a light floral taste with underpinnings of hay and a touch of funk.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up in the US. Pours totally clear honey gold with a frothy, white head that settles into a cream. Holds moderate sweetness, a little alcohol, dried biscuits and grains, lemon peel, subtle yeast expression. Medium bodied with active carbonation. Nicely balanced finish, with more notes of citrus peel, biscuits, wheat, nips of grass and yeast. Highly drinkable.

Draft at Smithfield Hall. Unclear yellowish-gold. Frothy white head and lots of lacing. Belgian yeast and clove, spice, and citrus fruit. Melon and mango notes. Fairly sweet, yeasty, and spicy taste. Clean, mid-plus bodied mouthfeel. Nice drinkablity overall. Good beer.

12 ounce bottle. Pours a hazy honey gold color. Large rocky white head with clinging lace. Floral fresh hop aroma. Yeasty notes as well. Bready, sweet citrus malt flavor upfront. A touch of bitter lemon peel in middle. Dryish, spicy hop notes in finish. Well balanced and refreshing.

Bottle from a Lazy Dog Slightly hazy deep yellow color with a huge bubbly rocky white head that persists. Spicy earthy peppery nose with a bit of sweet bready malt beneath it. Pomme fruity with some earthy rustic lightly funky flavors and a bit of spicy hop flavor. Pretty tasty.
