Trouble in paradise! A frivolous damsel enters the scene. It is a young lady that over a few months matured in oak wine barrels, which gave her a deep but soft-bitter tannin aftertaste. The taste is full and complex because the brewers induced a controlled souring during the ripening process. The Mam´zelle is by origin a blond beer. Ripening gave her a soft red glow. This is the reason why she is called ‘high-blond’. The alcohol percentage is 8.5 volume. Brewers maintain that she is ‘untameable’.

Very short lived fizzy head on a translucent honey amber liquid, no retention. Aromas are citrus, malt, vinegar, spice and a hint of MJ. Flavors are similar to nose with citrus standing out and a bit of sweet in back. Pretty good.

Bottle from the lcbo. Hazy orange pour with a large white head. Aroma is musty wet paper, metallic, sweet, musty cereals, not pleasant at all. Mouth feel is nice, carb is solid. Finish is more musty notes, minerals and metallic. Hints of fruit, wet cereals, very unpleasant.

Sampled at Max's Belgian Fest 2025. Clear garnet amber, no head light legs. Nose is huge, high acid, pomegranate vinegar, apples, sour barrel. Flavor is huge vitamin C, apple cider vinegar, malt. Sour as hell. Long, high acid.

Bottle from a local bottle shop. Pretty complex aroma of wood, grainy malt, grapes, wine, fleshy fruits, barnyard funk, citrus, mild stone fruits, bread. Flavour is tart and moderate to medium sour with a little sweetness. Body is medium. So much better and more original than the label "hoogblond" suggests, this funky wine Sour/Wild is a bit of a gem.

Аромат сразу кислый и как будто с дикими дрожжами, немного цитрусовых, хлеба и абрикоса. Цвет полу мутный, немного золотистый, пенка средняя. Вкус неплохой. Сразу дрожжи с ароматом хлева. Кислые как будто от гриба ноты. Хотя при этом много абрикосов и немного персика. При глотке нотки горячи и немного сухости, как будто ассоциации с белым вином. В целом неплохой кислый эль в классическом виде.
