With a discreet aroma of honey and wildflowers, this sweet and refreshing blonde ale has a bubbly personality and dry finish.
It pays tribute to the Filles du Roy, the courageous women who came to populate New France and help build the Quebec of today.

Saison? I’m not sure i agree with that. There was no funk, or barnyard aromas or flavors. This had the signature Unibroue yeasty esters, and light citric fruitiness. There was a little spiciness, but not much. To me this was just some blanche de chambly with a touch more spice, and quite a bit more carbonation.

Very modest head, yellowish body with some fog. Funky sour grapes aroma, rotting lemon, coriander, odd overall. Heavy coriander flavour with a bit of wheaty dough. Crisp finish. Bready on the back end. Not too bad though a bit of an acquired taste.

F: big, white, not good retention. C: orange to gold, hazy. A: malt, orange peels, citrus, earthy, hint of spicy. T: malt, coriander, orange peels, creamy mouthfeel, yeasty, candy, fruity esters, peach, medium body, normal carbonation, more ale than saison style, but sure there are Belgian features, quite good, 341ml bottle from Eat Brussels 2016 festival.

A murky, light yellow beer, a head is big and white. Strongly aromatic nose and quite unique. Strong flowerness, coriander, some honey and spices. Taste has flowers, spicyness of ginger and coriander. Medium bodied, strong carbonation, refreshning. Belgian ale with the strong flowers and spices. Decent.

Pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma has notes of malt, yeast and dried fruits. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter with a long fruity and yeasty finish. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle. An almost clear one, golden-orange in color, topped by a small, white head. The aroma is on the fruity side, almost like canned tropical fruits, with some sugary notes. It’s medium bodied and semi-dry, with a smooth carbonation. Fruity, sugary flavor with a decent bitterness and a grassy, piney hop touch. Lasting fruity-sugary finish. Sure drinkable and all that, but rather boring, and far from the best from this brewery. 150612
