Following the Blond and Brown Bink, the brewery launched a third type of beer: the Blossom Bink, on the occasion of the 50th consacration of the blossoms in 2000! We brew this seasonal beer every year in the same period (spring-summer). The ingredients are: five types of malts, one type of Belgian hops, brewing water, yeast, honey from Sint-Truiden and pear syrup from Vrolingen. It has a fruity taste with a slightly sweet tone and a long fruity and soft bittery aftertaste.

Smell-weak to medium, Belgian yeast, hops. Foam- thin, Belgian yeast, weak hops, caramel, yeasty, weak acidic tones, hops. Head is large, white-yellow-orange color. Goes away fast though. Appearance- generic red bottle cap, somewhat simple label, but not too generic. From - snifter Price-2,49 euros Taste- yeasty, Belgian yeast, some hops, bit herbal, acidic, alcohol not hidden. Some caramel and sweetness in the mix. Has some great qualities of Belgians, but something is not too well balanced to make this shine. But not bad overall.

Flowery, very perfumed aroma with pear and honey. Sweetish taste, also with pear and honey. Hopbitter finish. The taste is much better as the very cloudy appearance

Difficile de se passionner pour cette Bloesem qui veut se démarquer par ajout de miel et de sirop de poire. Pas réellement un succès avec un équilibre très moyen et des arômes manquants de complexité et d'intérêt. Le visuel se porte sur un ambré limpide surmonté d'une mousse blanc-cassé très abondante au versement mais s'estompant rapidement pour rester stable à 3 mm. Le nez se porte sur la prune, la poire, une pointe de citron avec une amertume légèrement florale. Le miel ne se ressent que très peu. Pas vraiment emballant tout cela. L'attaque est légèrement acidulée, ce qui permet de contrebalancer la douceur, certaine, mais qui ne permet pas de fait une bonne stabilité aromatique. On y retrouve les arômes présents au nez complétés de légères épices. Toujours aussi peu emballant. La deuxième bouche est purement linéaire, bien que légèrement plus intense. L'alcool s'affirme en arrière-bouche faisant davantage que ses 7,1 % ce qui est dissonant avec les arômes fruités et floraux. Le final, d'une bonne longueur est brouillon. Pas terrible.

Bottle from Bacchus Cornelius, Brugge. Dark purple-brown with an extremely thin head. There's lots of alcohol amongst its Belgian malts in its aroma, but this disappears to an extent in taste. Some yeasts are involved, it has a light sweetness and a plum styled fruitiness.

Draught at Moeder Lambic Fontainas, shared by Beerhunter111, thanks!
Dark red-brown body, with a medium, creamy, beige head.
Aroma of brown sugar, sweet sticky red fruits, caramel, some cocoa, some bread.
Tastes pretty similar.
Medium, a bit oily mouthfeel, with a moderate carbonation.
Finishes sweet, sugary, fruity, a bit malty.
OK. Much too sweet for my liking, sticky and sugary. Stillnot bad, quite interesting.
Score: 6 / 4 / 6 / 3 / 12
