Bottle from Dranken Vandewoude and drunk at the campervan. No esters on aroma. so a clean aroma . some malt some spicy hops. it's a decent Belgian blond without being exceptional. decent balance and decent spicy hops on finish. ok.

Hobby brew from Wevelgem gone commercial several years ago, commercial batches brewed at Gulden Spoor. I’ve known about this beer’s existence for three years now – so thanks tderoeck for sharing a bottle and thus finally offering me a chance to taste it. Regularly shaped, mousy, egg-white head lacing in shreds over an initially clear, warm orange-tinged peach blonde beer, misty with sediment. Aroma of dry banana peel, old herb cheese or even fenugreek seed, bread crust, coriander, old potatoes, dried wormwood, unripe peach, hint of iron in the background. Restrainedly fruity onset, apple peel, dried peach and slight banana, subdued in sweetness, sharply carbonated with very minerally effect; smooth bread-crusty malt base, cereally with a very light peanutty touch, leading to a spicy, even very lightly astringent finish with grassy and floral hop bitter notes and lingering soft bready maltiness. Not too sweet – unlike many other Belgian blondes with mass-marketing ambitions – and technically correct, so in its (overexposed) class, this is far from the worst. Clear example of Gulden Spoor’s technical mastery of traditional Belgian ale styles.

Dumpy 33cl bottle: BB 24th Sep 2021. Drank in the afternoon sun at home on 7th Apr 2020. Really enjoyed this easy drinking Blonde. Slight haze to the golden/amber body, white crown on top. Malty and yeasty nose, taste followed along the same lines; some fruity hints too.
