The Apple version of the Blanche de Namur. Very soft, with a base of fresh apple juice. It will be beautiful and even more refreshing in a cocktail or a granita.

Barwa jasnozłota, zmętnione, piana biała, średnio obfita, średnio trwała.
W aromacie kolendra, cytrus, jabłko.
W smaku lekko kwaskowe, półsłodkie, akcenty cytrusowe, owocowe. Kontra chmielowa znikoma.
Goryczka niska, wysycenie optymalne, ciała odrobinę za dużo, przez co delikatnie cierpi pijalność.
Trochę za mało orzeźwiające. Sam dodatek jabłka ok, ale balans do poprawy.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is apple juice with wheat. Sweet flavour with low bitterness, light body. Refreshing for what it is.

RB BE #800: 25 cL bottle. Pours murky orange with a bubblye white head. Spiced and yeasty apple aroma. Mouthfeel is flat. Flavour is mild spiced and with a light applenote to a strange wheat/spelt like base. Holds a distinct spice note. Ends medium to light acidic apple flavoured. Strange and nothing I could drink much of.
