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.

This brown 250ml bottle was 3 months out of date when reviewed: in Feb 2009. Poured into a ’Forbidden Fruit’ chalice. Cloudy and dirty lemon/grapefruit in colour with a very impressive white head, it looked great to be honest. The aroma was obviously apples mostly, some cerels in the smell too, plus something very sweet. This isn’t an apple beer that smells like a cider, far too sweet. The sweet apple aroma carries on into the tatse, a bit too sweet for me, but I can see females and those with a sweeter tooth than me enjoying this beer. 30% Apple juice according to the label, I think it is just added to the breweries regular wheat beer. I have certainly had worse fruit beers from Belgium and I wasn’t expecting much from this. I was pleasantly suprised.

750 ml corked and caged bottle. Pours hazy pale yellow with a giant white fluffy head. It takes its sweet time receding, but once it does it leaves a blanket of foam and decorative lace. Aroma is apples, clove, citrus powder drink. Taste is sweet, tart and spicy; some umami, too. It reminds me a bit of a German Hefeweizen with apple juice added. Carbonation is average but the body is thin. This is really tasty.

Color looks like a whitebeer. Smells like beer, just lightly sweet but still beer. Taste is totally different though, very very sweet. Low carbs, you can just pour it down your throat.

Smells like Karmeliet gone bad, not a lot of apple in the smell. Smells a bit sour also. Taste is the exactly opposite, very sweet, weird mouthfeel. Not so much apples, more like a 25 ct multifruit juicy. Don’t like this, glad to share this bottle with Benzai.

On draft @ Sunset Grill in Allston, MA. Served in a flute glass. Hazy yellow with a green hue. Very Light, very refreshing with a pear and apple nose, same in the taste. A very nice palate cleaner after a few real heavy beers. I didn’t feel very heterosexual holding this glass and drinking this BUT… It was very tasty.
