Proud, headstrong, full of character. Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor, gave all these attributes to the rebellious Ghent “stroppendragers” or noose-wearers. And what goes for the people of Ghent also goes for this strong blonde beer.

Bottle from slight hazy yellow - blonde thick, fluffy white head. The aroma is freshly baked bread, biscuit, doughy, brioche, grassy, minty, floury, some banana, melon, apple and pear drops. The taste is crispy, drying, snappy, bitter, grassy, herbal, minty, green banana, melon, pear, apple, nip of alcohol, peppery spice, cracker, grain and biscuit with a drying, herbal finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. Not bad.

Flaska från SB. Klar ljust gyllengul vätska med högt stabilt kritvitt skum. Jäst, örter och gräs i doften. Torr och krispig, fina belgojästiga fruktiga smaker som möter beskare örter och gräs. Frisk som en single och fyllig som en rejäl blond och med beska som xx bitter. Drickvänlig och riktigt bra. Ett fynd på SB.

Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were honey, grass, Belgian style yeast, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste had spiciness, floralness and bitterness. A nice brew with spicy yeast.
