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.

Den Alkohol mag man wohl schmecken, aber er wird von allerlei feinen Blond-Aromen nach weihnachtlichen Gewürzen umrahmt. Einen gar "schnapsigen" Geschmack wie bei vielen besonders starken Quadrupel oder deutschen Doppelböcken gibt es gottseidenk gar nicht. Es wird vielleicht nicht mein Lieblingsbier, aber ein gutes belgisches Blonde ist es allemal.

Bright gold color clear, compact white head, bubbly, fading, fizzy, light persistence. Aroma is sugary/candy malts, typical esters light fruity and juicy, some lemon zest, decent grassy hops. Fluffy texture loaded of CO2. Finish clean, dry, aromatic. Well structured body balanced taste, alcohol comes up early weigh a solvent action, feels like 7+. Classic belgian ale.

Bottle. Somewhat hazy gold with a thick white head that lasts OK and laces well. Floral aroma with nectarines, dough, oranges. Sweet and yeasty/ fruity with a finish that dries out a bit and is moderately bitter and herbal. A bit like an attempt at an Orval knockoff with no Brett. Quite good, refreshing.
