Traditional blonde abbey beer. Thanks to the secondary fermentation in the bottle it has an alcohol content of 6.5%. The beer has a bright “Naples yellow” colour. The head is thick, creamy and long-lasting.The nose is discrete, vernal and floral with notes of vanilla and malt. Its refreshing finish is pleasantly hoppy. The mouthfeel is round, agreeable and well balanced. This balance makes the beer very drinkable, before giving way to the complexity of the hops’ bitterness.The flavour is very rich, refreshing and harmonious. It reveals hints of ripe pear with accents of papaya.The final impression is one of balance and a discrete and elegant development of the bitterness. This connoisseur's beer is to be savoured slowly so as to fully enjoy its rich flavour, delicate aromas and perfect balance. Dominus Blonde is characterised by its refinement and typical character. It is a lively and very digestible beer.

pivo otvoreno na dočeku nove godine na Kleku! Skladan je to blond ale od 6,5 % alkohola, s cvjetnim, voćnim i slatkastim aromama te suptilnom gorčinom. Idealan izbor za one koji traže ozbiljnije belgijsko pivo, bez preintenzivnih aroma, ali sa dozom kompleksnosti i tradicije.

Boca 0,75l - kupljeno u Eurospinu - malo jače karbonizirano, lijepa pjena s minimalnim lacingom na čaši. Fora spicy okus s malo voća, taman i suho i slatko, dovoljno gorčine. Ugodno iznenađenje iz Eurospina

Barva svetle zlatava, zakalena. Pena pekne husta a vcelku trvanliva. Vune kvasnicova, psenicna. Chut sladova, kvasnicova, ovocna, hutnejsi sucha. Telo lehci, ale vodovym bych to nenazval. Dojezd trochu dokysela. Takhle ma asi vypadat blondak. Vtipna lahev jak od sampana
