The Dikke Jan Blond is a pure blond beer, brewed only with lager malt and a flake of corn. The low alcohol percentage (5.5 °) was deliberately kept at this level. This is not a lager. Many think that given the low volume of alcohol, this is rather a lager but nothing is less true. The beer is first brewed with high fermentation but has a very strong fresh hoppy taste. A real thirst quencher. The pleasant bitterness together with a subtle citrus touch makes this beer a hit.

Lichtgeel bier met veel schuim. Smaak is bitter hoppig en licht kruidig met iets van dennen en wat hooi en gras. Mooi licht biertje.

Bottle at home. Clear golden color, small white head. Aroma is surprisingly floral with a hint of citrus. Quite weird actually. Flavor is similar, a bit weird, sort of artificial, sweetish, artificial citrusy, floral. Weird. Don't like it tbh.

The ordinary blonde in this series, bottle from Dranken De Moor. Regularly shaped, egg-white, moussy, membrane-lacing head over misty straw blonde – pale golden beer with vague greenish tinge. Aroma of ripe banana, sweet red apple, old coriander seed, white bread slices, bubblegum, some powder sugar, turnip juice. Sweetish banana ester in the onset but not over the top, some pear and pineapple, light bubblegummy effect, supple and lean mouthfeel with medium carbonation; ‘white bready’ malt body, light residual sugariness, dusty-spicy coriander seed accent but remaining subdued, floral camomile-like hoppiness adding a soft bitterishness while a mild bready yeast touch appears and malt and estery sweet aspects subtly linger. Very subtle even for a stereotypical Belgian blonde, adds absolutely nothing to the Belgian beer landscape but at least it is brewed completely correctly.

04/02/2018 - small glass shared with tderoeck, 77ships and rubin77 @BAB, Bruges. Clear blonde, small lacing. Nose is typical blonde but something unpleasant. Taste is sweet, malty, yeast. Way too sweet even for a blonde.
