Bottle shared at home thanks to Lars - Light golden pour with a white head. Sweet light fruity with some citrus lemony notes, some citrus peel, caramel, light to medium body, sweet malty finish.

The new name of Tumulus 800, a name the friendly guys of Kale Ridders had to change due to a legal dispute with that horrible Coca Cola Company; I apparently missed that one so here's my second chance. Steinie bottle, as always with sober but sapid label. Tightly paper-lacing, off-white, medium thick, dense and stable head over a misty pale orange blonde beer with peachy tinge and a fine suspension of translucent yeast dots throughout, more ochre-ish and more equally hazy with sediment. Aroma of banana bread, warm biscuit, apple cake, white dead-nettle flowers, apple peel, camomile, dusty old coriander seed, light iron, honey, moist white pepper, notes of dry straw, dried apricot, fried pear, white asparagus somewhere. Sweetish onset but not overly so, bubblegum- and banana-like isoamylacetate, notably sweet apple- and pear-like aspect, apricot, fizzy carbonation with minerally side effects but fitting for a standard Belgian blonde, smooth mouthfeel, tad powdery in the end; pleasant, rounded, slightly biscuity, bready malt middle with ongoing fruitiness and a dash of clove-like spicy phenols mixed with actual coriander spiciness, before finally delivering the 'amara': a spicy, bit dried grapefruit peel-tinged, rooty and floral hop bitterness which lasts for a long time and dries the finish in a powdery, elegant way, while the fruity esters manage to break through the barrier and add a yellow fruit sweetness to the tail. Dusty coriander seed spiciness and bready yeastiness get the last word. Cliché Belgian top-fermented blonde in terms of style, but with a very agreeable sweet 'biscuitiness' and a clearly above average hop bitterness to it (hence the name - and considering some of the earlier ratings, this feature was apparently even more outspoken in the beginning), making it a bit more up to date than many others in this - in Belgium - overexposed style. Simple, but balanced and pleasant to drink, technically well done and inviting to have another one: the essence of Belgian blonde ale, I suppose.
