Een authentiek bier, gebrouwen sinds de jaren ’30, evenwichtig qua smaak en kleur. Een subtiele combinatie tussen bitter en zoet, subtiel en complex, gebrouwen met de beste ingrediënten. Verfrissend als een blond bier.

Thx! 33 cl. bottle sampled @ Bierkaffee ’t Middelpunt in Zolder. Hazy golden with a white head. Nose is sweet fruity but like apple juice, applesauce, Turkish candy, syrup, white sugar, syrup, very sweet. Taste doesn’t add entirely up either, apple juice & commercial applesauce, some chemicals, huge white sugar, syrup, overly sweet BE yeast,… Body too much yeast, oddly oily. This one of those dull BE blonds that veers too much into unpleasant flavours probably in an attempt to cut corners & please everyone. It is manageable still & drinkable for certain.

Bouteille 33cl, BB 29/10/2015. Dorée, col blanc léger. Arôme est agréablement fleuri rappelant ce côté de floraison. Le tout me rappelle un côté de fleur de chardon restant léger et de plantes médicinales sur un fond de levure. Palais est ici trop pétillant,ce la enlève pas mal du caractère de la bière. Le tout reste bien fleuri rappelant la lavande, malté moyen pour un palais râpeux gâché par cette effervescence. Malt de style carapils, houblon noble restant sur une lignée très européenne.

5/II/2012 33cl bottle late 80s vintage @ vintage tasting Brugs Bierfestival - BB: n/a (2012-1224) Thanks to JimRittchart for the sample!
Note: from lost notes earlier this year, found again!
Clear dark orange beer, pretty big aery big bubbled off-white to beige head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: dry, cardboard, dusty, maybe a little spicy, definitely off. Taste: about the same as the smell. The beer has died over this time. If I ever come across a fresh one, I'll rerate it.

Bottle. Hazy gold with a large white head. Aroma of lemon, berries, white wine. Taste is sweet with caramel, berries and grapes, balancing herbal bitterness in a dry finish. A bit odd, but refreshing.

(bottle, 33cl) Hazy, pale golden colour with a medium-sized foamy white head. Discreet aroma of pale malt, a yeasty and restrained fruity touch. Moderately sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Pale malt-character with traces of honey and fruits; sweet and slightly bitter finish. No revelation. 05.VII.11
