Voici une blonde dorée développant une belle mousse compacte et tenace. Son dégagement gazeux est important. Au nez, on ressent l’orge et la levure ainsi qu’une touche agréable de malt. Elle est un peu piquante en bouche, offre un léger goût de torréfaction et révèle la présence de houblon. Elle est caractérisée par une amertume équilibrée et prolongée en fin de bouche ainsi que par des notes fruitées complexes. Rendant hommage à sa manière à l’enfant du pays, le Dinantais Adolphe Sax, elle se distingue aussi par le design de l’étiquette, représentant un escargot.

330mL bottle, pours golden blond with a towering white head. Aroma of yeast, dough and citrus. Flavour of yeast, sour malt, dough, citrus and spices. Wasn't a huge fan of this.

cloudy yellow, smooth creamy offwhite lacing head. nice faint sugar sweet, delicately flowery hoppy aroma, faint citrussy notes. flavor is dry, faint bitter, hoppy flowery sweet, malty sweet. yellow fruits. flavor hits an almost perfect balance between bitter, yellow fruits and citrussy notes. Only flaw is that the combined expression is slightly artificial, a bit like candy. Overall a very nice beer, really enjoyed the fine citrussy note and the way the bitterness is not just bitter but slightly flowery.

Delicious and juicy, but weak aroma of apricot, marshmallow, with a light grassiness. Cloudy orange, thick yellow head, good lacing. Creamy mouthfeel. Fruity and dry flavor of apricots. Nice start but goes straight down from there.

Draft at Birreria Paradiso. Filtered looking golden-yellow. Big, foamy head. Creamy and rich, butnot as thick and overwhelming as others in the style. Somewhat doughy. Sessionable, very mellow, but not lacking depth. Sweet and sugary finish, perfect balance. Belgian Cream Ale? Excellent for what it is.

Location: 11.2 oz bottle from State Line, 8/24/09

Aroma: Yeasty (sour yeast), lemon, spice, fruity, pear
Appearance: Clear golden color, lots of fizz, big foamy white head that fizzes away pretty quickly
Flavor: Sweet (and a touch of spice) upfront with a touch of sourness, and a lingering sweet finish, quite sweet
Palate: Long lasting, fizzy, light-medium body
Overall Impression: This is a pretty nice beer, very sweet with just a bit of sour yeast and spice. An enjoyable beer, not highly complex, but pretty good.

[33cl bottle, 7.5% abv] Hazy, golden colour with a big and blond foamy white head. Sweet and a bit candy-like malty aroma with notes of citrus, lime, accompanied by a flowery and delicately spicy touch. Sweet flavour, full bodied with a mellow mouthfeel. Solid pale malty taste with a cornucopia of ripe citrus-fruits, sweet and faint bitter fruity finish with fine hoppy spicy notes at the very end. A bit on the sweet side but still a very pleasant brew [09.I.09].
