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.

Bottle. A clear one, golden in body and with a small, dense, off-white head. Fruity and citrusy aroma with some hoppyness, rather sugary. Pleasantly bitter flavor, with some alcohol notes. Citrus, fruityness and a solid dose of white sugar. Full-bodied and almost sticky. Sweet, fruity finish. A bit too sugary for my likings, but quite drinkable anyway. At least in small quantities. 111030

Saxo pours with huge head and a yellow body that does not inspire the imagination. A perfume of hops emanates from the head, smooth and relaxing, inviting even. Taste is a soft mix of watery hops and maybe some malt notes. But, it’s amazingly easy to drink for the high alcohol content. God Bless Belgium.

11.2 ounce bottle from Wines of Distinction in Abingdon, VA. Pours a hazy golden amber color with a large creamy white head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of bread, candi sugar, nutty notes and very faint citrus. The taste is tart, citrus, bread and a hoppy-finish. Moderate carbonation, medium bodied.
