Bottle from Colruyt. Golden colour, white foam. Medium carbonation. Fruity (citrus and banana), sweet with light bitter finish. Decent, nothing special.

The blond abbey ale in this series, with loose, off-white, irregular foam, only stable on the edges, golden blond colour with orangey hue, clear. Fruity and soft malty nose with spicy notes, orange peel, pepper, cognac, cheese, green apple, fresh thyme, mango, cloves, coriander. Fresh, crisp onset, malty but not too sweet, fairly sharp carbo, spicy middle (coriander, pepper, ginger?), finish spicy and hoppy, bitterish and dry with some warming alcohol. Cliché and totally mainstream but well balanced.

Slabe. Ja mam spore wymagania co do piw belgijskich, a zwlaszcza klasztornych. Wiec tu bylo bardzo mizernie. Mala piana, metnosci niewiele bylo w butelce, a po dolaniu specjalnie nie zmetnialo. Zlocistego koloru piwo z zapachem banana i moreli. W maku delikatne ale mimo stosunkowo niewielkiego alkoholu jak na belgie alkohol wyczuwalem dosc mocno. Troche mi to przeszkadzalo. Zbyt slodowe a zamalo rownowagi, zabraklo wytrawnosci, chociaz niewielkiej. Wersja Tripel byla sporo lepsza.

33 cl. bottle @ home. Procured from Willems. No clear BBF. Small gusher, the least you could ask from a macro owned brewery is for their beers to be flawless technically regardless of the flavour. Hazy citrus golden, vanishing creamy white head. Nose is esters, grains, touch alcohol, chemical, plastic, touch disinfecting liquid & sweet yoghurt. Taste is high carb. sweet white bread, yoghurt, sweet white sugar, sweet grains, slight corn, light grains, touch hay, cheap touch cheap honey. Light, high carb. Typical macro fare, nothing to fault but not much in the way of enjoyment etc.

bottle at home. clear golden slighlty orange, small white head. quite fizzy when opened. Aroma of sweet malts, bitter alc, metal, faint notes from belgian yeast. flavor is malts, hoppy bitterness, as in a german lager, fruity notes, in fact quite okay flavor wise, somewhat drier than the aroma. Quite bitter from both hops and alc.
