The “Spéciale Belge Ale” beer style is one of the better Belgian beers of the early 20th century. This smooth-drinking, amber-coloured, top-fermentation beer has a reasonable alcohol content. Special Palm malts are responsible for its honey-like mellowness, and Palm’s own selected yeasts give it a fruity yeast aroma. Fine aroma hops from Kent afford a subtle harmony.
Unique amber-coloured malts determine the basic flavour of Palm: mild caramel flavours with a honey-like mellowness. The malting process adheres to Palms specific instructions, which aim for the natural caramelisation that gives the beer its specific flavour.

Off white rocky head left a collar on an amber still body. Malt, berry & tea aroma. Medium bodied, average carbonation & a cloying back. Rather sweet tastes of tea, berry, spices, sweet citrus & confectionery. Sessionable in a 25cl bottle.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega kirjutan igale õllele selle sama teksti. Hindamiseks teen vaid ticki.
