Superb golden ale from the Maes brewery. Clear gold, strong complex flavours with a dry aftertaste. Not to heavy in body and quite lively. Should suit the British palate well. Best served in it's own glass. 8,5% alc. Serving temperature 16 •c

Judas was launched in 1986 and was originally brewed in Brasserie Union at Jumet, until production moved to Alken in 2007.

At Eetcafé Twilight, Ghent. Pours clear dark golden with a small, foamy, off-white head. The aroma contains esters, banana, some bubblegum, some sugars & iron, hops & spices, alcohol. It tastes medium fruit/sugary sweet and light hoppy/spicy bitter; the finish is slightly dry and spicy. Medium, almost full, body, oily/slick texture, soft carbonation (surprising). Overall sweet and alcoholic, nowhere near the better Belgian Strong Ales, but I could see myself having this again with a meal..

Bottle at home. Nice white foam. Yelow, golden color, very bright. Not much aroma. Taste is a little bit flat for this kind of alcohol percentage. Not very special.

Pure white frothy head stayed well on a light golden, still body. Yeasty fruit aroma with candied sweets & slight hints of citrus. Medium body on the palate, slightly thin on the aft. Feels smooth with minimal carbonation. Great tangy taste with sweet citrus, yeast, boiled sweets, cloves & slightly floral.
