Bottle at home. Aroma is orange peel, sweetish citrus, malt, spicy yeast, coriander. Flavour is moderate sweet. Body is medium. Pretty ordinary Belgian Ale but I dig the orange peel.

Bottle, 6.2%. Faint earthy aroma. Cloudy golden colour. Good stable white head. The flavour is quite citric with a thin maltiness. Hint of year and paper and a fruity hop. Citric finish.

Blonde ale with orange peel by this brewery in between Amersfoort and Arnhem in the northern Netherlands – a brewery aiming at reaching a large audience apparently, present in many Belgian beer shops as well these days. Foamy, snow white, cobweb-lacing, rocky head on a clear ‘old golden’ beer with pale orangey tinge and visible sparkling, turning misty with sediment. Aroma quite off-putting, with an enormous amount of overcooked broccoli and other vegetables – the DMS scent I always hate, but amplified by whatever sulfuric element the used orange has brought in, old rubber, rotting grass, halfripe banana, old leftover dough, moldy cereals, honey, coriander seed, old dishwater and kitchen cloth – but hardly anything refreshing, which is what an orange-flavoured beer should at least try to achieve. Sweetish, fruity onset, sourish edge from the orange – very clearly so, but again more like a moldy orange and hardly refreshing; very fizzy carbonation, very minerally; slick cereally and bit doughy malt body, some coriander and then, of course, that wave of rotting leaves and overcooked vegetables, very extreme. Back in the mouth, a floral and bit spicy hop bitterness, accentuated by the bitterness of the orange peel, lingers in the end. I have nothing against the use of citrus peel in beer, but this is not an easy ingredient to master and in this case it is the most likely cause of a very unpleasant sulfuric effect which totally ruined the whole beer for me. I think I am going to pass for these Heidebrouwerij beers next time.

Donkergeel toto lichtbruin bier met weinig schuim. Smaak is licht bitter en licht zuur en kruidig met iets van hooi, gras en bloemen. Valt wat tegen.

Kruidig en granig in de geur, wat zurige sinaasappel in de smaak. Matig
