19/I/20 - 75cl bottle as a gift, shared @ Julia’s 3rd birthday party, BB: X/2020 (2020-67)
Food pairing: sushi
Clear orange to amber beer, small dense creamy whit ehead, unstable, falls down quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: very malty, grains, cow fodder. MF: lively carbon, medium body. Taste: sweet and malty start, lots of grains, cow fodder, pretty bitter touch, bit metallic. Aftertaste: more grains, hay, cow fodder, pretty dry, hint of caramel, ripe banana, fruity finish.
Food pairing result: A bit too fruity to go well with the sushi, would’ve preferred something more bitter or more sourish, so either a clean crisp dry pilsner, or something like a dry Belgian witbier, maybe even a dry bitter American Pale Ale with mainly citrus notes (no tropical juice!).

“Belgian” style ale made by this classic industrial Italian macro brewery, 75 cl bottle from a Delhaize supermarket. Mousy, medium thick, snow white, quickly opening and thinning head over a cristal clear (very clearly filtered) metallic ‘old gold’ blonde robe with faint orangey tinge. Straightforward, simplistic and clearly ‘industrial’ nose: ripe banana, industrial honey, iron, white sugar, apple juice from a carton, soaking wet peanuts somewhere, cooked cloth, chewing gum, grass. Sweet onset, some banana and ripe apple notes with minerally carbonation adding a dull kind of sourishness, smooth cereally body with a caramelly edge, bit resinous but largely feeling ‘empty’, with a soft grassy hoppiness in the end, a bit peppery in bitterness but short-lived, while metallic and minerally accents linger and the unmistakable ‘cooked’ effect of pasteurization rises up retronasally. Industrial Belgian style blonde, pasteurized and filtered, too expensive for what it is – seems inspired by AB InBev’s Leffe Blonde and the like, though fortunately it is a tad more subtle in its industrial features and sweetness and in that sense a bit more enjoyable.

Bottle. Color: Clear amber, off-white head. Aroma: Malt, caramel, yeast, lightly hoppy. Taste: Malty, yeast and caramel and herbal notes. Medium body, average carbonation. Moderate to medium sweet, moderate bitter. Very easy drinkable beer for the mass. Overall ok but not that special.

Fine clear deep golden color with a really white head. Good lacing. Looks nice and inviting. Pleasant intensity in the aroma. Toffee, fruity and Belgian yeast. Fine carbonation level. Dangerously easy to drink. Toffee, fruity, mild banana and some yeast in the flavor.
