Angelus Blonde is made from barley malt and 30% wheat, and reveals a citrus scent that has been known for over 40 years. It is characterized by its three fermentations. A main one, during cellaring and again on the bottle.

Bottle @ Pub L’Escale, Reims. Pours slightly hazy amber with small white head. Clear aroma of malt and fruit, with touches of honey, hops and spice. Sweetish onset of malt and fruit, giving way to bitter notes of hops and spicy touches. Estery finish with some bitter notes. Okay, rather well-balanced, but nothing really inspiring.

On tap at the GJBF in Osaka 2014. Angelus, 7%. A very clear light gold. Big yeasty fruity nose, very Belgian like with a healthy dose of spices. The taste is earthy, white pepper, coriander, orange and fruity sweetness. Slick mouthfeel. Not bad.

750ml corked and caged green bottle. Hazy yellow-tan body. Lots of rising carbonation bubbles meet a soapy white head. A touch of sour wheat and smooth, subdued French malt. I love the doughy, sublime mouthfeel of an authentic Biere de Garde. Lemony wheat and noble hops up front give it just a faint twang, otherwise it is just straightforward malt smoothness. Almost has some cider tendencies. Very enjoyable beverage.

Die Sektflasche sieht super aus, beim Entfernen des goldenen Korkenpapieres fällt der doch für eine Sektflasche untypische etwas kleinere Korken auf, der obendrein noch aus Kunststoff besteht - egal, auch guter Wein hat heutzutage ja keinen echten Korken mehr! Mein Bier ist komplett klar - keine Schwebeteilchen auszumachen. Es riecht sehr fruchtig-süßlich und ist wunderschön feinperlig. Der Geschmack allerdings ist nicht wirklich überzeugend - ganz leicht herb mit einer leichten Süße. Die 7% schmeckt man überhaupt nicht, genauso wie die bei den Zutaten (und von Vortestern) angegebenen Kräuter - selbst wenn man sich vorstellt, dass welche drin sein sollen - nichts da!
Das ganze Bier ist wenig facettenreich und "unspektakulär". Mehr gibts dazu nicht zu sagen. Es ist mal ganz witzig zu trinken, aber die 3,99€ für die 0,75l Flasche ist es nicht annähernd wert!
Test vom 2.1.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 12,7,8,7,14,9 - 8,80

Slightly hazy yellow colour, white head. Aroma of yeast, hops, funk and citrus. Fresh sour aroma, lemon, citric acid. Funky finish, hops and citrus. Nice beer! Wondering if the funk was intended, but it works quite well regardless.
(From 75cL bottle @ joes’ place. Shared by Benzai, thanks!)

Bottle shared with Dutchdrebus, Joes, Martinus and Countbeer. Hazy yellow color, medium sized white head. Smell and taste malts, pretty sourish, a bit salty (or is it the cheese?), citrussy. Slightly dry finish, average body and carbonation. Meh.
