We took our Blond and fermented it in the secondary with wild yeast (Brettanomyces Bruxellensis). The outcome is a bubbly, funky beer. A strong nose with tart notes of grass and fruits alongside toast bread, shapes the taste that is balanced by the hops bitterness. Dry and complex, this beer will achieve an incredible depth complexity with time.

Bottle from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Batch 11. Gusher alert. Aroma is yeasty and funky with fruity notes, brett funk, light pale malt, touch of apricot, light spicy/herbal. Flavour is lightly sweet and moderate bitter with a somewhat dry finish. Body is medium with lively carbonation. Nice one, bit Orval-ish.

Batch 2, draft. Not as much character as it should have. 3,7/5.
Batch 1, bottle. Hazy rich gold, white head with some lacing. The aroma is pale stone fruit tart freshness, some dried pale fruit stickiness, flowers and herbs, a barely perceived pale Belgian malț backbone. It doesn't have the honey note of the plain Blond, instead some subtle white wine mildly funky dryness. The taste is not really sour but is very dry - that leaves a bit of a white wine feeling, then you get a note of dried apricots, and finally a nice a nice smooth herbal bitternes in the finish. A perfectly polished extra dry top-notch Belgian blond. 4,0/5.
