Boudelo Grand Cru is a copper-blond beer with an aroma of caramel and spices. The beer tastes malty and spicy and you notice clear hints of apricot and nuts. You also taste a fresh and fruity tint. A sweeter and softer mouthfeel with a long aftertaste warms you up completely!

Bottle, 8%. Citric and bready aroma. Almost clear amber colour. Sparkling. Big stable off-white head. The flavour is caramelly and bready at first. Then comes a warming and peppery alcohol note. Some bitterness. Slightly sweet caramel finish.

Gushing to fast gone head over veiled foxy-orange beer. Sweetish, almonds nose, rosewater, very light toast/roast. A bit fruity, but also fake citrus. Coriander?!! (and why no mentioning of this on the label?) Coriandersoup, 'nuff said. Sticky feel, medium bodied. Another one in the worst tradition of Belgian coriandertea. Effin hell, what ails these people? Stefaan, Kristof, really??? was 6/3/2/3/8 > 2.4
Second try, draught at the brewpub Slowly disappearing cream-coloured head, leaving lace over hazy copperish amber beer. Bit aromatic, rosewater, aromatic-spicy. Balancing between sweetish and dry-herbal/spicy. Ends bitter. Coriander is possible but nowhere imposing any longer. Dry, serious alcoholheat. Pretty OK, if less than the lighter Boudelo's, but stellar compared to the bottled version I had previously.

Flesje thuis gedronken. Oranje-achtig tot amberkleurig bier. Aroma en smaak van sinaasappel en banaan. Weinig nasmaak.
