Aroma of sweet apples. Very fruity flavor (sweet apples and pear), just a bit grassy. Some hopbitterness. Drinkable, but unexciting beer.

bottle, vintage ( think 2002 ) Pours clear amberblonde, small white head. Smell is oxidized and metallic. Taste is bit bitter, some madeira, metallic oxidation. OK...

Classic Brunehaut blond since 1992, with hazy peach blonde colour and thick, creamy head; yeasty character, citrus peel touch, peach, dried apricots, a bit bready, dryish with a yeasty, somewhat phenolic (plastic!), thin and grassy hoppy bitterish finish. Did not like this too much.

330 ml bottle into tulip glass, bottled 5/2013. Pours hazy golden orange color with a 1-2 finger dense off white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Spotty soapy lacing clings around the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of lemon, orange zest, apricot, pear, apple, pepper, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, straw, grass, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, pale malt, and earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of lemon, orange zest, apricot, pear, apple, pepper, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, straw, grass, and herbal/yeast earthiness. Good amount of earthy yeast spiciness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, apricot, pear, apple, pepper, cracker, biscuit, light honey, straw, grass, and herbal/yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, pale malt, and earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/yeast balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium-high carbonation and medium bodied; with a very smooth, crisp, and lightly prickly/bready mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is well hidden with minimal warming present after the finish. Overall this is a very nice Belgian blonde ale. All around good complexity and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, pale malt, and earthy hop flavors; and very smooth and crisp to drink. A very enjoyable offering.
