Bottle from a local supermarket. Aroma is softly yeasty with malt, lightly fruity. Moderate sweet with a light bitterness. Medium body. A pretty basic Blonde but pretty drinkable.

Fles van de locale Albert Heijn, gedeeld met Roelzie. Het is een bleekgeel bier met een volle witte schuimkraag welke snel weg ebt. Het heeft een aroma van gist en citrus. De smaak is zacht zoet, banaan en citrus achtig.

Belgian style blonde brewed by Eeuwige Jeugd for the 'Appie', the affectionate name Dutch people give to the Albert Heijn supermarkets. Longneck bottle from, indeed, an 'Appie'... Thick and foamy, egg-white, tightly cobweb-lacing, firm and stable, dense head on a crystal clear, warm yellow golden blonde beer with lively visible sparkling, misty and deeper gold with sediment. Aroma of ripe banana, honey-glazed pear, white bread dough, coriander, cooked turnips, freshly cut grass, green apple (acetaldehyde), meringue, iron, sourish sweat note. Fizzy, sweetish onset, banana ester mingled with cooked pear and green apple, dash of overripe cucumber, sharpish minerally carbonation, slick body; pale malt sweetish core, cereally and a bit white-bready with sharper grainy edges, accompanied by a 'whiny' sourish undertone, leading to a grassy hop bitterish finish with some soapy coriander thrown in for good measure. Floral hop aromas (sweetclover, chamomile) rise up retronasally and this gentle bitterness lasts long enough to remain moderately entertaining, though that sourish aspect as well as those sweet malty flavours pass through easily and unabatedly. Something metallic is present as well. Thinnish and boring, but admittedly well-balanced blonde - though not really one worth seeking out, considering the many other interesting beers gracing the 'Appie's' shelves these days.

33cl Fles van de Appie. Goudblonde kleur, witte kraag. Licht fruitig, wat kookvocht, licht hoppig, smaak is vlak en waterig, nietszeggend. Lichte body. Forgettable.

Bottle 33cl. from a local AH supermarket @home poured into a shaker. Yeasty nose. Slightly hazy pale golden colour, good frothy loose white head, mostly diminishing, light lacing. Aroma sweet malts, grain, yeast, some lemon, light honey. Mild taste above medium sweet and light bitter, malty, peach, grain, yeast. Medium body, creamy texture, soft carbonation, short mild sweetbitter aftertaste, light spicy notes, not so special but easy to drink, okay.
