Strong(ish) Belgian blonde, an 'edelbier' as the old OBP would have said, by this microbrewery in the German speaking part of Belgium; tasted from can during a stay there but also from tap at the brewery, and this rating concerns the latter. Medium sized, frothy, snow white, membrane-lacing head over a hazy golden orange blonde robe with apricot tinge. Aroma of apple peel, croissants, pineapple, raw white bread dough, cloves, coriander seed, calvados, grass, egg yolk, vague banana ester and a sweaty note in the background. Fruity onset, red apple, green pear and again only a hint of banana, lively carbonation with smooth, rounded pale malty middle - a bit bready and a bit honeyish, but altogether quite clean. A touch of biscuit passes by before a floral, in all relatively mild hop bitterness appears, sided by soft spicy notes and warmed by calvados-like alcohol, which should perhaps be a bit less obvious at this strength - but it does not become so strong as to bother me. A bit sweeter, 'rounder' and perhaps fruitier than Duvel, to which it clearly nods, and agreeable enough.

Sampled @ Zythos Beer Festival 2022. A hazy dark golden beer with a white head. Aroma of sweet strong malt, honey, some herbs. Taste of herbal pale malt, honey, straw.
