Tap at Achelse Kluis, Belgium: Hazy blonde colored brew with an slightly sweet bitter taste, very slightly hints of citrus. Normally not so fond about Belgian blonde beers, but this one nailed it for me.

Fairly clear, but ever so slightly hazy blonde and golden coloured body with a nice thick, three to four centimetre tall just off-white head. Aroma of big yeast and bready notes with a lot of residual sugars along with some stone fruits and a good crisp citrus quality and a lot of floral complexity, perhaps from the hops, but the malt and especially the yeast stand out here. Medium-bodied; Rich malty, bready and especially yeastie notes come through everything here with a lot of floral, grassy and herbal elements along with a crisp hop bite that comes through everything and finishes off with a robust sweetness, mainly from the stone fruits, but some also derived from honey it seems. Aftertaste shows the good balance of malt and sugars with a light hoppiness, but bigger crispness from the grassy and herbal side of things, all finished nicely by the noticeable alcohol. Overall, a very nice, complex, robust and malty beer with a lot of sugars and yeast, but the clean malts and slightly crisp hops make this robust and complex, while being fairly easy-drinking! Great to sample of course, and while I probably had sampled this before, this was my first rating of the beer! I sampled this tall, 33 cL bottle purchased from Del Haize [grocery] in the centre of Bruxelles, Belgium on 18-January-2015 for only €1,45, a few days after my second daughter was born, but with my friend - Thanks Phil for the memories!

Tap @ brewery. Blonde, hazy. Citrus and rancid butter in the aroma. Watery mouthfeel. Firm hop character with cellar notes. Grassy. Hints of rancid butter in the flavor. Something must have gone wrong.
