Aged sample Good, receding off-white head over lively carbonated orange-ochre beer. Blossoms, orange blossom water, but also oxydation, old clothes, peardrops. Really oxydized flavour, oxydized malts, lightstruck too, I fear. Old clothes, biscuit. Very light acidity that might be pear-related. Medium bodied, even a bit chewy, creamy texture, well-carbonated. Sainte Hélène has died. Her remains tend to prove so. Txs to Stef!

26/X/24 - 33cl bottle from Dranken Geers (Oostakker), shared @ my parents’ place, BB: IV/2023, lot 2 (2024-1156)
Clear orange blond beer, small creamy irregular white head, unstable, dissipated quickly, non adhesive. Aroma: a little funky, spicy, yeasty, sourish impression. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: nice, gentle acidity, fruity, some malic acid, sweet touch, spicy, a little bitter. Aftertaste: more fruity notes, apples and pears, sourish touch, a bit lemony, dry, spicy finish, meh. Not great.
