Bière blonde à 8°, la force de la Bête Blonde réside dans sa différence et son originalité ! Notamment grâce au choix d’utiliser une levure de fermentation basse. C’est la conjugaison entre son degré d’alcool à 8° et son accessibilité en goût, particulièrement appréciée. Elle présente en bouche des notes de caramel et de pain d’épices.

250ml draught at Club 203, Quimper. Good beer to end a lunchtime session.

33cl Fles op de camping, ongetwijfeld waren de krokodillentranen van de VARgentijnen lekkerder, dit was een flinke bak alcohol en siroop, caramel, vrij zoet en een hoog zwerverspilsgehalte. Gebrouwen door Kronenbourg, geen enkele referentie naar Castelain op het etiket.

Spotty beige head on an amber coloured body.
Sweet, sweaty malt aroma.
Medium to full bodied, sticky & oily with a cloying back.
Sweet, toffee, syrup, spiced & berry tastes with a tangy finish.
Hard going.

0.50l can. Aroma of caramel, flowers, yeast, dried fruit. Pours clear amber color with thin creamy tan-like head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts with sweet toasted malt, yeast and dried fruit, following is phenolic, mouthfeel is warm alcoholic, while finish is grassy bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Not possible to drink it…

Sights & Swills Summer Holiday Beer#66. PONTORSON. My sixty-sixth beer of the holiday, and just a digit short of being the number of The Beast! This beast is a strong but tasty hoppy blonde with a few sugars and pale malts. This came in only a 25cl bottle so was over before it had begun!!!

Lattina. Il gusto al naso è indirizzato verso l'orzo tostato. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera normale e l'esistenza olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma resiste abbastanza. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Il colore è ambrato. Il corpo è medio. L'amaro è discreto. La forza gustativa è normale e permane in maniera sufficiente. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Al gusto vengono donati toni di caramello, miele, fieno bagnato, frutta secca, pane cotto di recente, un accenno di resinoso, erbaceo, agrumi e alcol presente.
