A hazy orange beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma is sweet mostly with straw notes, while the flavor is sweet - but like the artificial sweetener of sodapops - that’s not my cup of beer.

Bottled (BB 06/2007)
Golden color, big foamy head, lace. Aroma has metal, burnt sugars and sweetish fruits. Medium-bodied. Good balanced bitterness and malt profile, decent alcoholic bite and long hoppy aftertaste. Hints of brown (burnt) sugars in the flavor. Extra sweetness (sugar) drops total value of this beer more to bulk tripel class, but I wonder what a couple of years in the cellar would do to this.

Straw-amber to honey-golden colour; very thick & fine, just off-white head, collapsing. Different malts, coriander, strange grains, fruity aromas. Totally fruity, lemonade-like taste with a vague grainy background. Artificial fruitjuice/sweets flavour. Very light MF as expected, but retronasal nearly syrupy impression. Well, it’s meant for the children. In it’s class it’s nowhere the worst - neither the best.

(bottle) Reddish brown colour with an ivory foamy medium head. Aroma of caramel, grapes and a bit mustard. Pleasant taste of toasted malts with spice, medium bodied, lasting & balanced (brown-)sugary finish. Good.

(bottle) Pale amber colour with a frothy white medium head. Fruity malty aroma with a touch of herbal hops and yeast. Slightly sweet malty and fizzy mouthfeel with a fruity and grainy finish. Smooth and crispy character, alcohol is barely detectable.

75cl bottle from Carrefour Calais. Gold colour with thinnish white bubbly head. Yeasty lemony aromas. OK in mouth with a touch of sweetness and some caramel. Finish is yeasty and dry. Ok but certainly not the best Belgian blonde

Light, generic malt aroma. Red with a small head. Malt and fruit flavors; the flavor is much better than the aroma. Medium body. Alcohol hidden well. Bottle was 2 years old.
