33cl bottle. Gold with a quickly diminishing white head; grainy aroma; oily texture, clying rather than refreshing, some tropical fruits, but most synthetic alcohol; finish is warming, bit in a battery acid kind of way. Not my idea of a blonde.

330 ml bottle. Dark red/brown body with a beige head. Aroma is sweet malty, spicy and fruity. Flavor is caramel malt, dry fruit, spicy yeast and some bitterness. This is much like a maltier, sweetier and bitter version of the regular De Konick. Flavorful and easy drinkable.

330 ml bottle. Hazy amber body with rather small off-white head. Aroma is caramel malt, fruity and a hint of this typical De Konic spiciness. Flavor is malty, a bit sweet, fruity and surprisingly light, almost no alcohol.
