Bottled. Amber colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is nuts, yeast, hops and some caramel. Flavour is fruits, yeast and some nuts. Quite typical De Koninck product. Some slight spicyness also show once it gets warmer.

Draught@Oud Arsenaal. Amber colour, beige mediumsized creamy head. Aroma is nuts, fruity hops and yeast. Flavour is almond, some fruits and yeast. A lot of other nuttyness in it too. Different thing, but not necessarily among my favourite brews...

A light amber ale with a thin lacing off white head. Aroma of sweet candy malt, and coriander. In mouth, crisp malt, with light metallic notes, warming alcohol, a bit simple. A simple little Tripel. Bought at LCBO, Dec. 2006. BB 15-05-2006.

Bottle, 6%. Clear golden colour, OK white head. Fruity aroma. The flavour is also fruity, a little yeasty with a hint of veg. But the alcohol does well to harmonize the beer.

Fruchtig-malziger Antrunk, eine süße Note versucht sich erfolglos durchzusetzen. Malzmuffiger, etwas wässriger Mittelteil, die Herbe setzt sich langsam durch und wechselt nach und nach ins trocken bittere. Leicht hopfig. Kann mich nicht vom Hocker reißen. Test vom 20.3.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,8,9,8,5,9 - 8,50

330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal pub, Stavanger. ABV is 5.0%. Brown colour, low head. Moderate but pleasant fruity aroma, hints of spices. The flavour is spicy with moderate malts, not very sweet, pleasant to drink. Relatively high carbonation in the glass. This is not an "extreme" Belgian ale in any way, and no "challenge" for the beer enthusiast, but probably an ale that most people will like.

Huge white creamy head over clear yellow body with carbonation. Deep aroma of tropical fruit and soft metal, as well as notes of wet paper and honey. Light papery tropical fruit taste, slightly acidic. Dry soft metal and water aftertaste with spice notes. Not bad, but some flaws, and a bit boring. (0.4l on tap at de Groote Witte Arend in Antwerp, where it was billed as "de Arend Blond". It really is de Koninck Blond, though.)
