Clear copper and light bronze coloured body with a half centimetre tall tan head. Aroma of apples, pears, caster sugar, light yeast, malt and the slightest touch of herbal hops. Assertive effervescence; Medium-bodied; Strong apple and pear flavour up front with a malty and sugary sweet flavour coupled with some dry hoppiness with a little earth and floral notes. Aftertaste shows some more sugars of apples, peaches, pears and even bananas, but the dry notes don’t really come out, nor do any real hop flavours. Overall, a decent beer that misses the mark a little bit, especially with no real hop flavours detected, just a syrupy sweet belgie with some decent tastes. Still, i’m happy I brought it back (just because it’s on the rarer side) and it always pleases me that you can find any odd beer in any random shop in Belgium and have a nice rare beer for cheap - always - it just brings a smile to my face and makes me want to return, every day. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from De Bier Tempel in Bruges [Brugge], Belgium on 14-August-2013 for €2,55 sampled at home in Washington on the other side of the Atlantic, after just booking a trip for Europe again today (for ten days from now) on 01-April-2014.

Glass from a bottle at the 2014 Brugge Beer Festival, sampled along side it’s Blonde brother (which I prefered to be honest). Pours a pleasing amber (who would have thought it would be amber?) colour with a thin white head. Nose is caramel sweet with a mixed fruit bowl and yeastiness. The taste again malty sweet with a fruit feel, some light spice notes: didn’t float my boat really. medium bodied and OK overall, it just lacked an alcohol kick compared to it’s Blonde stable mate. Decent enough but it did not stand out like so many others I had before and after it on the day.
