Cette St Paul Blonde n'est pas mauvaise avec un ton très belge dans les arômes. Mais celle-ci possède de nombreuses fausses notes avec notamment un manque de puissance et de longueur. EN verre nous sommes sur un blond doré limpide avec très peu d'effervescence, de grosses bulles et une mousse blanche nappant la surface. Le nez est classique sur les céréales, la coriandre avec une pointe de girofle et d'écorce d'orange et avec un alcool qui se fait tout de même bien ressentir. En bouche c'est gentillet tout de même avec un manque de caractère. L'attaque est tout de même intéressante et relativement équilibrée. La deuxième bouche manque de vivacité mais plaisante avec une légère douceur maltée agréable car compensée par une fraîche amertume. L'alcool est trop limite toutefois. L'alcool est un peu plus marqué en arrière-bouche mais celui-ci est quelque peu mal intégré et dissonant. Le final est quant à lui très court et sans intérêt. Il y a de la Belgique dans cette St Paul Blonde, c'est indéniable, mais il y a un air de non abouti.

Backlog June 2010. Slightly unclear golden body under a big, creamy white head. Nice, mils spicy aroma with esters. Taste is sweet malt with a slightly fruity kind of acidity giving this a more fresh impression than the typical Belgium sugar/malt flavor. Medium body and fresh aftertaste as well. Not a classic Blond, but I find it interesting and very easy drinkable.

Bottle from Wine Raks, St Swithin St Aberdeen. It pours golden blonde with a lasting, thick fluffy white head. The aroma is quite soft, malt - forward, bready, cereal, toasty grain,.soft estery fruits, melon and pear. The taste is dry, quite crisp & snappy, bitter - sweet, sweet - sour, green banana, zingy candied lemon, hint of acidity, some pear, melon, grass, toasty grain, cereal, cracker and dull spice with a bitter - dry finish. Medium body and moderate, fluffy carbonation. There is a freshness and zing to it, which stes it out from other triples.

Donkergeel vrij helder bier met zonder schuim. Smaak is fruitig en licht bitter met iets van champagne en druiven. OK, maar niet echt bijzonder.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a very dark brown with a reddish hue (mahogany like) and a thinnish creamy beige head. Nice lacing on the glass. Aromas of dry dark fruits, plums, chocolate, liquorice and some toasty brown bread. Taste has more of the dry dark fruits, more plums and more chocolate and liquorice. A light tartness and also a light touch of sweetness. Quite well balanced. Thin to medium body with average carbonation and slightly oily mouthfeel. Decent slightly above average Dubbel.

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a slightly hazy copper colour with a thin soapy looking off white head. Aromas of caramel, citrusy orange, with hints of spices and tobacco. Taste has more of the caramel and citrus notes and a touch more spice. Sweet tang on the finish. Thin to medium body with a slightly fizzy mouthfeel.Nothing special but not bad considering the low abv for a Belgian brew.
