Bottle from Speciaalbierpakket. Aroma is pale malt, coriander, spicy yeast, soft fruity notes, mild sugary. Flavour is medium sweet and light bitter. Body is medium. Pretty ordinary Belgian Blond, good yeast in the aroma, sweetish, simple but drinkable.

Аромат уже больше напоминает золотой крепкий эль, нежели обычный блонд, очень много приятной пшеницы а также цветочных ноток, немного дрожжей с намеками на мед. Цвет полу мутный, пенка неплохая и стойкая. Вкус тоже на уровне. очень сочные нотки от пыльцы цветов, снова мед и даже как будто груша с яблоками. В послевкусие снова пшеница с медом, весьма много газов. В целом очень хороший блонд.
