Bouteille 75cl. Orangée, col fin beige crémeux. Arôme offre une dominance de brett procurant ainsi ce bouquet typique que l’on retrouve quasi partout maintenant et qui est dès lors frappant dans cette série par la nature de ce bouquet fruité offrant tjrs ce côté abricot. Le bénéfice du boisé français reste en retrait avec un accompagnement malté basique de pils. Palais offre, ici aussi, le même caractère de brett que sur les autres versions. Note ce fruité d’abricot, léger brett tout comme le bois. Pointe d’amertume restant toujours dans le noble. L’idée aurait été mieux de faire un boisé français mais avec un houblon français, pareil pour les autres versions. Là on s’ennuie un peu. Amertume est noble et le caractère malté ne convainc pas plus.

75 cl. bottle sampled @ Barley Legal Tasting Room. Thaks to Kraddel! Hazy orange, huge white head. Nose is sweet white bread, banana, white sugar, light fruity hops mixed in the sweetness. Taste is sweet banana, buttermilk, sweet white bread, flowers, white sugar, light flowery hops. Yeasty white sugar body. Too much banana, bread etc. sweetness with not enough hops, bit bland & vague, not awful but looses too much being dull and vague trying to appeal to the masses. It is not awful like the Strong Blond was in the same series.

Bottle Pourd chocolaty brown , good white head Smell is metal and grains Too high carbo Taste is chemically bitter , some dark malt sweetness . Dark fruits , syrupy taste , yet watery mouthfeel .

Bottle Pours blonde , good white head . Smell is faded hops , simcoe style . Taste is sweet , bit hoppy ( not enough to be called ipa ) . More like a light blonde , with a hoppy character . Its doable ,

Bottle, 75cl, Delhaize. Cloudy blond beer, white foam. Medium carbonation. Aroma of tropical fruit (mango, passion fruit) with light malty notes. Hoppy and easy drinkable. Good Belgian IPA!

Bottle, 75cl. Amber/orange colour, white foam. Medium carbonation. Aroma of lemon and caramel with light malty notes. Little bit sour with sweet notes. Not bad.

Bottled @ Camping Ratebeers 2014, small sample. Bit boring belgian-like blonde beer as a base beer. Monk, which probably is some kind of trappist yeast, provides a bit more fruity touch perhaps. But it doesnt mask the base beer. Its still a boring belgian blonde.

Bottled @ Camping Ratebeers 2014, small sample. Bit boring belgian-like blonde beer as a base beer. Englishman should provide a much cleaner beer, but Im still tasting a belgian blonde. Did they use a similar bottling yeast for all their beers, which mainly makes the character of the beer? Nothing english about this one. Failed experiment.

Bottled @ Camping Ratebeers 2014, small sample. Bit boring belgian-like blonde beer as a base beer. Brett gives a bit of funk and complexity, which makes it way better. Nothing compared to the better Brett-beers around, but still quite nice. Best of the series.
