The blonde one in this standard Belgian abbey beer series, strange that it has escaped my attention so far as it must have been around for many a year now... Bottle from De Vidts in Sint-Niklaas. Medium thick, regularly shaped, snow white, moussy head slowly dissipating in the middle, over a clear and very purely golden blonde beer with an 'old gold' hue to it and visible strings of sparkling throughout, turning lighly hazy with sediment. Aroma of dried banana slices, old bread, freshly ironed cloth, cold omelette somewhere, dusty old coriander seed, powder sugar, dried peaches, straw, wet paper, chicken corn, honey, dried camomile flowers. Sweetish onset, banana ester with a chewing gum note to it but bearable, apple peel and slight apricot accents, dim sourishness underneath; sparkling carbonation but very standard for this style, slick and bit glueish mouthfeel. Very cereally, creamy and very soapy corn-ish middle, sweetish with residual sugars but not cloying, straightforward with a thin caramelly edge to it; leads to a very softly spicy and hoppy finish, floral as in dried field flowers or camomile tea, with minerally and metallic notes lingering and a soft, mellow end bitterish note alongside some soapy coriander - which I assume is the so-called 'gruut' they are referring to in the description. Plain, simple and hugely cliché as expected, but nothing really wrong or off-putting here; feels a tad metallic, too sweet and underhopped as usual for this kind of beers, but drinkable and in any case a lot better than Leffe Blonde or Grimbergen Blond - if you must have a taste of stereotypical Belgian blonde cloaked in a monk's frock, take this one instead of the more popular, aforementioned examples. Expected even worse, to be completely honest...

Glaasje van de tap gedronken in Brugge. Bier met de traditionele bleek gelige kleur. Licht troebel. Geur van mout en perzik. De smaak is plat en waterig met in de verte iets van mout. De smaak trekt snel weg.

From old tasting notes. Deep reddish brown color. Small bubbly tan head. Sweet caramel malt aroma. Tart yeasty malt flavor has a buttery caramel character and a complex treacle-like finish.
