Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours black with a large thick foamy beige head. Faint aromas of roasted malts, dark fruits, chocolate and caramel. Taste is a touch sweet with more dark fruits, plums, some ash, roasted malts, a little chocolate and a little brown sugar. Quite nicely balanced between roasty and sweet. Medium to full body with fairly low carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Pretty good!

Bottle from Drinks Vanuxeem, Ploegsteert, Belgium. Pours a hazy golden colour with a large thick foamy white head. Aromas of ripe yellow and stoney fruits. Taste has more of these notes with some added candy notes, some doughy white bread, peppery spice, a light grassy hop and some sugar on the sweetish finish. Medium body with average carbonation. Decent enough Blonde if maybe a touch too much on the sweet side for my personal preference.
