rederic (1513), montréal, Quebec, Canada Jun 11, 2005 Golden honey color, with a thick foamy white head, leaving good lace, fruity note of citrus fruits, yeasty, citrusy, even hint of pineapple, pale malt aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with yeasty note, fruity flavors of apples, pears, pineapples, touch of acidity leading towards to a honey accent in a fine soft hoppy finish.
Calichio (484), Campinas, Brazil Nov 28, 2008 Degustação especial do Nonobier realizada no Bar do Italiano. Coloração dourada turva, com uma espuma branca volumosa, densa, de média duração, deixando uma camada generosa perene e marcas nas laterais da taça. Aroma agradável, se despreendendo com facilidade. Adocicada, cítrica, sugerindo damasco e casca de laranja. O conjunto é equilibrado. Carbonatação média. Refrescante. Álcool bem inserido. Beltramelli (471), Campinas, Brazil Oct 16, 2008 Coloracao alaranjada turva. Ceme denso e consistente, deixando uma camada perene no copo. O aroma e acido, com sugestoes de cascas de laranjas e damascos. O sabor, doce, segue o aroma. O final e longo e doce. fonefan (5558), Ulfborg, Denmark Sep 8, 2008 <b>Bottle 33cl @ home.</b><br />Clear medium yellow orange color with a average to large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, toasted, hay. Flavor is moderate to light heavy sweet and light bitter with a average to long duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft. (040708) Jerre (1422), Waregem, Belgium Jul 26, 2008 Yesterday @ home, bottle, 33cl. (bought Bierloods)
Almost clear golden color, with white head.
Aroma sweet, malts, bit spice.
Medium body.
Taste is close to Tongelo blond my opinion. Sweet malts, fruit notes, little hopsbitterness.
DruncanVeasey (1823), No. 46, Leicestershire, Belgium Jun 26, 2008 Lagery and lacy. Appealingly fruity Belgian snout initially suggesting apple, peach, orange…then the grassy/almondy Special Brew fumes kick in. Grass, rubber and marzipan in the mouth. FAR too much alcohol and little else to back it up at 6.3%. Nasty alcohol bitterness to finish, a lick of stale papery malt. Seriously unimpressive.
