11.2 oz bottle poured in tulip glass. Nice carbonation, sudsy foam head-thin and fizzy from start to finnish. Orange tinge with a thin pallet. Crisp and slight citrus notes with a light hop presence. Had a bit of a nut-grain quality but not really standing out, even with the yeast from the bottom. Dry-semi sweet finish.

33cl bottle from Publix Supermarkets (Tampa, FL). Rated on 3/24/08. Pours a semi-clear golden color with a big, frothy white head that settles slowly. Aroma is spice, malt, faint sweetness, ripe fruit, bread. Flavor is faint malty sweetness, grass, straw, slight bitterness on finish. Generally light-bodied with a somewhat quick finish.

Bottle. Pours a hazy yellowish. Smells of classic abbey yeast. Taste is somewhat subdued but smooth. Aftertaste is subtle and straightforward. A nice example of Belgian Blonde.

Pours a nice gold with a white head ... pretty yeasty with a sweet smell ... a spicy aftertaste going down and the flavor stays in your mouth .... its not overly bitter just a slight amount a great beer to sip and relax to you cannot taste the 6.8% boy those abbeys know their blondes
