| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Feb 9, 2009 A- Pours a cloudy orange/golden hue, small white head that is persistent, minimal lacing, lively bubbles
S- Nose dominated by hay and grass-like hops, some tones of fruits (apple, pear), sweet yeasty/bready malts, and a touch of alcohol
T- Initial taste is dry and bitter hops, followed by some sweet yeast malts and flavors of raisins and apples, alcohol presence near the finish which is again dry, bitter, and overly carbonated
M- Light-bodied, watery texture, carbonation is biting and overwhelming
D- Easy-to-drink BSPA, alcohol is well-masked, one could easily drink several of these in a row. However, the carbonation is too dominating and it lacks any outstanding qualities that would urge a repeat performance in my opinion. Agaguk (119), Gatineau, Quebec, Canada

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 21, 2009 A reasonable blonde, drinkable and nice but a little average for a Belgian. I used this to try and ween my lager loving friends of Stella. The dunces didn’t like it but I’ll keep working. Nice enough but much better in the style. jgb9348 (2499), Arlington (Pentagon City), Virginia, USA

Aroma of corn, wheat, coriander seed, light spices and some cardboard. Medium-bodied; Spicey taste up front with nutmeg, coriander seed and curacao up front. Aftertaste shows spice and some sweetness - nice and flavourful. Overall, more of a tripel than a blonde-Nice for the style!
