Baladin Birra Lurisia Sei

Brewed by Le Baladin
Style: Belgian Ale
Piozzo, Italy

Bottiglia da 75cl comprata da Squillari; era li da qualche anno: quando sono andato alla cassa per pagarla me la hanno spolverata. Bevuta ieri a pranzo insieme ad Alberto, con una pizza messicana (eh vabeh siamo dei buzzurri ma fra uomini si fanno anche ste cose e poi mica potevamo bere la LOWENBRAU). Straordinaria ale del Baladin che si fa apprezzare per la delicatezza dello aroma e dello abboccato; leggera, beverina ma tuttoaltro che banale. Non posso scrivere gli asterischi o gli accenti porca puttana.

bottle from ’06, very nice color of light yellow to golden, good carbonation and citrusy flavor, has a nice bitterness on the finish, I think this would have been better last year, seemed to be lacking and a little funky

Cloudy blond color; huge thick head. Very nice aroma and flavor, very refreshing, with a hint of coriander and citrus fruits, light residual sweetness, and very light sourness.

facile da bere leggermente speziata un filo di acidità torbida dolce quasi un panache

Interesting and pleasant aroma, spicy, fruity with a hint of melon. In the mouth I like it less, though it is pleasant enough, sweetish but a little watery and a bit winey...

Hazy orange beer with small, disparate head. Alcohol in the nose, with higher alcohols, orangepeel, citrus, citric (lactid?) acid. Definitely wheat and/or other cereal, refrained citrus flavour. Medium bodied, some malt filling. Well balanced beer, with nice fruity esters.

courtesy of Laurent Mousson - cloudy orange colour with a little persistent foam; the aroma is yeasty, bready with notes of orange peel and tangerines hidden below; very soft and creamy mouthfeel, some sweetness and a very low bitterness; short fruity finish (orange) - easy and quite tasteless
