Commercial Description:
The masterpiece of the brewery. The beer that mostly encountered the favour among the customers at Le Baladin. Although one wouldn't believe that, it's the most alcoholic among all the productions. It originated from an old recipe created toward the end of the '800 following the style of the belgian abbey beers. Intense aroma of warm flowers, apricot and banana and hints of bitter almond. Agreeable, refreshing and quenching taste of apricot in syrup, almond cake and citrus fruits. Excellent the use of belgian selected hop during the fermentation process. This beer matches perfectly with ripen cheeses, biscuits and almond sweets.

Pours bright amber into a trappist glass. Off-white mixed head quickly subsides with slight lacing. Sour cherry and brett aromas. Smooth with sticky sour pit fruits and anise. Lasting dry spiked fruit finish.

75 cl bottle. Dark orangey-amber, some haziness, medium-sized offwhite head. Fruity aroma, a bit sour. Sour fruit flavours, alcoholic, doughy, Christmas pudding flavours. Full body, almost crunchy, warming alcohol. A nice winter warmer from Italy.

Pours a murky deep orange with a white head that falls to a film. A sour fruit aroma. The flavor is slightly tart. Sweet malts upfront with a fruity sourness of cherries & pears on the palate and a late raisiny finish. Refreshing and balanced.

Bottle from Super Saver. Pours turbid deep coppery/brown with 2-finger off-white head. Aroma of fruit, caramel malt, some peaty and nutty hints. The flavor is caramel malty, with big dark fruit. Complex palate that is on the dense side, and rather lively. As it warms, it gets a bit more tart, perhaps even approaching Flemish sour territory.

Been wanting to try this for a long time. Saw it in Indianapolis, and I would have picked it up back then, but I just couldn’t cram anything more in my luggage. Delighted that this has finally arrived in Richmond, courtesy of Once Upon a Vine. Medium orange copper brown, small but lasting head. Distinctly dusty and slightly smokey aroma, rather unique actually. Flavor actually matches the description by the brewer, apricots and almonds abound, really not much like the nose. Definitely a note of sourness throughout. I want cake when I drink this. Not bad at all, I appreciate the clearly Belgian influence of this beer, yet it still has its own unique thing going on.
