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.

Pour this slowly, you can get a serious head - stays but doesn't leave much lace. Nose is hazelnut and color is a cloudy amber. Serious amount of chunky bits that settle to the bottom - they do not detract from the excellent flavor. Just a slight hint of yeast. Good mix of malts and hops but the malts dominate. A 750ml bottle is $13.95.

Champagne-esque pop, frothy beyond belief. Very fruity aroma, something like bubblegum, vanilla, nectarines, with a hint of hazlenut. Loads of sediment in the ensuing yeast storm. Decent palate, very silky yet robust feel that stirs echoes of Belgium’s better selections. This ambrosial mélange embodies the etheral countenance of an accomplished brewer. I dare say it is the best thing since chewable liqour.

Light lemony tea aroma w/ sweet undertones, this beer has a deep golden orange color w/ good head and lacing. Very citrusy and sweet, good effervesence.

Speckled glowing peach. Sticky, creamy, semi-rocky, dusty-white head. Medicine, rich honey, and soft phenols in the aroma with hints of vanilla, dates, plummy/buttery malts and spicy herbs. It’s also lightly vinous and musty and packing just enough fruity esters to deflect the elegant caramel and cream notes. Soft body. Firm, tiny-bubbled carbonation. Starts maltly sweet with light herbal qualities trying to penetrate the rich, maris otter-like malts. Very bright. Mild phenols, anise, and juicy herbal hops poke through, cushioning the fluffy malt sweetness. Ends with melted toffee atop a leafy edge and luscious blanket of malts. Lingers with lipsmacking malts and figs drizzled with honey and vanilla. Gentle noble hop burps. Sensational brew.

luminous orange in light's presence but remaining dull amber in the shade..it always held a firm layer of frothy bliss..musty dried fruits foxtrot in the air as the apricots come alive...a comfy pillow of creaminess awaits as it emits fruity flavors that just hint of being lightly spiced...drinkable beyond words..italian? hmmm...chewy fruitiness makes this a seeker-outer! No doubt.

Opens with a champagne pop and proceeds to froth all over the place. Nice apple smell trying to get it over the sink. Pours a reddish orange-gold with a copious frothy white head. Mild floaties. Aroma is alive with estery goodness. Apple, mild cherry, pear and pineapple. Flavor is very complex, with both a yeasty breadiness and a very fruity esteriness. Candy sweet, with tons of apple and pineapple. Very very mild hopping, which is overwhelmed by the sweet sugariness. Nice belgian style. Finish is mildly sour and dry, which serves to compliment the amazing sweetness. Light bodied, very effervescent. Very surprising, being from Italy. For the price, this had better have been as good as it was. Not a waste of money.

Amber color with a thick cream head and lots of things floating around busily in the body. Aroma is sweet and spicy at the same time. Smell of lemon, apricot and apples balanced with coriander and clove. Falvor has a ciderish hint of apples withing a stellar belgian strong. A very warming feel in this combined with an ending bitterness that is slightly grassy and makes this end with a lemony taste. Wonderful beer.
