Aug 11, 2007 (Bottled) Clear golden with a smallish-medium, frothy head. Grainy-malty, slightly sweet-honeyish aroma with traces of rice. Something between Leffe Blonde and Russian Pale Lagers. Quite grainy-malty, neutral-sweetish flavor with some familiar, yeasty Belgian-style sourness, and fresh, grassy hops. Medium-bodied, quite soft-carbonated palate. I think this is quite close to what Page 24 Hildegarde Blonde would be with carbonation. A sweetish and straightforward, but easy and quite enjoyable summer ale.

Jul 28, 2007 75cl bottle. Golden colour, large and persistent creamy head. Spicy, quite hoppy and malty, full-bodied. Lovelly flowery hops from Falnders. I often use this beer as a present for people who like beer, but have no idea there are more beer styles than lager and Pilsener.

Jun 26, 2007 Clear blonde body with a short-lived medium white head. Grainy malts and chewy cereals make for a nice medium-full bready body. Medium honey sweetness with a light sugary note. All that is well balanced by grassy dry hops providing a mild but sharp bitterness. Forget about fruity flavours, spices or whatever. This is a very simple but well balanced effective blonde ale. I can’t help but to thinks that this malt profile and hopping would have been more appropriate in a lager environment but overall this was a pretty Goud ale.

Has some ingredients and the flavor is ok. Notes of fruits, yeasty bitterness, caramel, lightbodied. No my favorite, but ok.

Jun 3, 2007 500 ml can: poured golden yellow with a quickly fading medium sized white ehad. Mild grain and yeast aroma with a hint of banana. The first sip of this thing made me want to pour it down the drain. It was quite metallic and somewhat bitter. The alcohol seemed overwhelming. Subsequent sips the metallic taste toned down. Still that alcohol is coming through more than I like. Yeast, banana, grain, some sourness, and alcohol in the flavor. I’ll avoid it next time.
