Gribousine

Brewed by Brasserie La Binchoise
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Binche, Belgium

Bottle.Hazy yellow and a nice white head. Aroma is metalic and hopy and in the same way yeasty and flowery. A harsh palate.

Bottled (as Gribousine Malonne Blonde). Cloudy pale orange, creamy head. Fruity nose wit cinnamon , yeast and orange. Sweet and fruity, soft and medium bodied. Some sugar and marzipan. Yeast and orange remains dominant throughout. Quite laid back and pleasant

Bottle. Golden colour with a white head. Aroma is fruit, sweet, yeast, orange. Flavour is fruit, yeast, orange, citrus, spices. This is a nice beer for me.

Bottle. A slightly hazy, yellow-golden beer, gushing out of the bottle, and leaving a dense, white head. Tea, spices, pale malt and citrus in the aroma, which is good, but maybe a bit weak for a beer this potent. The flavor is more interesting, with orange, sugars and spices, quite fruity and sweet. The orange-flavor is reminding of the white stuff between the peel and the fruit meat. It could also use a fuller body. A nice Belgian ale, easy to drink, and pleasant, but not world class. (071123)

Cloudy blond with a small head. Weak aroma but quite spicy taste. Half sweatish nice palate with some alcohol tingling your tongue. A good beer.

chiara buona schiuma non molto persistente note delicate di malto e luppolo non impegnativa l’alcool non si sente ma la gassatura è eccessiva

Bottle, at London Shindig, August 2007. Hazy gold colour. Mildly spicy aroma with some floral elements and a touch of orange zest. More spicy notes in the flavour (coriander?), with subtle touches of yeasty fruit and a little citric bite. Distinctly sweet mouthfeel. Fairly light bodied. Not too boozy. Not bad but doesn’t really stand out from many similar beers.
