Bottle at Waagstuk, Antwerp, Belgium, 02-03-08 Pours a shimmering gold with slight haze and quite huge head. Yeast spices and a lazy bitterness are the main features as is a tingly bitterness on the surface of the tongue, soft chewy fruitiness at the end, and really quite a nice beer.

Aug 10, 2008 33cl bottle.
Blonde color with thick white head.
Aroma is sugary and fruity (banana).
Taste is hoppy with a nice fruity touch (banana and vanilla) some sweeet candi-sugar and malts.
Very fizzy, grainy with barley and wheat, some orange peel and spices (coriander).
Not the best Grimbergen ever.

Aug 4, 2008 A Sim rate (bottle at Ramsgate "Brewery"): Smells like your typical Belgian blonde. Tonnes of malt. Sweet and syrupy. Really nice lasting head. Very weak, sugary flavour. Very alcoholic. Almost off-putting. So Belgian, but nothing special. I traded the last half of this in for an Orval. Mmmm...
