Commercial Description:
This is a strong blonde beer, full of character with tertiary fermentation in the bottle yet still very accessible. Alc. 8% vol. Taste: The traditional Grimbergen recipe is enriched here trough the use of aromatic hops, which gives the beer its refined bitterness and hoppy character. The result is a refreshingly strong blonde beer.

Pours a clear gold color with a white head. Aroma of malts, flortal and some vanilla. Flavors of malts and vanilla, yeast and spices. Good carbonation and dry finish with a alcohol feel. A nice beer but nothing speacial.

Big creamy head, beer is light blond/gold. remaining for a long while in the glass. Aromas of herbs, ornage peels, fresh and hoppy. Full taste, spicey, slightly bitter, not so much carbon dioxide, although it’s fizzling in mouth. Complex beer, nice, tasteful.

Bottle. Clear yellow gold with large white head. Malty citrus aroma. Flavour is yeasty, little spice, coriander, grass, hops. Mellow for a tripel. Middle of the road but pleasantly surprised for a Grimbergen.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear yellowish golden, with a medium and fading white head and a hoppy aroma with hints of citrus, blueberries, plums, coreander and some yeast. The flavour is both fruity and hoppy, with some other sweet malts, yeast and dried fruits. Ejoyable, but quite dull
