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.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a foamy white head, and a clear yellow body. Aroma of apples, hay and peppeer. Taste is hay, and spicey with a cheap champagne like sweetness. Lightly fizzy and dry with some alcohol.

Bottle. Hazy pale gold with lots of head. Bold aroma - fruity, some spice. Medium body and strong carbonation. Fruity spicey start giving way to a moderately bitter finish. Overall, impressive but a bit unsubtle.

Bottled(330ml). -Pale golden coloured, medium sized white head, fruity honey nose. The taste is also fruity, malty and slight grassy with notes of honey alcohol, yeast and spices. Pleasant but in general ordinary Grimbergen.

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.

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...
