Commercial Description:
Grisette Blonde is a pale ale that is very refreshing in summer. When drunk at a moderate temperature, it releases aromas of a richness that it is seldom found in other beers of this strength. Its head is smooth and white. It has a light yellow colour.

Bottle at Delirium. Mild musty odor. Gold with a lacing white head. Musty, woody, anise suggestions in the flavor. Decently astringent.

Bottle. a cloudy yellow beer with a medium sized and fast disappearing white head. The aroma is overall nice, some malt, and notes of coriander, citrus, orange peel. The flavour has a moderate sweetness and a light acidity. Some spiciness. Soft mouthfeel, light body, lively carbonation, medium finish with light bitterness. Surely better than expected, but, no surprise, is too watery.

Blond coloured beer with lots of carbonation and an average white head. Fruity hoppy bitter aroma. Medium to full palate. Finish is fruity and nice hoppy bitter.

A very nice beer and a well-executed concept: a blond flavor profile with pilsner strength. The result--a beer that’s as clearly refreshing as it is clearly a break from a pilsner, wheat or other low-octane brews. A real winner for its strength.

Bottle, thx to fonefan. It pours and almost clear, golden body under a decent white head. Fruity and citrusy aroma with a little cellar note. Fruity flavor too, with pale malt and a little spicyness, leading to a dry, fruity finish. Medium mouthfeel. Sure a quaffable beer, but it’s rather boring. Nothing wrong with it, except that it’s weak and next to uninteresting. (080412)

Bottle, 4.5%. Weak aroma of citric fruit. Hazy golden colour. Sparkling. Good, stable white head. The flavour has some citric fruit, slightly teaish. There is a thin malt base which does not really hold up to a weak but rough hop flavour.
