Het Kapittel Watou Blond

Brewed by Van Eecke
Style: Belgian Ale
Poperinge-Watou, Belgium

A hazy orange beer with a few chucks of yeast floating around beneath a huge off-white head. The aroma is powerful sweet with fruity and yeasty notes, besides some spices and hints of dust. The flavor is sweet malty with strong fruity notes, peaches and oranges, but also with a strong spice presence, where coriander is most dominant, the end is spicy dry, and the mouthfeel slightly sticky.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pilsener golden with a small, white head. Aroma of malt and yeast. Soft, light body with slightly sweet malt. Short, dry finish. Harmless and unexciting "Blond". 291005
