Commercial Description:
Editor’s Note: Formerly known as Fraîche de l’Aunelle.

Brewed according to a recipe dating back to 1922, this "revisited" blond beer is a great thirst quencher, appreciated by lovers of traditional and innovative beers! Pale blond in colour and naturally cloudy, being unfiltered, Jenlain Fraîche is pleasing to the eye and to the palate, with its fine, light taste. Stronger than white beer and less bitter than blond beer, it has a subtle hint of hazelnut which gives it its characteristic fruitiness. With its low alcohol content (5 % alcohol by volume), it is also low in calories. Best served chilled but not too cold, at between 5 and 6 °C. The striking design of the bottle with its "condensation" effect, as if taken fresh from the fridge, and cool blue-green tones, is closer to the world of mineral and sparkling waters. Jenlain Fraîche stands out as a beer that is subtle, simple, accessible and extremely refreshing.

Bottle from Tanakaya ini Tokyo. Contains wheat malt. Medium golden blonde, enormous head, bubbly like champagne, cloudy. Fruity aroma, lots of citrus and grapefruit. Sweetish, some yeast. Honey. Sweetish flavor, but with citrus, honey, sour, hops. Very light body, refreshing as well, with sweet but not overly so. Lighter than a usual Belgian blonde, though tasking like one, but also something like a Golden Ale. Very interesting. A great summer beer. Not super, but nice and refreshing. Would dig a few more hops iin there.

Bottled. Slightly hazy pale golden colour, mediumsized beige head. Aroma is earth, caramel, yeast, malts and slight grassy hops. Also some very "earthy" note, which I really cant describe that well.

Bottle. Pours an enormous foamy head. Blonde. Fresh flavor with a very subtle bitterness and hints of soap and lemon. the emphasis is on freshness, but the beer is rather bland. Refreshing but uninteresting.

This beer with the promise of freshness in the name, has a golden color and a nice head. The aroma has notes of malt, a bit of hops and flower. The mouthfeel is rather flat. The flavour has light sweetness, notes of spice, malt, fruit, flower and citrus. I don’t think it’s fresh, and honestly I find it a bit boring, but drinkable. 1540

Bottled. Hazy golden-orange with a nice white head. Lime, grainy malt and sweetness in the aroma. The flavor is sweet and malty with some spicy hops. Medium body with some bitter notes. Not the best BdG. (061012)
