Aug 12, 2008 Pretty orange beer. Sour and honey-y. Tropical fruit bitterness that doesn’t work with the honey prevents this from being a real gem. Medium body and soft carbonation. Very drinkable.

Aug 1, 2008 One thing can be said for Petrus beers- they are almost always at least pretty to look at. This blonde lacked the spiciness that would like from the style, but was fine otherwise.

Jun 28, 2008 a clear blonde beer with an orange hue under a small frothy white head. musty, peach, caramel, slighty soured aroma. flavors is butter, toffee, light tropical fruits, slightly sour. light-medium bodied.
wunderbier (1266), Tampere, Rovaniemi over summer, Finland
Jun 12, 2008 Burnt orange underneath a firm white froth. Forceful perfume aromatics and the sharp and musky aroma of dried apricots sink through chunky, stewed malts. Piquant acidity --made more so by sharp carbonation-- yields to caramel and drupe sweetness before a short floral and medicinal finish. Appropriately velvety and attenuated with sparse flab.
Peculiarly dank with a few sharp corners; lacks the crispness many Belgian blond ales manage.
33cl bottle, best before 09 July 2009.
