Strong alcohol aroma along with malt. Taste expands on that with a stronger malt, alcohol, and slightly whisky-ish presence. Maybe peach as well. Supposedly this has gin added to it at some point and there is that dryness from gin in this beer, especially during the finish. Has a nice whitish head and decent carbonation.

Medium short-lived white head. Aroma is floral, alcohol and a fruity notes that I’d describe as pumpkin seeds. Body is pleasantly smooth and oily. Taste is fruity yeast, candied fruits (pears, oranges), thick flower juice and alcohol. Hops are either inexpressive or killed by the alcohol. Sweetness is moderate to high. Pleasant typical Belgium carbonation. I got used to the alcohol fairly quickly and after a few sips I was enjoying the beer. Unfortunately that the Belgian beer scene is filled with similar but inferior strong blonde ales and most of them are just a blip on the Rader Ambrée. BartC (402), Lichtaart, Belgium

Toffee, yeast, brown sugar and fruit. Flavor is a bit understated with some malty sweetness, wet wood and darker fruits. All in all just average at best. Mads Langtved (2246), Copenhagen K, Denmark
