Commercial Description:
New batch brewed at Struise, available from July 2008.

Dangerous Blonde is a funky triple style beer with a strong edge brewed first in December 2004 and released for New Years Eve 2005. It was once brewed at the Caulier facilities exclusively for Ølbutikken in Copenhagen, Denmark. Only 140 bottles of this exclusive batch were released at that time in numbered and sealed magnum bottles. We thought it was time for a Struise Deca revival! Deep golden orangey to amber body and a white creamy head. Has a nose with a complexity of different aromas. The taste is a little bitter, sweet and fruity acidity with little to medium carbonation. The finish is almost endless with again a bitter, sweet and dry aftertaste.

RBSG 2007. 2005 vintage bottle #091. The beer pours to a pale yellow body with a foamy white head. The aroma is a typical Belgian ale. Resiny raisins, estery bananas, and pears. The flavor is pears and yellow apples with a touch of spicy hops. Sweet, lightly alcoholic, medium-bodied and has a lingering sweetness, but it’s still refreshing.

One of the highlights of RBSG ’07. This beer might be the world’s second best tripel after Karmeliet. A very sweet and complex beer. Orange in color and an aroma that includes coriander, orange, bitter hops, and wild grass. Sweet and lots of sugar but also citrus, and pear, as well as more coriander and peach. A minor burn from alcohol, which is OK in a tripel. The beer is quite thick and like Syrup. Thanks for Yesper for carrying two giant bottles of this to the Twin Cities. I tasted from bottle 91.

Light straw yellow colour with a big old stark white head. Light and minty flavour. I couldn’t get an aroma off this one, finished with a bit of alcohol.

Magnum bottle. Light golden and hazy with a huge, white head. The aroma has notes of fruit, citrus and pineapple. The mouthfeel is lively and the flavour has notes of citrus, sweetness, a hint of elderberry, yeast, melon, a hint of bog myrtle and licorice just before the finish. Complex and nice, and the finish is very long. 1942
