Smells of dry malt, a touch of lingering wild yeast, some pepper, some perfume. Tastes dry with a nice bitter hint, lots of spicy hints, touches of salt. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is peppery. undsioux7 (561), Cologne, Minnesota, USA
| 5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 10/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jun 4, 2008 bottle courtesy of the grimreeser. Pours a hazy orange with a beutiful big white head. Aroma of belgian yeast, spice, lemon, orange rind and a bit of woody cellar. The taste is just like the aroma. Everything mixes so well with nothing overwelming. Its a bit thin, but I thank that is why i like it even more. Reminds me of calabaza blanca that way. oberabcbbsok (686), Hoboken, Belgium

How could I not give the baby brother of the other Westies a perfect score. The best I have had of this "style". If one can find it, drink it. Jerre (1768), Waregem, Belgium

This beer leaves a thick white head that drips down the side of the glass. Aroma is sweet, honey, plum, fruit cake. Taste different hops = wunderfull, the honey, bitterness. This is delicious with complex flavors and crisp taste. VERY GREAT BEER ! Belgik (72), Sterrebeek, Belgium
| 4.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Dec 1, 2001 Tasted today (together with the ’12’ and ’8’) at the abbey of Westvleteren ’In de Vrede’ café and cultural center...
Beautiful white head of foam tops a golden colored brew with lively fine bubbles...a sight!
Fine hoppy aroma, fresh and fruity. This is like the nose of a fine white wine, superb.
Very fine foam in the mouth, with subdues but excellent hop flavor, balanced and exquisitely fine. Long in the mouth and fully satisfying, and not ’heavy’ in the least, yet with a complete body.
Sub re-tasting, I believe the blond may well be my favorite beer of the trio! Hansen (2355), Randers, Denmark
