This Belgian Blond Ale offers a uniquely Mediterranean interpretation of the style, showcasing 100% Italian ingredients. The sensory profile is headlined by a delicate harmony between grainy-sweet barley malt and a signature aromatic infusion of bergamot and coriander. These spices amplify the beer's natural citrusy esters and peppery phenols, creating a bright, elegant character. While the malt provides a soft, honey-like foundation, the Italian hops contribute a light earthy bitterness. The result is a crisp, sun-kissed ale that balances sophisticated spice with a dry, refreshing finish, making it a highly versatile and approachable aperitif.
Appearance.Deep yellow to deep gold (5-6 SRM). Brilliant clarity with a large, dense, and creamy white head that shows excellent retention and fine Belgian lacing.
Aroma.Moderate intensity featuring grainy-sweet and slightly toasty malt. A unique spicy-citrus profile emerges from the bergamot and coriander, melding with yeast-derived orange esters and light peppery phenols. A subtle earthy hop note remains in the background.
Taste.Initial grainy malt sweetness with hints of honey and cracker. The flavor is defined by the integration of citrusy bergamot and herbal coriander against a backdrop of lemon esters. Medium bitterness (approximately 25 IBU) provides balance without overpowering the malt. The finish is medium-dry, smooth, and clean with a light spicy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium body with high carbonation that creates a lively, bubbly sensation. Light, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present but smooth. The texture is soft and somewhat creamy, lacking any harsh astringency.
