De Grott Dorada
This Belgian Blond Ale radiates a luminous golden hue, offering a refreshing and sessionable interpretation of the style. The sensory experience is lead by a notable aromatic presence of Patagonian hops, which contribute a unique regional earthiness and floral depth to the traditional profile. A lean malt backbone featuring Pilsner malt characteristics provides a soft, crackery foundation that supports delicate citrusy esters and a hint of peppery spice. Despite its lighter body and approachable alcohol content, it retains a sophisticated Belgian character, culminating in a crisp, moderately bitter finish that highlights the fresh, aromatic quality of its southern-hemisphere hops.
Appearance. Deep yellow to gold (approx. 5 SRM) with a brilliant clarity. Rises with a dense, creamy white head that exhibits excellent retention and leaves characteristic Belgian lacing on the glass.
Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a light grainy-sweet and crackery malt profile. Notable aromatic hop presence from Patagonian varieties lends earthy and floral notes, complemented by subtle yeast-derived esters of lemon and orange with a faint peppery phenol background.
Taste. Initial impression of light grainy-sweet malt with a hint of honey-like sweetness. The hop flavor is prominent, showcasing earthy and spicy Patagonian hop character. Moderate bitterness provides balance against a low-intensity yeast profile of citrus and pepper. Finishes smooth, soft, and medium-dry with a lingering clean malt and herbal hop aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Light body with high carbonation that creates a bubbly, effervescent sensation. Very low alcohol warmth due to the sessionable ABV. Smooth and slightly creamy without any harshness or astringency.
