This Belgian Pale Ale presents a nuanced profile driven by a unique three-grain grist, offering a refreshing departure from heavier monastic ales. The aroma is characterized by a delicate floral hop note—a true nez fleuri—layered over moderate bready and lightly toasty malt scents. Subtle yeast-derived esters of pear and red apple provide a fruity lift typical of the style. On the palate, a soft malt sweetness reminiscent of honey and biscuit is balanced by a gentle, spicy bitterness. The three cereals contribute to a refined mouthfeel and a smooth, clean finish, making this an approachable and elegant expression of the Spéciale Belge tradition.
Appearance.Amber to copper in color (approximately 10 SRM) with very good clarity. It features a creamy, rocky, white head with good persistence and light lacing.
Aroma.Moderate bready and biscuity malt aroma with light toasty notes. Moderate fruitiness is present, suggesting pear and apple. A low but distinct floral hop character complements the malt without overpowering it.
Taste.Initial soft, smooth, moderately malty flavor with biscuity and light honey notes. Moderate fruitiness follows, featuring pear and orange character. Low floral hop flavor leads into a medium-low bitterness. The finish is balanced to slightly dry with a clean, bready aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light to medium body with a smooth palate. Carbonation is medium-high, providing a refreshing crispness. Alcohol warmth is low and well-integrated at 5.2% ABV.
