Maredsous Blonde 6°
A slightly cloudy amber coloured ale with a huge, thick and long lasting white head.
The aroma is faintly of ginger, spices and dough.
Feel is very creamy and the tastes are relatively subtle for an Abbey Ale. There are flavours of berries, fruit, dough and a touch of coffee. A few spice tastes come through with a hint of vanilla.
The finish is lightly bitter with a taste that almost reminds me of buttered rum.
This is a good but not perfect Abbey Ale. It goes down great on a cold winter night and is better sipped and enjoyed than pounded. I found the flavours to be a little too subdued for my taste but a pleasant experience anyway.

Hitachino Nest White Ale A pale yellow color with a clumpy but short lived head. Spices and banana are all I can detect in the aroma. Full rich creamy mouth feel. This is nice. Lots of spice and banana with some hints of pepper. Easy drinking but also very flavorfull. I wish I had more but alas that is not to be with Japan still in shambles.
