Brouwerij Verhaeghe Vichte

Belgian Blonde Ale·Belgium·7.5% ABV·One of 114 Belgian Blonde Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Barbe d'Or's fruity and orange-y character. Barbe d'Or is a strong, bottle-conditioned Belgian blond ale from Vichte. It pours a bright, golden colour under a firm white head. The nose brings light pear and citrus fruit from the Belgian yeast, over a bready malt base with a whisper of honey. The palate is medium-full and lively, with soft malt sweetness, pear and orange notes, and a moderate herbal hop bitterness. The finish is dry and warming, with a light spice from the yeast and the alcohol.
