Beers similar to Bernard Bohemian Ale

Belgian Strong Golden Ale·Czech Republic·8.2% ABV·One of 51 Belgian Strong Golden Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Bernard Bohemian Ale's fruity and spicy character. A fruity scent, a clean malt taste with a pinch of spicy coriander and a gentle warmth in the finish. Yeast is added at bottling, so the beer keeps fermenting in the bottle, which is why the brewery jokingly calls it the sparkling wine among beers. Top-fermented, brewed with barley malts, hop products, sugar and coriander.
