Belgian Blonde Ale·Belgium·5.5% ABV·One of 118 Belgian Blonde Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Grimbergen Brassin de Printemps's fruity and spicy character. Brassin de Printemps is the spring seasonal of the French Grimbergen range, a golden abbey beer at 5.5 percent with orange glints under a dense, creamy head. Apple dominates the nose and palate, joined by subtler notes of spice and fresh ginger, and the house yeast adds a light peppery edge. Sweetness, a fine bitterness and a gentle acidity stay in balance, and the finish holds on to apple and spice.
