Day 335 - Gouden Carolus

So, last night of 2010, and took a risk on this one. A Belgian brew, which typically aren't my favs, but this one claimed a decent hops hit, so went for it. Plus the bottle was big and classy looking, so fits the night.

This one almost glows it is so yellow/orange in true blonde fashion, and like most BAs, the aroma is kind of fruity/spicy causing some trepidation. It is definitely a big taste, though the hops only play a minor role, perhaps providing the dry finish. It does still tug on the tonsils as it goes down, like all its brethren.

Specs:

Full Name: Gouden Carolus
Brewed By: Brewery Het Anker
From: Mechelen Belgium
ABV: 8%

So, using the blog to get out of having to watch some chick flick with Drew Barrymore, and will try and milk the big bottle as long as possible. Luckily, ellie doesn't read my blog so I won't get busted writing that, t least not until well after the fact... ;>)

HNY to all, hard to believe I'm down to my last 30 days.
