Huyghe - Delirio Blond
Apparently the earliest evidence of brewing at Melle, near Ghent in Belgium, is 1654 - according to the Huyghe brewery website. This blond beer has just 0.3% ABV and it arrives in a very distinctive 33cl bottle. Barley malt, oats, barley, hops and spices are ingredients listed on the label. The head disappears quite quickly when the beer is poured into the glass.The distinctive aroma of a Belgian blond beer is followed through into the taste - esters of ripe bananas and pears. The mouthfeel is soft and the finish has a slight touch of spice. Delirio is quite a sweet affair and overall I find this to be rather too sweet on the palate.
