Our beer
Goldilocks – Belgian Blonde Ale
Goldilocks Belgian Blonde Ale is a delightful fusion of tradition and creativity. Brewed with premium Pilsner malt, Munich malt, and a touch of aromatic malt, this golden beauty offers a smooth malt backbone. The addition of coriander seeds, orange peel, and a whisper of ginger creates a refreshing and intriguing flavor profile.
Fermented with authentic Belgian yeast, this ale boasts a complex array of fruity esters and spicy phenols, giving it that distinctive Belgian character. The subtle bitterness from Saaz and Styrian Goldings hops perfectly balances the malt sweetness, making every sip a journey through layers of flavor.
At 6.9% ABV, Goldilocks Belgian Blonde Ale is strong enough to make an impression but gentle enough to enjoy glass after glass. Whether you’re unwinding after a long day or sharing stories with friends, this ale is always just right.
