Keltius Trasno


Belgium Golden Strong Ale, abv 8.5%

Appearance: Dense golden pour. Looks almost unfiltered. Big billowy one finger head the settles down slowly to a decent layer on top of the beer. Very little lacing.

Smell: Light floral aromas, sweet with some alcohol. Mild herb smell, probably the cilantro they brewed with.

Taste: Very little up front then a rush of hops, cilantro, and alcohol. Hops linger the longest along with the alcohol. It becomes sweet after all that. 

Mouthfeel: Oils coat your mouth from the first sip. They fill your palette and stay there for awhile. Its an alcohol forward beer but the oils seems to balance it. 

Overall: Its a good beer. Could definitely back off the alcohol taste a little, but its good tasting. The hops and herbs seems to balance themselves out. It does fill your mouth and coat your palette in a great way. At its higher alcohol content, it would be a slower beer to drink.

3.5/5
