À propos

Vaurien V7 Blonde Dorée from Brasserie Vaurien in Neufchâteau is a Belgian blonde ale at 7% ABV. It pours a notably darker copper colour than many blondes, topped with a modest white head. The aroma reveals malt-driven caramel, bright orange citrus notes, and a gentle warmth from the alcohol, with underlying sweetness. On the palate, it strikes a pleasant dryness despite initial impressions of sweetness. Malt and cereal grains form the foundation, with caramel notes building toward the finish. The beer closes on Belgian candy sugar, a characteristic that some find becomes prominent as it warms. This beer earned a Silver medal at the World Beer Awards 2020.
