To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the "Cuvée van de Keizer Blauw", the brewery launched a blond-version : Cuvée van de Keizer Rood. This beer is similar to the previous Gouden Carolus Easter Beer. Blond rich beer that is brewed each year during the easter period. It contains several types of malt and during brewing 3 herbs are added. It's golden blond colour, it's high alcohol concentration of 10 %, it's full and balanced taste make this beer into a source of vitality and strength which will appeal to the demanding beer taster. For ideal tasting pour out gently in one pull to a temperature round 7-8° C. Served with pride it is drunken with respect. This pleasant golden blond beer is chosen for he who loves a richer, somewhat spicy and refreshing beer.
Disclaimer: This is a blond version of the Cuvée Van de Keizer, introduced in 2008. The label has a red diagonal line.

[1] Review by ante from Stockholm, Sweden who has tried this beer once. (9/26/2008 3:11:38 PM)
" Pours out in a hazy golden colour with a rich lasting white foam. Sweet and fruity aroma of yeast, canned oranges, candied apricots, over-riped oranges, almonds, mild spices and alcohol. Full-bodied with notes of almondy yeast over-riped yellow fruits and mild alcohol. Quite smooth mouthfeel. Slightly warming spicy finish with notes of canned apricots and over-riped banana."

[2] Review by Vac from San Diego, California, USA who has tried this beer once. (7/16/2008 10:47:33 AM)
"On tap at Toronado San Diego. Pours with a golden body with no head or lacing to speak of. It’s sweet and malty with lots of floral notes, and an underlying spice note. Light to medium bodied, tingly with the slightest bit of dryness. "
