A Medieval Good Ale!
La Goudale Blond, produced by Les Brasseurs De Gayant in Douai, France, stands as a representative example of a bière de garde, with its recipe and brewing process reflecting centuries of brewing tradition. The brewery's historical context, dating back to the 14th century where the term "Goudale" referred to "Good Ale," underscores the significance of tradition in its production.
The ale incorporates a complex blend of ingredients, including three varieties of Flemish hops, two types of malt (pale and caramel), wheat, rice, and spices (coriander and bitter orange peels), culminating in a 7.2% alcohol by volume (ABV) beverage.
The Goudale has garnered recognition in various competitions, a testament to its quality and adherence to the bière de garde style. Notable achievements include awards at the World Beer Challenge in Portugal and the Concours général agricole in Paris.
This Blond pairs exceptionally with a variety of foods due to its balanced bitterness and subtle floral and spicy aroma. Ideal pairings include lighter seafood and fish such as grilled salmon, tuna steak, and low-salinity oysters, enhancing their rich and mild flavors. It also complements lighter poultry and pork dishes like grilled chicken and pork tenderloin, with its crisp finish balancing the light flavors of these meats.
