Mea Culpa Blond beer

Mea Culpa Blond is a Belgian-style blond ale with an alcohol content of 6.5%. It was first brewed in 2007 by Beer Mania, a specialist beer shop in Brussels, Belgium. The beer is characterized by its cloudy blond appearance, thick white head, and a slightly sourish aroma with complex spice, pale malt, and vanilla notes. The palate is softly malty and apple-fresh, with subtle spicing and herbal notes. The beer is brewed by Brouwerij Van Steenberge, a Belgian brewery known for producing a variety of beers, including Gulden Draak and Bios brown ales. They also produce contract and own-label brands. The name 'Mea Culpa' translates to 'my fault' in Latin, evoking both monasticism and self-indulgent wickedness, which is a common theme in Belgian beer branding. The beer is available in various countries, including Belgium, the Netherlands, and the United States.
