Pours a clear amber colour with a good long lasting white head.Excellent carbonation. Aromas of malts, toast, grapefruit, tangerine, quite herby. Heavy citrus burst in the taste with flavours of brown sugar, malts, apple, pear. Finishes hoppy, sweet and bitter. Very nice tripel. KM (238), Tromsø, Norway
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 23, 2009 Bottle. Large fluffy head. Brown, slightly unclear body. Quite fresh aroma of hops and malts. A little like traditional christmas beer. Sweet malty flavour, sweet from the alcohol I guess. Like a lager with much alcohol. (At home, 04.09.09) joechristenson (14), Minnesota, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 16/20 | Nov 20, 2009 Great looking beer -- it is opaque, resembles an unpasteurized apple cider. Deep golds. Lingering head -- sticks to the glass, but quite white in color. Smells of a tincture of alcohol, but also fermenting golden apples near fallen brown leaves in an orchard. Palate is full and satisfying -- almost bold, but not overwhelming. Quite sweet, anticipates a tang that never arrives. Detectable yeast and faint alcohol, but these add to the rustic quality of the beer. Almost creamy, traces of brandy, too. TaxiDriver (934), Stadland, Germany
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 17, 2009 The aroma of roasted bread and malt, also some hints of alcohol (wine). the head is small, white and creamy-milky with a short duration. The body is dark red. The taste is light bitter and malty, like the aroma also a little bit like a red wine. The body is medium strong, creamy and with a lively carbonation.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 16, 2009 Golden color and very long lasting white foamy head. Nose almost like brandy. Fruity and candy like taste with a tickling tartness on the tongue. Alcohol warmth and distinct alcohol notes in the taste. Sweet fruity finish. Nekronos (2263), Xalapa, Mexico
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 16, 2009 Better, but still have soemthing missing. I like the orange peel taste and the foam. rpm56 (7), USA does not count | 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 15, 2009 Om tap at the Blue Monkey. Earthy and muddy on the nose, with some barnyard tendencies. A distinctive and different tripel that has spice and subtle hop notes. Not my favorite, but a decent beverage.
