4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Sharing Ern’s bottle so that he’ll quite jumping around raving about the aroma and let me be. :) Poured a murky, medium-orange color. And, despite the volcano impression the bottle is doing in the sink, the head is just average-sized, frothy, off-white, mostly and quickly diminishing head. The aroma is sweet and moderately malty with notes of caramel and toasted grain; Lightly hoppy with notes of dried apricot and grass; Heavily yeasty with pungent notes of cellar; and busting with heavy, fruity and spicy miscellaneous notes that include: orange rind, pumpkin, white pepper, honey, ginger and plenty of spicy, warm alcohol. Sexy, indeed. The flavor is heavily sweet, lighlty acidic and lightly bitter with a long, clean, warm, moderately bitter finish. The body is medium-to-full, the texture is creamy and the carbonation is average-to-soft. The alcoholic feeling in the finish is cozy and warming rather than harsh. Wow! Okay, this is something to rave about!

3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
33cl Bottle: New Years Day, in a bar on the Grand Place in Mons, Belgium.
The body had an orange hue, a slight hazy mistiness prevented me seeing through the glass; small head which became a collar and a wisp after my second sip.
Although I found some citrus esters in the nose and yeast aromas the overriding smells were sweeter: summer fruits and a caramel like maltiness.
I thought the taste on the sweet side, caramel and toasted fruit cake: the yeast tries to come through as well, but no real hop input flavour wise.
The alcohol content is well disguised, the sweetness being the only hint that this might be on the strong side. Overall too sweet, it does however slip down very nicely: one is enough for me in a session though.

En stiltypisk trippel som när den är relativt färskt är söt, vass, småbubblig och spritig. Stor lagringspotential. Drag av farinsocker och jästig beska. God.

Light sweetness and roast aromas. Copper in color with almost no head. Caramalty and sweet with a bit of spice undertone. A descent amber but not my favorite from this great brewery.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Almost clear amber beer with too small white head. Fruity and spicy nose and flavours, with banana, raisins, caramel, some dough. Yeast is again a over the bottle, even after a few weeks of rest. No point in trying to leave most of it in the bottle, simply won’t work. This is an ok drink though. Strong, full, lively but still rather soft carbo. Gets better when it warms up (started too cold at 6 celsius)
