25/08 0.33 l bottle from from Coop store, Gradisca d’Isonzo. It poured hazy deep golden to orange body with medium to bigger head that lived quite short though. Fine tripel orange aroma, biscuity a bit, strong, but still not alcoholic. Strong malty flavor, biscuit, honey and orange bitterish, with notes of alcohol anyway. Simple, harsh, but kinda enjoyable. Finish was long, chocolate, orange and biscuit (jaffa cakes) slightly metallic and warming. A bit harsh, but I would say an average tripel, not great as it could be read from here. Still nice, of course.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Heavy’s. Big white head, misty golden body. Honeyish, fruity soft malty nose. Taste, orange-rind bitterness clashing with soft maltiness underneath and overrunning it soon ’nuff. Light pear too. Not that good. Slightly too harsh for its own good.

Hazy golden colour with a creamy white head. Spicy, yeasty aroma with lemon, cereal and fruits. Very balanced yeasty and spicy flavour. A very nice tripel.

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Aroma is sour bread, yeasty. Cloudy orange color with large white head...which was expected as the cork popped. Very fizzy texture, kind of thin. Dry aftertaste, great for a summer evening.
