The king of the abbey beers. It is amber-gold and pours with a deep head and original aroma, delivering a complex, full bodied flavour. Pure enjoyment! Secondary fermentation in the bottle. (Temp: 8-10şC)

Dark golden/reddish colour, minimal white head. Hops come out a bit sharply in the aroma with fruis and some malt. Intensifying bitter taste on the tongue balanced with yeast. Very good, remarkable brew.

mattphilips (721) - Budapest, HUNGARY - DEC 25, 2011
Pater Marcus, Budapest. Zavaros, pirosas arany színű főzet, melynek tetején tömör fehér hab található. Illata malátás, főtt kukoricás és gyümölcsös (banán, narancshéj, alma, mandarin). Íze határozottan malátás-gabonás és tripel-esen gyümölcsös, de a banán és a fűszeresség miatt egészen extrém szerintem. Testes, pezsgősen szénsavas és száraz. Nagyon ízletes belga sör, kellemes meglepetés volt.

Affligem Tripel has a thick, creamy, frothy, cream-colored head and a hazy, golden-amber appearance, with lots of little bubbles streaming up. The aroma is not particularly strong, but one can detect fruits and some malt. Taste is of fruit, nuts, malt, yeast, brandy, alcohol, banana bread, and a touch of bitterness. Mouthfeel is medium to thick, and Affligem Tripel finishes mostly dry and smooth. Overall, this is a wonderful beer, and I rate it very highly. RJT

I’ve had the pleasure of trying this twice on different trips to Europe. It has a rich, complex fruity flavor. It’s red color is very pleasing to the eye as well.
