2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 LordCorkscrew (1737) - Ronco Scrivia (GE), ITALY - SEP 14, 2007
UPDATED: SEP 18, 2007 Bottiglia da 33cl comprata alla Coop di Brescia; colore biondo carico, scarsa schiuma comunque persistente. L’aroma è a posto e anche abbastanza genuino, se non fosse per una nota d’alcool che si avverte fin da subito; il sapore è dominato dall’alcool, che sovrasta le caratteristiche dello stile. Non buona._______________ENGLISH TEXT HERE____________33cl bottle bought at Coop in Brescia; color is deep blond, with little but persistent white head. Aroma is nice and even genuine, if it wasn’t for a note of alcohol you can notice from the first time; flavor instead is dominated by alcohol, and this overwhelms the style characteristics and makes it a very disappointing brew (in the Affligem tradition...).
3.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Cobra (1076) - In a van, down by the river, Maryland, USA - SEP 12, 2007
750 ml. brown, Belgian bottle. Corked & caged. No freshness date seen. This sample was a little stale to be honest. Loud pop released the cork. Poured out a hazy Orange/yellowish color, with a big white head. Aromas are of Belgian funk, citrus fruits, orange peel. Flavors are of citrus peel, earthy hops, barnyard malts. Medium mouthfeel, medium body. Not the freshest Tripel I ever had, that much is certain.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20 davhix (36) - Colorado, USA - SEP 9, 2007
soft head over brilliant orange color in my orval glass. dry finish, but a pleasant one, not one that makes you want to find some water. i love this one. the smell/taste reminds me of the beers i enjoyed in waregem with a local friend last fall.
