COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
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: 8-10ºC)

The king of abbey beers huh? Hazy goldish body not a lot of head here. Sweet and spicy. Not the king though.

StompBrockmore (316) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 4, 2006
330ml bottle - pours hazy gold with thinish white head - would have liked a bit more I guess. The colour under light is great. Aroma is bright and sweet, with citrus and yeast in evidence. The flavour is smooth and very flavourful, quite complex and fruity. There is a nice bitterness in the finish that lingers between each sip. Pretty traditional for the style, but very good.

sunevdj (2306) - Copenhagen OE, DENMARK - NOV 3, 2006
Pours a hazy golden with a white head. Smells of citrus, coriander and plastic. Very sweet with flovors of sugar and coriander. High carbonation. Hint of gunsmoke. Too sweet.

Good trappist, a bit fruity, could do with a bit more bitterness, but has nice esters in it.

mansquito (1607) - washington, Washington DC, USA - NOV 1, 2006
I tried this beer in Barcelona of all places. Nice full flavour, typical sweet and complex palate taste of most strong Belgian beers. Nothing really too different from the other Belgian beers I’ve had(Duvel, Chimay, Rochefort, Bush), but Affligem pulls it off pretty well. No real complaints.

Theis (8349) - Frederiksberg, DENMARK - OCT 29, 2006
Bottle at home - bought at Fakta (12,- kr.) Clowdy yellow - white head. Yeast, hop, licorice, wheat, citrus, orange. A good typical Abbey Triple, but a wierd sharp pointy finish.
