Affligem Tripel

Brewed by Brouwerij Affligem / De Smedt (Heineken)
Style: Abbey Tripel
Opwijk, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip

Lots of sediment in my bottle so it is not pretty to look at. It tastes a lot better then it looks. Lots of fruit: banana and apple. Very tasty and easy to drink. A very good example of a Belgian Tripel

Rich golden color with a massive, bright white froth. Aroma of banana, cloves, graham cracker, musty yeast and lemon peel. Moderately sweet, mildly sour flavor with some medicinal and moderate alcohol notes. Very pillowy, moderately carbonated mouthfeel. Alcohol is a bit too hot for my taste, but this is still quite good.

Pours golden with nice thick head; aroma is sweet with some honey and Belgian yeast aromas; taste is smooth and rich, very nice

Affligem Tripel pours out to become a clear, golden, slightly carbonated tripel with a nice, fresh head. Aroma has hints of apple, yeast and a bit of alcohol, but not disturbing. Flavour has some herbs I can’t place, fresh malts and a apple-like taste. A cross between a Granny Smith and a Jonagold. Good beer, perfect for drinking among friends

Pours cloudy yellow with chunks and a large white head. Aroma is malt, fruit, marcipan and almond. Flavour is malt, alcohol, fruit, almond and orange.

(bottle). Clear deep gold color. Medium off white, creamy head with good retention. Moderate fruit-citrus aroma, with moderate spice and light malt. Flavor of the same. Avg duration. Light dry finish, with light alcohol and light lasting sweetness. Slick texture. Medium body. Moderate to high carbonation. Good lacing.

Presa per caso in un supermercato, non pensavo di trovarmi di fronte una splendida tripel. Colore netto dorato con buona schiuma, aroma classico, ma è al palato che la nostra dimostra le migliori qualità.

Bottle. Clear yellow coor, medium white head. Aroma of dirt and citrus. Taste is lemon peel, white pepper, straw. Not complex.
