Draft at ’t Brugs Beertje.
Nice presentation, with the clear blond color and semilarge white head. But I do not like the logo.
Sour aroma. Sweet and fruity flavor at the start, bitter and spicy finish.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 JoeinEscazú (1181) - San Jose, COSTA RICA - JUN 9, 2009
Bottle, from... can’t remember. Pours clear and bright yellow-gold with a big frothy head. Tangy, boozy nose like unripe pear drizzled in white rum. Quite a sweet beer, with a clean, even bitterness arriving late with a face-warming smack of alcohol. More sticky than lively. Bittersweet aftertaste. Sweet and strong and that’s the gist, there must be 100 tripels in Belgium just like this one.

draft sample @ 5de Brugs Bier festival.
Dorée, col blanc épais. I guess a warming palate when you are drinking this outside and it’s -12°c.
Houblon et malt amer restant dans une lignée typique belge. Ça se laisse boire, mais sans plus. Pour moi, le profile avait un côté diacetyl assez industriel pour un fini amer houblonné et malt.

Bright blond colour. Aroma is a bit of sour yeast. This comes through in the flavour too. Texture is quite smooth but feels a bit too watery. Aftertaste is slightly medicinal.

Bottled (Bs, BBE 2010, "L01A-2008").
Hazy yellow color, small white head. Yeasty, barnyardish nose with pear sweetness and some iron. Apricot fruity and very alcoholic and spicey flavor. Long sweet alcholic aftertaste. Just like some European strong lagers ...

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of yespr. Pours a hazy golden with a lacing off-white head. Comes as a bloody violent gusher. Phenollic, yeasty sulphurous aroma. Medium body, sweet and fruity with tons of phenols and a distinct oxidized note. 030511
