Tree times tasted. First on ZBF. Darkgolden to orange color, with small off-white head. Aroma spice, sweet, fruits. Medium body. Taste sweet touch, again some spice, fruits, bitterness, dry. A regular tripel.

Small to medium off-white head; listlessly carbonated coppery-orange beer; end of bottle fully opaque. Dry spicy nose, with white candi sugar, and faint orangey aroma. Dry flavours, with just some backthroat sweetness. Fleetingly a lightly smoked impression, toast and spiced orangepeel. More carbonated MF than visual; dry to medium dry; medium bodied at best; slightly viscous impression. Easily drinkable for a 7% tripel. Agreable, but nowhere exciting. Many thanks to Stef!

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Has a fruity malty spicy yeasty aroma. Fruity malty spicy yeasty flavor with some herbal hints. Has a fruity malty spicy finish.

Bottle Hazy yellow to orange body. Off-white, creamy/fizzy head which diminishes fastly. Aroma of oranges, hops, white grapes, flowers, liquor, even bit alcohol, porc (meat in general): you see it has an aroma with a lot of aspects (still, I wouldn’t call the aroma complex). Lightly bitter, moderately sweet flavour which is not as interesting aroma.
