Bottle, 33 cl. Clear to slighty hazy golden color, with a foamy white head that quickly fades. Aroma fruity, little spice, yeast. Medium body. Taste bit sweet, hoppy, spicy, fruits and warm mouthfeel, alcoholic. Nice bitter finish. Good tripel.

Bottle. Pours a orange colour with a white head on top. Little floaties in the glass. Yeasty, belgianny aroma... as well as the flavour. Nothing special going on here..

Bottle from Venerables. Hazy dark orange colour, off-white head, with some sediment. Nose is slightly alcoholic, yeasty, bit fruity, brown sugar, a bot floral. Flavour is malty, caramel ,brown sugar, yeast, slightly alcoholic. Medium bodied.

Tastes like youre drinking rich melted butter, im glad its a small cheap bottle as i wouldnt really want much more.

33cl bottle. Pours a yellow liquid with bits in it. Big white head. Nose : lots of citrus notes with some other fruit aromas like for example lychee’s. Has this aroma of yeast like white beer. Soap. Sip : Well carbonated and fluffy. Sweet with little sourness. the end develops a little bitterness.

Aroma a cítricos, cebada y akcohol. Apariencia dorada con espuma que perdura hasta el final, En boca se siente cremosa y un poco picante. Retrogusto amargi con ligero sabor a naranja, aun que a mi gusto un poco carente de cuerpo para ser una cerveza con 9.4 de alcohol. En general una buena cerveza, que sin duda podría aún mejorar, entendiendo que es elaborada en Bélgica por la misma cervecería que elabora la famosa cerveza del elefante rosado.

Not particularly memorable as far as Belgian strong ales go, but decent. Dark amber, thick head. A bit of spice and citrus, but mostly characterized by its malty body.

Bottled. A golden yellow beer with an airy white head. aroma is malty, fruity and alcohol. Taste is fruity and spice, orange notes. warming alcohol in the end. A little unbalanced for me

From backlog

Head: white, tall , creamy
Colour: dark amber
Smell: malts, boozey, candy sirup, bit sweet bitter.
Taste: strong herby flavour, sweet malts, bit of burnt sugar/caramel, hops,dry end , boozey after , not bad !

Yellowish-golden, opalescent, a bit fizzy body with medium white head. A bit hazy and cloudy. Aroma resembles to cookies, vanilla and some milky softness. Despite of the high alcohol content, it’s easily drinkable, sweet but harmonic taste. Excellent brew!

Pours hazy orange with huge floaties and a thick foamy white head. Aroma is ripe fruits, alcochol, spices, coriander. Flavor is sweet fruity up front and more spicy sharp bitter and alcoholic in the finish. Quite strong and intense brew, a bit off-balance though. Still not bad.
