drank when i worked at the dodentocht ( in the village this was named after) . they’re realy proud of this one there! ( and the brown, too, but back than i drank only blond beer ) . should they be ? wel , i remember it being just that hint better than the oh-so-inspirationless , huge group of belgian blonde beers. so i’ll rate it 0,1 better than these. but thats just it. not that memorable, not worth searching for ( when you live in belgium) . meh

Long day at work, picked this from the cellar. It bought it at Lidl a week ago, as part of a packet of six belgian beers. Poured into my tulip glass. ABV 9%. Pale orange golden colour on the body wuth light activity in it. What it was great, was the foam. Almost three fingers tall, snow white in colour and with excellent retention, seemed like it stayed there for ages. When finally went down a bit, it had left a nice lacing around the glass. Nice fruity aroma, with apricots, some banana notes, kind of yeasty too. Nice and discreet. Nice bitter taste from the beginnig, very refreshing, just what I need right now. Fruity as well, although less than the aroma was promising but that doesn’t matter that much. The fruity notes have moved onto the aftertaste though, where they balance the bitterness a bit. Medium thickness on the body, good carbonation. Fairly dry on the palate. Overall nice tripel, I made a good choice picking this one up. Hopefully the 9% ABV will send me for a nap in a while too.

33cl, bb 09-07-2014. Dorée, col épais blanc. Arôme est typique et présente ce nez triple moyen, belge et fleuri, note citronnée, houblonné avec une pointe de grains. Palais de triple typique, note fourrage, levure couplé à une pointe de fleuri. Le tout garde un côté houblonné léger et le profile triple semble vraiment à la ramasse pour une version double qui me semblait nettement meilleure. Une douceur résiduelle subsiste pour une effervescence haute et un malt maïs.

Pale blond. Aroma is floral, perfumey. Flavour has a light sweetness featuring banana. Alcohol comes through in the finish. Carbonation is excessively high.

Cloudy yellow with a thin white head. Sweet cereal aroma with notes of banana and bubblegum. Light bready malt flavor balanced by floral and citrus hops. Fizzy carbonation and a lingering bitter finish. Nicely balanced and drinkable, with just a hint of the 9% alcohol.

Blonde hazy. A little exotic. Bitter . Aromatic. Complexe range of flavor. Some banana, apricot , ananas , grapefruit. Different taste in a classic belgian style.

Hazy golden coloured beer with a white head. Yeasty aroma, flavour is medium sweet and yeasty. (Bottle 33cl)
