Bottle conditioned.
Golden shining and soft feeling in the mouth - perfectly balanced taste - full body and heart warming, a splendid aroma, tickling in the nose - hoppy dry long finish.

Flaske. Meget parfumeret lys trippel. Kæmpe skumhoved der virkelig er flot. Fin karbonation på trods a dette. Smagen er en kende for parfumeret.

Big, towering head that faded slowly. Pretty dark yellow color. But a very pedestrian tripel overall.

travita (2535) - Frisco, Texas, USA - JUL 29, 2008
Golden and clear very carbonated with a big white head. Smell is alcohol, banana, bubblegum, and yeast. Taste is weaker and a touch off, yeast and alcohol.

Pours yellow/gold with a big fluffy white head. All I can say about this on is meh. Its an off attempt at a trippel.

33cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, not complex, hazy, rocky head, nothing special

Shaftie (192) - , Florida, USA - JUL 13, 2008
Aroma was horrid, I didn’t even get a yeasty smell. Pours a light honey color with good head. A bit more body than the dubel, but still crisp. The finish has more to it as well, somewhat fruity w/ Mild hops. Not quite as refreshing as the other Bornem, attempts to be more complex but fails.

Nekronos (2627) - Xalapa, MEXICO - JUL 10, 2008
Very strong in taste and in alcohol, it was very blonde, but also a little boring. Good head which lasts forever and I liked the dizzy sensation, lets you sleep very pleasantly indeed.

esjaygee (2496) - Oak Creek, Wisconsin, USA - JUL 7, 2008
Hazy golden yellow with a large white head. Aroma of earthy hops, toasted malts and mild fruit. Taste of fruit, apple, pear, sweet malt with a mild alcohol finish though it generally hides the alcohol well. Speaking of which – it seems to hide everything else well too as it’s a bit devoid of flavor and taste. Perhaps that’s why I found it fairly cheap for a Belgian ale.
