Pours with a generous, frothy head over a hazy, pale yellow body. Faint aromas of pear, apple, lemon and yeast barely come through. Appropriate fizzy mouthfeel, but a bit watery. Flavors of spice, banana, apple and peach are a bit restrained but clean and enjoyable. Overall a "just OK" triple...a bit of a lightweight in that category.

Bouteille de 750 ml avec liège obtenue par importation privée via Bièropholie. Arôme: Forte odeur d’agrumes avec une touche de miel. Le tout est très fruité. Apparence: Couleur paille légèrement voilée. Col moyen blanc crèmeux. Densité moyenne ddes bulles. Large dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût d’agrumes, de pommes avec une légère pointe d’alcool. Long arrière goût. Palette: Corps moyen avec une texture huileuse. Forte effervescence en bouche. Arrière goût d’agrumes. J’ai été agréablement surpris par cette bière. (Rating #134)

(Bottle) Pours a lightly cloudy pale yellow body with a medium-sized white head. Aroma of humid morning in corn field and some straw. Flavor of yeast and alcohol.

Pours yellow with a huge white head. Aroma is unremarkable. The only thing I gather is a sourness. Taste is slightly of apples, but there’s that sourness in the aftertaste. Not a beer I will seek out again.

Slightly reddish hazy golden, large frothy head, high carb. Spicy, winey fruits, wheaty tartness, candyish and peppery with pear and flowers. Flavour is a little toffeish rich, spicy apricot and apples, spicy sour dryness.

Lacking in depth and body for a true tripel, even though it’s brewed at tripel strength. Unusually bitter and dry, a bit harsh but still a recognizable Belgian.

This is a lively carbonated beer unless mine was shook up while being put on the shelf. Opened the bottle and it started to bubble out like a bottle of champagne. Pour was a yellow body with big cloud like head. Aroma was of fermented fruit. Detected slight bitter spicy flavor with a somewhat dry finish. Never seen this before. On the bottom of the glass carbonation was funneling up like a volcano about to burst that big cloud head.
