Borresteijn (1347), Amstelveen, Netherlands Dec 24, 2008 33cl Bottle at Café de Paas. Golden colour, white head. Aroma of yeast, spice, alcohol, some sour fruits. Flavour is sweet, yeast, malts, fruits. Dry mouthfeel, a hint of sourness in there too. Reminded me of Duvel, but not nearly as good. Enjoyable though. FatguyRacer (129), Crownsville, Maryland, USA Dec 23, 2008 Bottle. Pours hazy golden yellow with a fluffy one finger head. Immediate aroma of fresh baked bread. I love that smell. Undercurrents of spice and alcohol. Dry and sweet on the palate with a stronger malt taste than I was expecting. A very nice non trappist tripple. Travlr (698), Washington, Washington DC, USA Dec 21, 2008 Straw colored with a medium white head. Aroma of caramel and light grapefruit. taste of lemon lozenges, dry, with a bitter finish. A bit on the thin side. Immy (1912), Virginia Beach, Virginia, USA Dec 14, 2008 11.2 oz stubby. Clear straw with an absolutely massive, loose bubble head that becomes somewhat rocky as it descends. If not for the massive head, it would look like a pilsener. Decent sweet tropical fruit nose. Rather light fruity flavor, alcohol is apparent. Calling this a tripel is pushing it. Meh. dpjuart (670), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 9, 2008 Pours orange with yellow hues and one finger of white head. Nose of brown sugar and citrus, caramel and apple. Dry mouth feel with caramel and bready tones, citrus notes and other bright fruits. Some brown sugar also. Tasty tripel gilvanblight (390), Windsor, Ontario, Canada Dec 5, 2008 Boozy citrusy scent coming from a hazy yellow orange pour with a very thick foamy white head. Very carbonated. Nice deep taste. Citrus, vanilla, cinamon, slightly bready and yeasty. Overall sweet. Alcohol not there in the taste but is there in the warmth. A rather nice Tripple and I love tripples. Skidds (252), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Dec 2, 2008 Pours a nice sparkling gold colour with a white head. Yeasty and slightly citrus aroma. Strong yeast flavour with a strong citrus and vanilla taste. Quite spicy and hoppy. Far from my fav tripel, but still a good one. Imperial-John (154), Mississauga, Ontario, Canada Nov 29, 2008 Golden with bubbles and white head that thins quickly. Nice flowery yeast aroma. Pleasant bubbly, yeasty bread taste. Similiar to Duvel.
