Trappist on tap Murky golden color, with a clingy white head. Boozy sweet aroma of fruits, sweet malt, some green tree character. Oaky and boozy on the palate, with an oily warm palate. Nice bitey aftertaste.

Bottle from a variety pack. Pours a light golden color with a medum head.Aroma of over ripe fruits, spices and light yeast. Taste is mild citrus, molasses, with a sweet over tone. Nice, mild, easy to drink with a thin body.Smooth finish.

Shared w/ Juart. Pours a slightly hazy golden color. Lots of effervescent carbonation. A small white head that disappears quickly but leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is a pretty heavy malty nose for a tripel. Butterscotch sweetness with just a hint of fruity esters. The flavor is much more like a tripel. Dry and fruity with a little caramel and a nice balance of bitterness. The body is pretty rich with tons of carbonation. Decent. Much better than the dubbel.

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.

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.

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.

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
