Bottle. Cloudy yellow/orange color. Aroma is Belgian yeast, a little banana and some nice hop scent in the background. Flavor is malt, yeast and a good hoppy kick. This seemed hop forward for a Belgian, but was nice. Nothing spectacular though.

This is an ok triple. Big foamy head. Light spice, grassy, and malty flavor. Finishes crisp and dry.

330 mL bottle from LCBO gift pack. Yellow-gold with thick creamy head. The only aroma that stands out is alcohol. Taste is bitter, then sweet, then, as the ad says, a "hoppy dry long finish" (sic). Sticks to your tongue. Some banana, some yeast, some citrus, lots of alcohol. Very heavily carbonated. Lots going on, and none of it is subtle.

Not much of an aroma.Some citrus but very faint. Big head that disappears quickly. Pale golden color with alot of carbonation. This is perfect for my wife because there isnt alot to it.

11.2 oz bottle. Pours a dirty gold with thick white head that dissipates quickly. High carbonation does not take away from the sweetness. Quite sweet and spicy and I can taste those bananas. Taste gives way to a nice warm finish. Toward the end of the bottle however I’m starting to notice the sourness.

Horrid cloudy yellow colour with a huge head, mild floral hop aroma, fresh but weak. It has a very soft malt flavour, and an off hop presence. Little bit of citric cleanliness but overall lacks character.

Sub par tripel by my standars, but still a good beer. Aroma is strong yeast, with a bit of sugar. Flavor is bready, typical for a belgian, with alot of very sharp carbonation.

At least this label looks like a stained glass window. i get that. still don't quite understand the Double Bornem's label. anyways...big head on this one. the flavor seems a bit off. but it does have (as the description promises) "a hoppy dry long finish."
