Very much a doughy aroma, along with yeastiness and bananas. Yellow with thick fluffy white head. It’s hard to imagine 9 % alcohol in this, very well hidden. Very sharp, bubbly palate, a bit hoppy in the background. Nice.

Jul 25, 2008 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.

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.

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.

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.
