An excellent belgian tripel. Great pour resulting in a thick white head. Nice spices give it a great flavor and it feels great going down. Not too sweet and strong alcohol.

earthy, cooked vegetables, citrus, chocolate, sticky, bitter, orange, frothy, rocky head, heavy cloying sweetness, medium bitterness, lightly sour, creamy, astringent,

Golden blond colour. Flavour of this tripel has great balance of grains, sweetness and spiciness. Very easy to drink and moorish.

Bottle. Lovely malt aroma, poured a clear crisp orange colour. The beer has a small head. Sweet crisp malt flavor. Good body with alcohol content not apparent. A very well made beer.

Dark brown with tall tan head. Fruity aroma with notes of raisins. Slightly bitter start and then a little fruity and smoky,.. very wel tripel. the overall rating is to low

Golden colour with a good head, fruity malt aroma, sweet malty nice warming alcohol taste, very nice.

Bottle from a Brussels supermarket. It pours a hazy dark orange colour, with a high fine white head. The aroma is grassy, with obvious Belgian hops, a fine presence of malt and a hint of honey and yeast. The taste is very well balanced: intense malty flavour, with nice hops, orange, honey and yeast (it really smells like it tastes). Full bodied and fizzy, with a medium bitter and sweet finish. A surprise, as it is not one of the best known Belgian beers. Very refreshing tripel with no alcoholic taste at all (despite being a 8,7%!).

Thin white creamy head over hazy orange-red body. Sweet bready aroma with notes of unidentifiable spice. Intense, sweet taste of cinnamon, cardamom, and coriander (I think). Aftertaste of marzipan with some bitterness and sweetness. Lingering spicy bitterness. An excellent trippel. (Why are people calling this thin and watery? I found the taste to be very strong indeed. Strange.)
