Bottled 330 ml.The colour of Golden straw with a chunky head. Oily hop aroma, rich with promise. The beer has sweetish malt overtones then gets quite tart bitter. The strength is much in evidence. A great end o night beer.

The beer as it sets in the “Triple” glass is a ambiguous golden orange color, the head is portly in size, the color and off white, and the texture spumous, as the head decays, it leaves behind a fine covering of lace to seal off the glass. The nose is loaded with malt aromas, slightly plummish, crisp and fresh, the start is malt laden and lightly sweet. The top is middling in feel, the acidity biting, and the hops purposeful in their spicy bite, also vinous, tart and the aftertaste quite dry and long lasting.

Amber color with a medium creamy lasting head. Malty, honey, fruity aroma with alcohol coming out as it warms. A delicious fruity malt mix that is enhanced by the creamy head that last through the whole beer to give you a wonderful mouthfeel. I cant believe this was on the $0.99 discount shelf at my liquor store, one of my best best beer buys ever.

Amber colour, good head. Nice fruity aroma. The taste is delicate, with a light sourness and a good peach flavour, with some sweetness (caramel) in the aftertaste. The alcohol is well hidden. Nice tripel!

I really liked this beer. It starts and finishes with a mild sourness but manages to get malty with sweet tropical fruit in the middle. Although lighter in body than many tripels I find this a refreshing change. A refreshing beer at 9%! The aroma lacks some of the typical tripel characteristics but is still present and pleasant.

Weak tripel, but not bad. Cereal, grainy nose. Weak malt body up front and a slightly dry bitter end. Lacked a typical yeast and spice characteristics of a tripel.

´Sweet and fruity nose, also yeasty. Amber body, medium rocky head. Lively carbonation. Hoppy but light.
