COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
La CH’TI Triple est une bière blonde puissante, aux arômes riches et authentiques. Ses qualités ont été récompensées par la médaille d’Or lors de la Sélection Mondiale de la bière en 2004 à Bruxelles et par la médaille d’Argent lors du Concours Général Agricole de Paris en 2004. Afin de profiter de toute sa saveur, nous vous conseillons de la tenir au frais et de la déguster à une température de +/- 8 °C dans son verre préalablement rincé et non essuyé.

bierkoning (8099) - La Tropica, NETHERLANDS - APR 7, 2003
Sweet apple aroma and flavor. Very grainy and fruity, the alcohol is not noticed. Sticky. Not to be compared with a real triple.

I already knew the French were not very good in brewing, but this cannot be called an "abbey tripel". It's a disgrace for all those quality triples, which are available around the globe. This is definitely more like a cheap pilsener. Hoppy and a bit sweet. Watery. Like the Fischer, another example of a french masterpiece ;-)

skortila (4160) - Baarn, NETHERLANDS - MAR 4, 2003
Hoppy sweet aroma, much like a pilsener. The beer looks like a pilsener, smells like a pilsener and tastes like a pilsener; Hoppy. But a bit more sweeter than a pilsener. For a pilsener it's okay.

RichardGretton (3759) - Leicestershire, ENGLAND - JAN 22, 2003
Appearance of a belgian blonde beer. The aroma and flavour is sickly sweet. A struggle to drink in quantity owing to its pudding drink nature.

leaparsons (6323) - Leicester, Leicestershire, ENGLAND - DEC 29, 2002
Not much to say about this beer. This is a pretty mediocre tripel that lacks any great flavour or character even considering its alcohol hit. Disappointing.

fiulijn (10383) - Como, ITALY - NOV 16, 2002
Golden color. Some malt, hop and cork in the nose (it’s a 750ml bottle, corked). Sweet, good body strength, some malt, some cork. Not impressive.
