Nov 8, 2009 750 mL bottle, split with my dad on 11/7/09. Very nice, fruity aroma. Apple juice, peach, and bubblegum scents. Wheaty and, to a lesser extent, yeasty smell. Pours a pale gold to straw color. The liquid is mostly clear with some haze. Large amount of uneven, nearly white head that is frothy with large bubbles. Sweet initial taste with a dry finish. Floral and fruity. Nice taste, but not particularly complex. A little bit of chalk or dirt in the finish. Dry aftertaste. Light to medium body. Unremarkable palate effects. A pleasant if unspectacular brew.

Nov 2, 2009 solid beer. This is very light tasting. I’m in shock that it is 7.5%. where is all the booze? Very smooth taste, go for it

Oct 28, 2009 33cl Bottle. Pours a huge airy, white head. Pale golden color, average cloudiness with lots of small yeast particles.
Aroma of fresh citruses, bread and coriander. The flavor is initially sweet and bready then gets dry, salty. Medium body,
easily drinkable texture, lively carbonation.

Oct 25, 2009 Pours a light golden color with a huge white foaming head and lots of effervesence. Nose is bread, yeast and citrus. Very creamy on the palate. Taste is slightly sweet, with notes of fresh baked bread and citrus. No bitterness on the finish, but very satisfying. A superior brew, this Abbey Tripel is a good companion to a baguette, cheese and thee.

Oct 23, 2009 33cl bottle as shown, at ’’Le Belge’’ in Offenbach. Hazy golden yellow colour, with big, creamy white head. Creamy mouthfeel, medium-bodied blonde tripel - medium to active carbonation. Yeasty and hoppy aroma, flavour is hoppy with a fruity, citrusy green banana note, dry finish, alcoholic after taste. One of the more likeable Belgian tripels, this one isn’t too sweet, quite the contrary. Well-balanced and quite sessionable - so be careful. ;=)

Oct 20, 2009 Schiuma aderente, colore biondo leggermente velato. Profumo intenso, eleganto: agrumi e crosta di pane. In bocca prevale il malto, gusto secco con note luppolate in finale.

Oct 5, 2009 ehhh, not bad. i like the brown ale much better but this stuff is no slouch. for some reason i think corsendonk has terrible smelling beer and this is no different. i get whiffs of stale bread, farms in the midwest, and 70 year old women. tastes pretty good though, a little overly floral with hints of hops and some belgian spice. ends very dry and leaves me almost confused on the actual taste. in the end, ive drank it before and im sure i will drink it again.
