BlackDonald (1127), Boise, Idaho, USA May 11, 2008 This was really a tasty little treat. Lots of fresh citrus fruit qualities, rinds and skins and all. Rich and sweet maltiness, with just a bit of honey and caramel. mjs (1445), Helsinki, Finland May 10, 2008 (An aged bottle at Pikkulintu 2008-03-04)
Golden colour, almost clear. Fruity nose with lots of malts. Taste has got lots of malts and salty liquorice aromas. Some whisky. Chocolate. Barley wine like raisin flavours. tarjei (1741), Bryne, Norway May 9, 2008 Bottle at Ørsted Ølbar. Hazy amber/brown color, big off-white head. Aroma is fruity and sweet. Flavor is sweet, with hints of hops and yeast. Nutty finish. Great stuff! MrChopin (620), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA May 5, 2008 Nose has spicy aroma with some grassy citrus and sweetness reminiscent of bubblegum. Opaque golden color with huge white head, lacing galore. Taste has citrus coupled with some bread, alcohol, a little metal, some sweet caramel. Palate kicks with alcohol. An intense and unique tripel, if that’s what the bitch wants to be known as.
mgermani (862), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada May 4, 2008 Pours a cloudy orange with a loose foam head. Aroma of candied ginger, alcohol, light fruit. Strong alcohol, good strong tripel, very tasty, nice and fruity and malty. Good carbonation, almost creamy. An excellent, potent tripel - thanks to Boutip for the trade! joshwilfong (769), Cleveland, Ohio, USA May 4, 2008 hazy golden with tan head. flavor is tremendous with great depth. strong appearance of candy sugar and some spicyness with alcohol adding great depth. probably the best tripel i can remember having Ober (1158), Bommelerwaard, Netherlands May 4, 2008 A hazy dark yellow colored beer. It has a huge white creamy head. It stays for a while, after that it leaves a nice lace on the glass. The aroma is great, sweet, bitter and fruits, like bananas, and apple. Also some hop and yeast. The taste is great too. At first it’s sweet and bitter. The fruits taste are there, the bananas and in the back the citrus. I think it’s a great beer, at a warm sunny day and on every other day. fredandboboflo (1392), East Setauket, New York, USA Apr 26, 2008 Bottle. Aromas of generalized light-medium fruits, orange and other citrus rind, other spices, got some ginger somewhere in there. Flavor brings out the tripel bitterness, alcohol, and is perhaps spicier and less fruity than the nose. Got a little weird at times with the spices rubbing up against the alcohol, but nothing overwhelming. Overall a very nice tripel.
