KimJohansen (10337) - Copenhagen V, DENMARK - JAN 7, 2008
Hazy golden with huge lasting head. Orange peel, yeast and flowers dominates the aroma. Flavor is sweet and yeasty with malt and spicy notes. Somewhat perfurmy. Alcohol is well hidden and it ends dry

fiulijn (10000) - Como, ITALY - MAR 15, 2006
Cloudy light amber color; thick head. The aroma is classic for a Tripel, malty and spicy (coriander); and milk chocolate. Same for the taste: good malt and very strong spicy character (coriander), dry. With a strong bitterness in the late taste and final. Solid.

harrisoni (9609) - Ashford, Kent, ENGLAND - AUG 7, 2005
UPDATED: APR 18, 2006 GBBF 2005. Cloudy banana flesh colour. Medicinal hop aroma with bugglegumy banana. Good weiss one of my favourites from this festival. Re-rate. Sorry why did I say that this was a weiss? This is an excellent tripel. I’ve enjoyed the 3 de graal beers. they have that something special. This has some tangy tangerine/orange zest with yeast and hops on nose. Syrupy orange zest in mouth before attack of hops. Good beer

TBone (9096) - Pori, FINLAND - SEP 30, 2010
Bottled 330ml (Beer Planet, BB 06/2011)
Hazy yellow color, huge cloudy white head, very Duvel-like outlook. Aroma is hoppy spicey with citrus fruityness and some more mellow fruits. Medium-bodied. Some alcoholic bitterness, otherwise quite sweet fruity and spicey flavor: elderberry, ginger, coriander then peach, lemon. Hoppy aftertaste. Interesting spicey tripel, but nothing anything I would drink in quantities.
