3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark golden colour with a large white head. Sweet yeasty, grainy, fruity aroma. Taste is sweet, sugary, light bitter finish. Not too tripel like, but as tripel isn’t my favourite belgian style, I quite like this.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Slightly reddish orange pour with little head. Slight sweet smell with fruit, maybe apple. Slight alcohol taste. Much higher carbonation then the other DeKoninck I had. The DeKoninck hops taste in all their beers was weaker in this one.

Strong and spicy flavor. Amber colored body with a very small and not so long lastng head. Nice beer!
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Poured slightly cloudy amber color with nice foamy off-white head. Smells of caramel and a little bit of yeast. Hints of sweetness and yeast with some hoppy bitterness.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle, 8%. Clear copper colour, small head. Weak fruity and yeasty aroma. The flavour is a little sweet and quite peppery in good balance. Also fruity with a slightly yeasty aftertaste. Quite nice, actually.
