On tap at the 2011 Max’s Belgian Fest: Pours a clear pale golden with a clingy-lacing white head. Has a lightly sweet pale malty nose with a light fruity and clove spice complexity. Starts with good fullness and chewy light biscuity complexity with some mild strawberry candy notes before a drier earthy biscuity finish with some lager yeasty character. A pretty unique and enjoyable brew.

Bottle at netwerk cultural centre in aalst. I seemed to like this a lot more than most people here. Very nice golden color with a perfect creamy head.
Admittetly, not a very complex aroma, very strong, fruity. And pleasant aftertaste, malty but doesn’t linger for too long. Very nice tripel.

Good, fine bubbled light-yellowish head over veiled orange-ochre beer. Perfumed-creamy nose, as something for the skin based on avocado, lightly toasted porridge and yeast. Lightly citrussy & toasty, quite dry flavour, near absence of restsugars, but all the same honeyimpression warming up. Yeasty & fruity finish. Dry, faintly spritzy, seems well-attenuated, slick. Good tripel, quite drinkable.
