Draught Dark orange with small orangeish head, some lace. Fruity, even cherry and strawberry aromas, coloured malts. Short malty-sweet & fruity, then bitter impression coming up, but finishing sweeter again, with noticeable alcohol. Medium bodied, less attenuation than most tripels. Sweet-fruity, but far from undeserving tripel. I rather like Emelisse beers.

Grassy aroma. Burnet caramel taste, bitter and a bit sour for a tripel. A slight taste of alcohol, but not prominent.

Slight hazy orange, small off white head. A bit sour and dusty aroma with grapes, citrus and cherries. Flavour is bitterness of hop and liquorice, subtle fruity side note.

Bottle 30cl.
Unclear murky medium yellow orange grey color with a small to average, frothy, fair lacing, mostly diminishing, off-white to white head. Aroma is moderate malty, caramel, moderate yeasty, fruity, banana. Flavor is moderate sweet and light bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20090320]

Bottled. Amber color, hazy. Flowery, somewhat perfumed aroma with pear. Sweet, alcoholic flavor, perfumed with some notes of cologne. Hints of grapes. Slightly disappointing, considering the excellent beers this brewery has produced.

Bottle, 8.5%. Weak fruity aroma. Muddy light brown colour. The flavour has a little fruit, a little spice, coriander, and some yeast. Probably better with less yeast.
