3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 OlJuntan64 (1266) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - AUG 21, 2002
Rerate: Crystal clear gold coloured brew under an erect large snowy white medium lasting head. Less lace than previous rate. Aroma of faint ripe (last time green) fruit, wheaty malt, hops and this time the alcohol came through. Smooth but a bit too sweet, malty floral flavoured palate. Did not mask the high ABV well at all. Bitter sweet alcoholic middle and weak sweet finish. Quite different and disappointing compared to last time.
First rated August 6 2002: 3.6

UPDATED: MAR 18, 2008 2008-03-18, draught at Ris Ras, Århus, 7-4-7-3-14=35 Hazy blond color; served too cold. Pleasant Tripel, quite sweet and not spiced, with a medium body strength and alcohol warmth; correct bitterness. Strangely enough, it has a cork character too. Good but not too exciting.
2002-08-04, bottle, 7-5-8-4-16=40 Pale amber colour, generous creamy head, maintained by a fine perlage. Light malt aroma and coriander. Powerful body, pretty sweet, malty, velvety. Correct palate. It misses some stronger hop character.

Not the greatest tripel I’ve ever had, it is very mild, too mild if you ask me.
