Bottled. Aroma has lots of citric fruitiness, some yeast. The beer has a clear, yellow-golden colour with a white, thin head. Th taste is a bit sweet, citric and yeasty. Medium bodied, some carbonation. I would say a reasonable, good triple.

Bottle...a very substandard tripel. In fact, I could find little I liked about it. Very thin in taste, watery. Not a lot of kick, either. A sour taste, very thin otherwise. Really makes one appreciate the Belgies even more.

A clear yellow/golden colored beer, with a small white head. It disappears quickly. The aroma os some fruits with yeast. The taste is dry bitter, some fruits like citrus and malts. The afteratste is bitter for a while and dry.

A hazy golden beer with a small white head that doesn’t last. A sweet aroma of light fruit, belgian yeast, and an earthy hay smell. Flavor is a bready malt with some peppery spicy notes and some yeast and alcohol. Mouthfeel is surprisingly thick and chewy, considering my above description. Hey, I am not a huge belgian fan, but you put this next to westmalle and I’m not sure I’d have a clear favorite. Massively under-rated by trappist snobs, in my opinion!
