Flying Dog Kerberos Tripel

Bottle (12oz). Pours a cloudy yellow-gold with tons of tiny sediment and a small diminishing frothy white head. Aroma, which is a bit mild for a Tripel, is sugary sweet, fruity and yeasty along with a hint of floral hops and some alcohol -- it’s not bad, just mild. Flavour starts sugary sweet and alcoholic -- which I’m not crazy about -- followed by fruit and some light hops in the finish. Needs more carbonation. Average bodied. Just O.K.

From Voldby, DK. Bottled, 230209. Golden with small head. Aroma of yeasty fruit and malt. Flavor is alcoholic with caramel and fruit.

12oz bottle. Thick orange-tan color with no real head. No solid carbonation in the mouthfeel either. Sweet sugary aroma. The taste is sweet with faint hint of sourness. Pretty odd interpretation really, but not entirely unenjoyable. A tad too astringent, hops perhaps. Sub-par for the style all the way, but a decent brew nonetheless.

7oz bottle. $13.99 Mix Pack sampler from Julio’s Liquors. Very little head. Pours clear. Sweet and yeasty. Not bad but definitely better choices out there for this style.

Wonderful yeasty quality expected in a tripel. Much less carbonated than expected from a Belgium style - perhaps it’s not bottle conditioned.

hazy light orange, no head, not even many bubbles, hint of lace. nose of malt with a hint of fruit. mostly sweet malt in the flavor with hint of dried fruit. medium bodied. although 8.5% abv, i didn’t detect it. it would have helped my rating if the alcohol was more apparent. bottle provided by cornfield.

Bottle. Pours golden and a medium white head. Strong malt aroma and deep roated, earthy notes. Taste is medium bodied, pretty sweet and malty, little bozzy.

BierKoning. Golden body with slight head. Malty nose with dark fruits and caramel notes. Sweet and malty taste. Spicy. Medium body with dry finish. Warming.
