Gypsy19 (601), California, USA Nov 2, 2009 Pours a cloudy, soupy brown with a large white head. Aroma has a lot of cream, yeast, very bready with some brown sugar. Flavor has a lot of honey, boozy and sweet. Some grasses/hay toward the end. Spritzy mouthfeel, medium viscosity. Not a very good triple, frankly. Overall, fair. TheHulk (104), Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada Oct 29, 2009 There is a hint of purfume or something artificial in the smell, it just doesn’t sit right. Hazy and consistantly carbonated, light but still nicely particulated. The taste is very similar to the smell but sweet, very nice palate and smooth tasting, a bit of an aftertaste. Cole (264), , Alberta, Canada Oct 29, 2009 Pours hazy yellow with a tall white head, Aroma is very citrus, and yeasty. With notes of wheat. The Flavour is very spicy and yeasty. Very complex and well balanced. Great Triple! Travlr (693), Washington, Washington DC, USA Oct 27, 2009 75 cl bottle at Belga Cafe beer dinner, paired with braised pork served with a Gouden Carolus Classic sauce and turnips. Light golden color, medium white head with a bit of lacing. Aroma had notes of citrus and light spice. Light bodied, decent malt in the taste, fairly well balanced with hops late and in the finish. keepersj12 (774), Sicklerville, New Jersey, USA Oct 19, 2009 Very nice amber with a big fluffy head. Aroam of sweet molasses and spices. Very nice sweet flavor of caramel, honey and sweet malt. Finishes very dry considering the sweetness.

A goody..... BeerChaser0078 (280), Melbourne, Australia Oct 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours slightly hazy golden orange with a big white fluffy head that lasts for ages. Nose is quite sweet and has a strong aroma of honey with lesser aromas of lemon, spice and caramel. Flavour is less sweet than the aroma but has a similar character with honey, citrus, caramel, yeast and mixed spice all standing out. Noticeable hops at the end as well. Quite different from a lot of tripels in that it is less sweet and has a creamier texture but is nonetheless a seriously good beer that could hold its own in any category.
