Flaska från SB. Mörkt gyllenfärgad, klar vätska, vitt medelhögt skum som lämnar mycket rester på glaset. Typisk trippeldoft med skumgodis, jäst, mogna äpplen, marsipan och en liten antydan till nyskördad hö. Smaken är beskare än man väntar sig och här märks humlen mycket mer, men främst i form av en stram ren beska som balanserar ölet fint. Lite åt Chimay-vithållet men några snäpp beskare. riktigt gott och främst då doften som är fantastisk, särskilt när temperaturen stigit lite.

Thick hazy colour. Aroma and, to a slightly lesser degree taste, really delivers on the promise of the marriage of the two stated beer styles.

Cloudy amber with a huge white head. Spicy and fruity tones. Malt, fruit, spices and bitterness. Full body with a long bitter finish. Very complex !

Slightly hazy orange/ golden with a persistent white head. Aroma is peaches, ripe orange with some flowery notes. Flavor is phenollic, some citrus and a strange salty finish with a salty/ bitter aftertaste. Medium to full palate, alcohol very well hiden, just a tad of astringency. I don’t know if I get these strange Green Flash beers..

Hazy orange with a nice white head. Some floaties in it. Aroma: spicy, sweet fruits, some belgian notes (banana, esters), don’t get as much hops as I thought I would but they are present. Taste: medium bitterness with grapefruit and pine at the back, also has the typical triple taste with sweet banana, spices and bisquit, there is also a boozy prescence. You can def. taste the tripel component aswell as the hoppy component. I donät think the flavours blend and make on brew but instead it feels like drinking two seperate beers at the same time. Must confessed my palate being alittle confused by this one...

Bottle from Systembolaget. Pours cloudy orange/light amber with a medium sized white head. First the hops hit the nostrils with orange peel, pineapple, citrus, then the overnotes of belgian yeast kicks in. Smooth, taste starts of as a belgian triple and finishes as an american IPA, would say that the belgian character dominates throughout. The dry bitterness that kicks in is hesitating at first but kicks in after a while. Nice brew!

Ljust grumlig med högt skum som försvinner efter någon minut och lägger sig som en hinna. Jästig aroma, rätt söt med lite hint av alkoholen.

Pleasent and surpringsingly tasty for an Ale. Malty, almost syrupy malt with deep orange or clementine sweetness and a well balanced bitter finish. Great stuff!

Flaska från Systembolaget (Tack Nordstan - juste utbud). Vilken hybrid- en belgisk quad som gifter sig med en amerikansk IPA - och Resultatet: Suverän!! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
