Bottle. Hazy golden / yellow colour, head was pretty big. Grassy / spicy / alcohol aroma with malt / citrus / slight hoppy taste. Basic but enjoyable.

Sep 1, 2008 A golden ale with a thick creamy white head. In aroma, a nice classy coriander and curacao, with light alcohol. In mouth, a warming sweet malt with more bubblegum, and curacao , very classy. Medium bodied. BB 30-06-07 Bottle bought at Supersol, Vall d’Hebron, and tasted mid Nov. 2006.

Aug 28, 2008 [Bottle from Sainsbury’s, Reading] I mus admit, I only chose this beer bedause Sainsbury’s were selling it off at half price - just 73p. Pours a mid-gold with a moderate, lasting head, which left lots of lacing on the glass. Smells pleasantly of sweet malt and honey. Prickly carbonation. Tastes initially of malt, with some pineapple and lemon. Some grass comes through, followed disconcertingly by some honey roast ham, which reminded me of Leffe Blond. More grass and malt in the aftertaste, a very slight bitterness and a chalky mouthfeel. Overall impression is a rather light, but refreshing and enjoyable beer. If you like Leffe Blonde, you’ll probably enjoy this even more; in fact, I’m not sure why this is classed on here as an Abbey Tripel when the very similar Leffe Blonde is classed as a Belgian Ale...?
