(bottle) pours a hazy yellow colour with a rocky white head. aroma of powdered sugar, herbal hops and citrus. flavour is the same, with notes of pineapple and cactus juice. medium to heavy body with lively carbonation and a sweet alcoholic finish.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
33 cl bottle. A little colder than room temperature. Nice aroma of floral herbs, spicey, slightly metalic. Golden color. Huge rocky head, a lot bigger that the Dubble, although I used a tulip glass for this one. Head fades. Sweet spicey, candi sugar, yeasty herbal taste with some alcohol warmth. Lively carbonation. Very nice Triple IMO. I have always liked this beer. Thanks Grimbergen!
4.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Golden colour with a thin head, sweet malt aroma and fruity malty taste, very much like a strong version of Grimbergen Blond.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
golden beer, offwhite head. smells malty, of some fruit. in mouth bittersweet, some fruit, some alcohol,hidden spice. aftertaste bittersweet, ( more sweet than bitter), spice, some bread.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottled 33cl. It pours an almost clear golden beer with a huge head. Grainy nose which is reminiscent of apple, cork and acetone- poor. Sweet alcoholic taste. Some banana, arabic gum and glue showing up. Decent lacework. Strong carbonation. Metallic. Cloying sweet finish which is remininscent of apple and banana. I didn’t enjoy this beer.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
33cl bottle, as shown. Hazy golden yellow colour - big, fluffy white head that collapses rapidly but leaves plenty of lacing. Aroma of oranges and floral herbs, some hops. Carbonation is low, body medium, mouth feel creamy. This is a triple, like most of them are, for sweettooths. Taste is sweet orchard fruit, balanced by some acidity and spicy herbs, with the 9 % abv all too obvious in the boozy subnote. Dry, spicy finish and lingering after taste. Guaranteed too make you drunk - also, I guess, to make you happy. If you don’t like sweetish, boozy beers, steer clear of Abbey Tripels in general!
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
At vonk slijterij in zaandam, bottle 330ml, golden, big fluffy head, some spices and fruits like grapefruits, yeasty, nice one.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
33cl bottle. very light colour. Nice triple but doesn’t stand out from the crowd.
