Kasteelbier Tripel Blonde 11%

Brewed by Brouwerij Van Honsebrouck
Style: Abbey Tripel
Ingelmunster, Belgium

Golden with a slight haze and small head. Virtually no aroma: perhaps a hint of cheese. The flavour is champagne, followed by a pleasant alcoholic sweetness. A hint of bitterness in the aftertaste. Strong stuff! My opinion of this rose as I sipped it...

Amazingly average Belgian ale. Highly drinkable nothing really bad to say about it. Conversely nothing really good either.

Un petit bizou que j’ai trouvé à Ottawa. Elle est forte, mais l’alcool ne dommine pas son goût, c’est plutôt des saveurs de fromage doux, fruit seucré.

This beer is strong, but it seems to focus more on the Alcohol content than the beer itself. The aroma is of Champagne and honey. with some light tropical fruit to it. I’ve had better Belgium that has better taste yet was just as strong.

The aroma has barnyard smells with cheese and sour kraut. The appearance is golden with a light haze. The flavor is cheery with lots of alcohol and yeast. There is also some sweetness and malt too, but worst of all it has a medicinal quality. Thankfully it’s very faint. The palate is average. The aftertaste is warming and fruity. This one is a little strange.

Pillowy large white head. Hay yellow color. Beautiful cheesy yeast on the flavor. Bready nose. Alcohol is there but complimentary to the taste. A gift from a friend.

The evening "on tap" standard at ’t Cafeeke. Always poured a deep gold color with the requisite small white head. Nice yeasty notes in the nose, with a big sweet malt edge. Lotsa alcohol in the taste..more sweet malt and yeastiness. I loved this stuff. Some bitterness in the end, but not much.

Nice golden color with medium to large head. Kinda citrusy, but not overpowering.
