Maris (465) - Canberra, AUSTRALIA - DEC 21, 2011
From a 330ml bottle on 22/12/2011. Pours a cloudy golden orange with a medium head. Has a slight fruity aroma, with a touch of spice. The taste is dominated by sweet fruit, particularly peach and apricot, followed by a mild alcohol tinged bitterness. Actually quite subtle for 8%. Quite nice.

boFNjackson (2705) - Portland, Oregon, USA - DEC 10, 2011
759ml Bottle... A rich amber/burnt orange pour with a moderate beige head. Nicely drying on the palate, noticeable esters and yeast spices. Some danky tones with banana fruits, citrus, tropical fruits mixed with hearty black pepper-spice, and malted barley sweetness that hinted towards honey Cheerios.

0,75 L Bottle work cork. Pours down clear orange colour with a creamy, slightly tanned head. Aroma of spring fruits and yeast. Some honey detected in flavour. Palate is subtle and round. Really well balanced, soft tripel with some raisins in flavour. Great tripel, easy drinkable.

Boystout (1000) - Chisinau, MOLDOVA - DEC 6, 2011
Трипель, наряду с биттером и стаутом является одним из моих самых любимых стилей, а «Ла Трапп Трипель» - достойным его представителем. Состав: вода, ячменный солод, хмель, дрожжи, кориандр. Янтарно-оранжевый цвет, высокая плотная пена, персиково-дрожжевой аромат и пряный, алкогольно-карамельный букет. Достаточно плотное, солидное вечернее пиво. Кориандр, кстати, почти не просматривается в букете.

330ml bottle from Cracked Kettle

Pours orange with a light foamy head. Aroma has notes of spices and fruits. Taste is quite fruity and spicy with malty notes. Finish is warming and spicy. Okay, quite well balanced tripel.
