330ml brown bottle split with gilvanblight. Poured a nice shade of glowing orange, only a light layer of foam on top, tan in colour, somwhat clingy and sticky. Strong banana aroma. Flavour is sweet with some oranges, cloves with a long finish.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from Oosters olut ja viinihuone, Helsinki. Poured hazy orange color with a nice frothy white head. Sweet malty aroma with yeast and some caramel. Flavor is sweet, similar as aroma. Not much alcohol deteced. Very drinkable and warming as well. Quite smooth.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Poured into a chalice. Hazel orange, big head, stormy carbonation, a good looker. Soft notes of hops and coriander, some malts. Taste is bread and coriander. Finish is quite alcoholic to start but then soft malts. Didn’t like the stench of alcohol all over this one, it’s the least well made of the Trappist tripels, but not that bad.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
UPDATED: APR 19, 2005 Orange in color, fuller beige head, floaties. Aroma of yeast, some spice, some pear. Pretty sweet, fuller soft and creamy body, slightly dry on the finish. Pretty tasty.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Cloudy orange, speckled appearance. Faint aroma of fruit. Very sweet body, alcohol and just a touch of hop bitterness in the finish. A dissapointing tripel, much too sweet.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cloudy dark orange-amber. Off white head. Banana & bubble gum on the nose. Medium-full, oily body. Yeasty flavour of banana & orange peel. Good maltiness but not complex. Warm, spicy finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 17/20
Light sweet, fruity aroma. Dirty orange-gold color with a hint of white head. A refreshingly light bodied triple, moderately sweet and fruity with a hint of spice.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
0.75 l bottle opened with big pop. Poured bit murky lighter orange body with big ebony head. Very nice, sweetish aroma of banana, orange, with some spicy fruits. Other component include some caramel malt and at last, typical Belgian yeast. Flavor is quite bitter, even for the tripel, but also sweet on the other hand. Fruity, as in aroma, full bodied and quite nice. Moderate carbonation. Finish is quite long, bitter. Very nice beer all in all, although I had better triples.
