3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Solid carbonation. Sort of a peachy amber colour. No big nose, but the Belgian Ale tones are in there. Estery, fruity taste. Needs to be dryer, IMHO. Good beer!

Sweet malts and fruity aroma. Amber/orange color, large white head, good lace. Sweet, orange, malty, thick, not very hoppy. Long lasting orange finish.

Nice brew. Fruity and yeasty. Very nice head and color. Actually qutie sweet in the aftertaste.

Yeasty and orangy nose. Deep orange colour with a decent white head. Yeast and orange taste a bit thin compared to the Belgium classics that this is trying to emulate. Still its a good beer.

Bottle conditioned. Amber coloured, darker than most triples with a moderate thin white head, good condition and lots of yeast chunks in suspension. Complex aromas of alcohol, oranges, caramel, malt and a strangly sugary homebrew note that is explained on the label (but only in German) by the inclusion of cane sugar in the recipe. Label also mentions coriander but this is less apparent. Bready yeast and toffee malt dominate the mouth and the finish is spicy, malty and slightly bitter with an alcoholic tingle.

Wow, I thought I’d had this one already. Oh well. Nice fruity aroma (orange blossom), big moderate head on weakish orange/amber body. Slightly thin but good flavors of fruit. Nice lingering finish of tannins and caramel. Quite good fora "value" beer such as this (I’ve seen it quite cheap in some beer stores).

Nice, but not too strong on any flavor. Some hints of citrus and a sweet finish.

Sweet aroma. Grain, honey, floral notes, a bit of bubblegum esters. Astringent yeast notes. Dark golden amber cloudy with frohy off-white lacing head. Heavy body with medium carbonation. Starts with sugary grainy sweetness, bubblegum and floral notes, mild yeast presence. Light funky sweet finish with dry yeastiness and no bitterness. Sweet after, though not cloying. Nice tripel.
