I do like this. The set of bottles I got hold of were coming up to the best before date, and so had the benefit of maturity on their side. The coriander in it had mellowed to the effect that it worked in nicely with the wild yeasts giving it a spicy, orange flavour that lasted from scent to dregs. I would go back for another of these beers a hundred times if I could.

Great body, and fruit, strong taste in order to simulate a classic trappist beer. Of course is missing a real procedure to be a real flamish abbey beer... too industrial. Please I accept comments. Salud !

Darker than usual for a Tripel. Pours a copper cloudy with thin white head. Aroma is yeasty esters and fruity ones. Flavor is slightly salty at first and in the finish. Notes of peach, apricot and figs. Pretty good.

Pours hazy golden brown with a nice thick head, bittersweet aroma with lots op hops. Subtle yeast and hops taste with some bitter fruits. Nice long aftertaste of fruits, hops and yeast.

Flaska 8 grader, Provdatum: 2009-08-19 D: Jäst, aprikos, smörkola UTS: kristallklar kopparfärg, hög fin krämig krona S: Jäst, aprikos, äppelmos, alkohol smaken är tyvärr inte så väl kamoflerad som den borde vara. (Som bartendern på Sofitel i Gent sa till mig för snart 10 år sedan: så börjar man inte med en triple man jobbar sig upp med en svagare trapist etc etc). Ta en titt på Lorden ovan - har dragit i sig en massa belgare innna han sänkte denna Triple. ES: Mediumlång OBS. bottensatsen är bitter, tappa inte upp den i glaset då blir det surt (som räven sa). Låt flaskan stå min tre dagar i kylskåpet, kan vara svårt om det är massa barn som springer i det ;-).

Sweet, rich malt flavor, body medium to heavy. Very sweet, with lots of honey. Nice, but lacks the hoppiness and balance of the best tripels.

Bottle 750 ml. Clear dark amber with a small white head. Fruity taste, sweet beer with some idea of bitterness.

A tough doughy; blonde coloured tappist beer. Probably one of the weakest trappist beers. Can detect hay and banana and cineman. The mouth feel is plesant but I expected better.
