Brewed by De Landtsheer
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Buggenhout, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip, Tumbler

Golden pale orange with a huge but fast dispersed head that left a thin covering, underneath it was FULL of floaties. The aroma is sweet and fruity but it tastes a bit too much just like a strong lager for me, good but had better.

Pours golden with a fluffy white head. Aroma of esters and higher alcohols, pineapple, bubble gum and peach. Taste is sweet and fruity, with notes of citrus and candy. Mouthfeel is heavy bodied with lush carbonation and some booziness.

Bottled 33cl. Ordered from www.bierzwerg.de. I like the label: reminiscent of power rangers or transformers or this kind of thing which I associate with strength, competence and reliability, but then on the other hand indicating a disaster- a strange, maybe ironical and intriguing statement. Very tall head. Hazy golden. Poor head retention. Flawless tripel-like nose. Bready, wonderful fruity (you name it!).... Fantastic drinkability. Great hop profile. Another masterpiece from Malheur.

UPDATED: AUG 12, 2006 Bottle: The body is hazy and pale orange with a medium sized white head, leaves nice lacings. Aroma of yeast, spices, orange and notes of apricot. The flavour is rather sweet with hops and coreander and some fruit. Medium to full bodied. Warm alcohol and hoppy, bitter finish. It’s very enjoyable.
