(Bottle 65 cl) Courtesy of Degarth. Pours a hazy, golden with a tall, dense and lasting, off-white head. Aroma of fruit - banana in particular - and yeast. Medium body with fruity and yeasty flavours. The finish is distinctly bitter. Not the world’s most refined Tripel. 230407

Bottled (As Panty Peeler). Hazy orange colour, not much head. Aroma is herbal, a bit spicy as well as fruity and floral hops. Flavour is quite much the same, ending rather fruity and earthy. Alcohol gives a warming feeling while you drink.

Bottled. Muddy orange colour, very brief head. Estery pineapple aroma. Sweet and fruity with some citric acidity and strong lemonady orangey notes. Slight almondy yeast character.Too sweet for me to fully appreciate.

Bottle. Hazy golden coloured with a white head. Aroma of fruits, spices and hops. Flavour af fruits, spices and hops.

Cloudy blond color. The aroma has some spices. The flavor is quite true to style, dry, spicy (coriander), but also with a very light sourness (wrong).

Flavor: sweet malt flavor with lots of spices, fumey alcohol essence, as it warms the alcohol subsides and the body becomes very rich and malty, the spices are mellow and adds lots of complexity without being over powering, starts off good and becomes excellent, an evening’s entertainment

Rating: 3.8/5.0
Score: ***+/4

The score was calculated based upon the notes and an old scoring system.

Slightly appley, orangey. Quite sweet. Alcoholic, peppery notes and basic malts. This is straightforward, unadventurous tripel, with an accent on spices and alcohol. There are dozens of better ones, IMO.
