75 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow to orange with a white head. Aroma is light spiced, mild fruity note and little malty accent. Flavour is mild malty and spiced towards wheaty - but also with a very special rubbery note - I guess the yeast commited suicide...Ends spiced and mild malty, continued slight rubbery note.

The cork comes off with a loud POP! It reads 2007. Pours a fully clouded orange with a nice off white head. Looks just beautiful. Nose is a consistent yeasty funk. Flavor is very nice. Very nice indeed. Nice full funk with a mild sugar tone that is not very visible. Mostly it is the yeast just dancing in your mouth. Very robust. Very hearty. Feel has a high carbonation that is almost a bit attacking on the tongue. Definitely worth trying.

Sampled blind at "Better Know a Style: Abbey Tripel" tasting. Slightly hazy orange with decent white head. Spicy, orange, oak, light fruit. Fruity flavor with orange, spicy, saison-like, fresher, subdued alc. Well carbonated, medium to light in body. So good, maybe saison spice and subdued alc.

Nice little tripel. Murky gold with a yeasty Belgian nose. Flavor is sweet malt with orange and bready tones.Lightly dry finish. Pretty tasty.

Pours cloudy blonde with an off white head. The aroma is musky and sweet. The taste has lots of yeast and finishes with some bitterness. It seems to bounce back and forth with the aroma and taste without settling into a good balance.

750 ml bottle

Pours hazy yellow with an attractive white head. Spicy, lemon-and-orange-peel aroma, coconut, yeasty pushing toward saison territory but not reaching it. The flavor is somewhat sour, again with abundant saison-like notes (but not as good as a good saison), still well within tripel territory. Heavy medicinal alcohol detracts, the hop bite is grassy, spicy, quite nice; fairly nice mouthfeel, but with all of the standout Belgian ales, I’m not inclined to repeat the experience any time soon.

Appearance: golden color. Medium head, airy and white. Aroma: grains; medium and lasting hop’s smells some mentholated and slight eucalyptus touch. Aromatic fruity reminiscences like peel-oranges, papayas and peaches. Aroma: pale malts start, light citric and herbal touches from hops and slightly mentholated touch. Fruit’s reminiscences similar to tangerines, oranges and inclusive papayas. Malts and alcoholic aftertaste. Palate: medium body and velvet texture. Medium carbonated. Very nice herbal-citric hoppy and alcoholic level.

very cloudy gold beer with small white head. Very malty aroma with a little orange lime. Tastes very skunky with a little citrus.
