Jan 20, 2009 Bottle (330ml). Poured hazy golden orange with a small, sticky, off-white head which was average lasting. Aroma was of ripe banana’s with cloves, orange zest, cinnamon bread, coriander and some white pepper. Flavor was of sweet bready malts with tangy orange citrus, lemon zest, dry pears, juicy pineapple, hints of banana, light notes of cloves and a spicy finish of coriander. Medium bodied with soft carbonation, a dry/spicy mouthfeel and a great finish. Very good balance of flavors with well a hidden alcohol content.

Jan 4, 2009 From bottle at De Pikardijn, St-Lievens-Houtem. Hazy,deep golden with a steady off-white head. Yeasty and hoppy nose followed by some sweet maltiness. Overall quite bitter. There is no hiding craftmanship.

Dec 23, 2008 One of my favorites. When young, it is brilliantly hoppy with perfect malt balance, light ad crisp and exciting. Three years of aging lightens the hops and brings out brilliant fruity, winey complexity and smoothness. Absolutely great.

Dec 23, 2008 Pours a pale golden color with a pretty good sized well lasting whtie head. Cloudy with some small particles present. Pretty impressive lacing. Floral nose. Taste is very floral, with some citrus and finishing with a fairly strong hop presense.

Dec 21, 2008 Had this tonight with some lovely goose cooked by my dear friend Brent. Wow, it paired wonderfully. I had always thought this was closer to a saison or golden ale rather than a tripel. In any case, a very enjoyable and smooth belgian beverage. There is something about authentic Belgians that just cannot be matched by their American counterparts.

Dec 16, 2008 Very strongly carbonated and champagne-like. Attractive golden pour with spritzy white head. The nose is strongly fruity. The flavor is dominated by the Belgian fruity yeast esters. This beer pairs very well with seafood.
