Flavor is moderate sweet and bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft and very much co2. (080408)

A hazy orange beer with a huge white head. The aroma is yeasty and spicy - especially coriander coming thru - a very Belgian nose. The flavor is sweet malty with lots of yeast and fruit, as well as light spicy notes. The end is dry spicy.

(Bottle 25 cl) Nice medium golden with a frothy head. Some yeast in the nose, but the hoppy, dry floral notes are predominant. Decent although not an outstanding Tripel. 100795

UPDATED: FEB 23, 2008 33 cL bottle, thanks to BelJohansen. Pours pale and clear yellow with a white head. Light pilsner aroma. Flavour is mellow yeasty and light spiced. Slight biting spice flavour, light caramel malt. Ends with a mild bitterness and lingering yeast mellow flavour. Nice.

Pale golden coloured, very lively. Spicy, grassy. Subtle but comlex flavours. Medium bodied, rather sweet. Low bitterness.

Bottled. Golden colour, with lively carbonation, sparkling big creamy off-white head, which takes ages to settle. Aroma is rubbery, malty and hoppy. Very boring. Flavour is malts and hops with some weak caramellish notes as well as weak honey. Sticky palate, and the carbonation tickles the tongue and throat in a nice way.

Bottle. Clear yellow coloured with a huge white head. Sweet fruity aroma with notes of spices and yeast. Fruity flavour with notes of spices and yeast.

Bottle. Clear golden colour. Big foamy head which is quite stable. Very metallic aroma. Flavour starts of with vegetable, asparagus, rurns astringent and then back to asparagus. Has a hint of fruit well hidden behind a very bad smell and taste. Warming alcohol aftertaste.
