Bottle. Golden color with a huge fully lasting rocky head. Aroma is sweet of fruits, flowers and spices. Flavour is well balanced sweet and spices.

A clear orange beer with a huge off-white head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of yeast, coriander, and oranges. The flavor is sweet, very smooth, slightly spicy combined with oranges - after awhile the sweetness is almost too much, but then a pleasant dry end sets in.

25 cL bottle. Pours with lite golden head. Colour is like apple juice and taste is dominated of apples (my bottle was 2 days before the BBD - no banana taste at all) in a way that would think that this is a cider. Clearly a blonde and a strong one which one clearly tastes. A beer for zipping. Hard for me to see what should be christmascy about this one, good beer/cider though!

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2005 (Bottle 33 cl) Light golden and hazy with a huge head (Shavingfoam-style). Very fruity and extremely sweet. Bordering on nauseating. But an underlying bitterness makes it drinkable, but this is not exactly an easy access-beer. 270804

Bottled. Hazy yellowish orange colour with mediumsized white creamy head. Sweet fruity aroma with hints of wheat. Flavour fruity with sting of alcohol. Abrupt end of flavour, no finish and aftertaste. Quite non-saying Tripel.

Golden coloured. Malty, rather bitter. Last beer of a wet night...

Bottled. Clear yellow coloured with a huge white head. Aroma of fruits and spices with malty notes. Sweet flavour of fruits and spices. Nice tripel.

Best before 11/02. Clear golden with fantastic thick creamy white lasting head. Aroma of sweet malts & fruits. Thick lacings. Little vinous & sweet taste (not as much as expected though) Easy warmth & hoppiness in the end. Very nice & pleasant.. wouldnt harm anyone, though this one is 9 years old! Very enjoyable!

Blonde color, huge head. Simple aroma, honeyish, grassy. Sweetish flavor (which is good for this kind of beer), with sweet honeyish malt and some Belgian character from the yeast and hops. Pleasant.

Golden color; creamy head. Nice tripel aroma, maltier, light fruitness. Smooth taste, sweeter in the front and then drier, malty, with a delicate liquorice note at the end. Original as Christmas beer, but well brewed.

Bottle. Bready, almost pilsner-like aroma. Hint of fruit, though. Flavour is at first full, malty and yeasty, but then it turns a bit metallic. Colour is slightly cloudy yellow. Everything about this beer reminds me of pils, except the fruityness.
