Bottled: Pours a thin fine white head with a cloudy orange color. The smell of this beer was great with its full aroma of bananas balanced well with malt and other fruit. Taste very fruity with a bitter bite on the end. Good!

Quickly dissipating head, which leaves an oily looking lacing. Hazy, unfiltered orange color. Really carbonated appearance at first, but that changes as the carbonation starts to fizz out. Powerfull fruity aroma. Champagne-like... quite tart. Citrusy taste. Rather sweet. Grape taste in there, which makes you think you are drinking champagne if you don’t look at the beer too closely. Some syrupy taste in there as well. Not as dry as other tripels.

Bottle. Poured a coppery-amber color with a moderate white head that produced nice lacing. Smelled of raisins and a earthy wheat/yeast aroma. The taste was an interesting combination of the bitterness in the hops and the sweet raisin and fruity malt. Masked the high 8% alcohol content maybe a bit too well..... My favorite St. Bernardus Brew!

dark yellow/orange with an aggressive white head. good mix of spices and yeast in the nose and a taste to match, clean and good.

Light lemon aroma, fresh pear, apple, sour yeast, wheat. Perfumey floral sweetness. Wheats up front, earthy sourness builds thru mid, along with some yeast. Light sweet lemon peel and a hint of spice. The belgian funk and alchohol are subdued, very tasty. Killer silky texture on the rough + dry palate. Such a good Trip, very restrained and well balanced.
