GBZ59 (600) - BARCELONA (Catalonia), - JUN 7, 2012
Botella de 330ml. Copa de Vino. Resaboreada en jun´12 –a veces me gusta volver a las cervezas de mis inicios-. Color oro y apariencia ligeramente velada. Corona amplia, firme y persistente, de burbuja pequeña y textura cremosa. Aromas de levadura, malta caramelo, azúcar y caramelos, trazos de naranjas y albaricoques maduros y toques especiados. Gentil y no empalagosa entrada agridulce. Paladar suave, cremoso y afrutado con notas de toffee. Cálida y punzante sensación alcohólica en el intermedio. Cuerpo medio e intenso y carbonatación moderada. Final de suave especiado. El retrogusto muestra el carácter malteado y dulce y la fruta madura. Cerveza muy bien equilibrada. Asimilación muy agradable incluso en un día caluroso. ¡¡Guau!! 330ml bottle. Oversized glass. Reenjoyed on jun´12 –sometimes I like to come to my early stage beers- Gold color, slightly foggy appearance. Thick, firm, lasting, small bubbled crown. Creamy texture. Yeasty, caramel malt, sugar & candy aromas, hints of ripe orange & apricot , spiced hues too. Gentle no cloying sweet-bitter upfront. Smooth creamy, fruity mouthfeel. Toffee notes. Spicy & kind warming feeling in the middle. Medium & flavorful body, moderate carbonation. Smooth spiced finish. Sweet ripe fruit & sweet malty character are shown on the aftertaste. Very well balanced beer. Very pleasant drinkability even in a hot day. Wow!!!

Blonde dorée légèrement trouble, belle mousse crémeuse, bonne pétillance. Légère amertume plus qu’agréable: herbeuse et épicée, caramélisée sur la fin. Ronde et longue en bouche.

kbutler1 (1259) - Minnesota, USA - MAY 4, 2013
Bottle. Pours a slightly cloudy yellow color with a fluffy white head. Banana and a wheat like aroma in the nose. Medium/light mouthfeel. Pretty carbonated. Banana with a slight bitterness, florals, and wheat. Slightly sweet. 8% really doesn’t show.

Migmar (64) - Hohhot, CHINA - MAY 1, 2013
Hoppier than most Belgians. Caramel aroma with a hint of bread. Fruity, but dry in the end. Medium bitterness lingers long. Alcohol well-hidden. One of the best tripels that I know of.

Beyaz dolgun bir köpük, bulanık sarı-portakal bir renk,biranın bardaktaki görüntüsü çok çekici. Kokuda tatlılık hakim, tipik bir belçika tripel birası. Tadım ise önce gazlılık, ardından meyve tatları ve bitirişte hafif acılık içeriyor. Bir tripel kalsiği

Pours lively and highly carbonated. Blonde in colour with a slight haze and a copious white head that dissipates to about 1/4 inch. Some lacing, but not very much. Aroma of tropical fruit, banana, a hint of passionfruit, along with a yeasty background. Taste is bready biscuity. Not much maltiness there. Very dry finish, with a slight lingering aftertaste. Low bitterness, but noticeable in the finish. Slight alcoholic heat in the finish as well. This is a very well made beer. I’d buy it again.

Really good Tripel with a sweet candied fruit flavor. Pours well, has an appealing appearance. Remarkably smooth, finishes well with a nice hint of sour to finish. I would recommend this beer.

Bought a 330ml bottle at Bert’s Bierhuis. Has a soapy white head and is highly carbonated. Aroma of fruits, spices and bananas. Taste of citrus fruits, caramel, spices and herbs. Taste is a little sweet and the aftertaste is medium bitter. A very good Tripel.

Flaska @ Systembolaget. Ljus bärnstensfärgad grumlig vätska med högt vitt skum. Inslag av bananton, passion och maltsötma. Fyllig munkänsla. Sötma och lite beska. Lång eftersmak.
