Sep 21, 2004 Bottle bought up in Belgium. As pale as Fosters Lager. However this isn’t carried through into the aroma or taste, as it’s full of flavour, spicy and hoppy, yeasty and peppery. Excellent Tripel

Sep 14, 2004 Bottle. Harsh lemon and yeast in the aroma, slight hint of it being stale. The palate was softer than the nost was suggesting. In many ways a typical triple, yeasty, peppery, appley(and also pears), with some lemony acidity, slightly dusty, spicy mouthfeel, with a little alcohol in the finish, reasonably bitter, felt a bit stale though, yet it was within the use-by date, didn’t like it as much as their others.

Sep 14, 2004 Stubby 330 ml Duvellike bottle. Light golden with huge white head. Strong lacing. Powerful aroma of fruit, nectar rich flowers, green apple peel, fresh rising yeast. Intense and quite complex flavour: fruity, especially grapefruit, a bit sour but also sweet and bitter, goodly touch of ripe melon.
Lively carbonation- watch for those beer burps! Alcohol (not too shabby at 8.5 %) nicely tucked away. An absolutely delightful triple. Positively a threat to my sobriety.

Sep 10, 2004 Updated: Sep 11, 2004Very powerful flower-hoppy, peppery-yeasty aroma even at a cold temperature. Interesting "conventional" light golden color - from a distance could pass for a light pale ale. Thick head with lacing so strong the lip marks actually stay on the glass! Flavor somewhat bland but with some intense fruity gushes, and a sweet-and-sour complexity going down. Like so many excellent Belgians the afterglow is the highlight of the brew - intensely bitter with grapefruit and slight raisin tinges ... and needless to say enough intense beerburp carbonation to cure even the worst indigestion. [Slight revision 09/11/2004: subtracted 1 point in Overall because the yeast element is slightly overprominent in the carbonation.]

Aug 29, 2004 Clear golden hue, and a towering, fantastic, huge white head. Aroma is gorgeous and spicy, with citrus and honey notes. So far, it’s a perfect profile for a tripel without even taking a taste.
And, that taste? Divine! Utterly lovely, light, buouyant, with a dazzling hop prominence at first, and a good touch of graininess in the texture. Sweet, light, and scrumptious, and the sugar starts to take prominence here in the middle.
An utterly unreproachable tripel, and a complete delight. Top-notch tripel, beautiful beer.

Aug 28, 2004 A hazy orange beer with a huge beige head. The aroma is sweet spicy with notes of coriander, gooseberries, yeast, and citrus. The flavor is very sweet, but not too much, since it is combined with loads of different spices; coriander, orangepeel, yeast, earth, and wood. In the background lies a acidity - that balances the sweetness perfectly.
