COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A top-fermenting golden strong beer of 7.6% ABV, that is very firm-bodied, fruity-dry and assertive. It has a fine hop-aroma (dry-hopping is used) and a splendid apertif bitterness in palate and finish.

moelikebeer (221) - St. Paul, Minnesota, USA - DEC 5, 2008
Swingtop ceramic bottle. Slightly foggy, golden pour with a huge frothy head. Lots of large chunks of sediment. Aroma of sweet malt, slightly fruity and a touch of hops. Similar flavor, with a pretty dry finish. Pretty thin body. Not nearly as complex as other Tripels, but still a pretty tasty beer.

BMan1113VR (6145) - Los Angeles, California, USA - NOV 18, 2008
Bottle of unknown age. Pours with a huge bubbly whitee head and a hazy orange body peppered by large chunks of yeast (and this was the first, and for me, only pour). Aroma of orange marmalade, dried fruits honey and yeast. Taste is yeast and orange. Had problems after the first sip as I don’t like feeling large chunks of yeast going over my tongue and down my throat. Not appealing.

Yves (1553) - Turnhout, BELGIUM - MAY 11, 2008
Clear yellow coloured beer with medium white head. Almost no carbonation. Herby and little hoppy aroma. Berby and sprnkling palate. Ending is herby and litlle hoppy.

altonbrownd (3419) - Brussels, BELGIUM - APR 28, 2008
Bottle from Cracked Kettle. Golden body. Sweet and hoppy nose. Caramel and honey taste. Quite nice. Some marsepijn, even. Sweet finish, quite sugary.

ilovedarkbeer (1864) - Abilene, Texas, USA - MAR 14, 2008
Just opened bottle. Nice ceramic bottle with swing top. Pours a honey golden color with a medium sized fizzy head. Lots of old yeast in the bottom of the bottle. Taste is dry, of caramel, some malt, and a bit of fruit. Pretty good but nothing about it stands out.
