COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Deep to orange blond abbey triple winterbeer which has been lagered for 8 months on different stonefruits. Tsjeeses was born out of a 5 year brew experience regarding x-mas beer without being capable of finding a suitable name up to now. With the name came a face, a caricature actually, that was drawn on the day Urbain, our brew master and master brewer, drank too many Tsjeeses's. Every time he drinks one, he says "Tsjeeses, what a beer". Therefore the name is more an expression of stupefaction than a curse. We have had already many discussions around the pronounciation of "Tsjeeses". Very close would be that you say "cheeses" or cheese in plural.

Sample at Borefts Beer Festival 2010. Pours a hazy amber beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is weak with malt and hops with earth, grass and some pine. The flavor is malt, sweetness, alcohol and fruit. The palate is bitterness and some sweetness. Overall a good beer.

bottle thanks to zinister which he shared at our October Houston RB Tasting. Pours a clear orange with white bubbles instead of head. Nose is floral, candied fruit and cleaning solvent. Taste is perfumy and floral hops with spices. Mouthfeel is sweet and slightly bitter. Not bad.

This is the hazyest light brown beer I’ve ever seen. Fruits, yeast and spices. I will rate this one more thoroughly soon. Haha. Hoho.

11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy antique gold with a moderate off-white head that lasted through the first quarter of the glass and left partial lace. The aroma is surprisingly mild given the bottle’s description with some light fruit, some equally light malt and a hint of yeast. The flavor is malt with fruit, mild yeast, and some light herbs and spices. The finish is a bit reminiscent of a sherry and includes some mild alcohol warmth. Tripel’s are not my favorite style, so perhaps it is my own prejudices, but I was a little disappointed with this beer.
