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.

Almost barley-wine in aroma with heavy maltiness to it. The flavor is tropical fruit first with dark fruit and alcohol taking over after. A bit different for the style, pretty good.

UPDATED: NOV 25, 2011 Bottle... Poured dark, murky, brownish-orange with a thick off-white head. Some citrus, warming alcohol and loads of yeast spice and floral qualities. Fruity, estery, apple juice-like, and mild funk (especially towards the end). Bananas, cloves, burnt sugars, caramel malts. Top notch tripel.

Bottle, bottle marked ‘Best Before B-6-2013, drank from a tulip, had a orange-amber pour and gave a white bubbled head, this drink left lots of lacing on the sides of the glass and there was sediment in the bottle, there were aromas of flowers, pale malt and candy sweetness with lemon citrus, flavors were light peaches with a peach sourness, pale malt, some fruit sweetness, lemon and orange citrus along with bitterness at the finish, and some alcohol warmth, there was a little alcohol flavor, this beer had a less than medium mouth feel with light carbonation, a nice sipper of a drink.

Bottle 2011 edition pours orange with white head. The aromas are bready, banana, and funk. Tastes are dark fruit, banana, grain, alcohol, some spice. Very boozy and warming, perfect for winter. Overall, a very tasty and powerful beer.

UPDATED: DEC 11, 2011 This one was pretty good. Fairly similar to the Scaldis Noel, a bit chunky with a blonde, amber color. A touch of spice and a little acidic. It’s good, but it doesn’t go with food well. Drink by itself, other than that, go for it!
