COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
A golden Tripel-style ale. A little lighter in alcohol, but not in flavor, than Westmalle, and more drinkable. It matches the best of Belgium.

33cl bottle. Pour a murky orange with a substail heady. good lacing. Aroma is understated fruity. flavor is sweet and malty with a lot of fruit and spice. No alchol whatsoever. Finishes sweet wiht just a bit of warming. Not too complex, but goes down easy. I could drink a ton of this.

Savad (58) - Den Bosch, NETHERLANDS - AUG 28, 2005
Large, frothy, lasting head. Orange medium body. Heavily hopped aroma. Feels bubblegum, grape, apple and melon. Some vanilla is also felt at first. Yet, it evaporates fast. The fruity aroma is stable. Sweet, a bit acidic. Bitter finish. The same fruits are felt in the flavor as in the aroma. Becomes more sweeter while drinking.

Bottle. Pours a hazy deep golden colour with a small but nice and creamy well lasting head. Mango fruit and wheat bit sweet aroma with a bit of sourness and spices. Good mouthfeel. The flavour is yeasty and fruity with a pleasant sweetness, some spices, hops, bit of caramel and alcohol. The finish is spiced and bit sweet with a soft bitterness.

dchmela (2218) - Orlando, Florida, USA - APR 16, 2008
Thanks to Solan for suggesting this. Pours cloudy orange gold with lots of carbonation and a thick fluffy white head. Citrus, yeast, and sour aroma. Has a medium bodied, with a sour, orange citrus taste. Very smooth drinking despite the big carbonation. Finishes dry and bitter. An interesting blend of flavors, very good.
