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.

thebeertourist (3981) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 23, 2007
Bottle. Hazy, orangey amber with a small head and a bit of sediment. Fruity aroma, hinting of oranges. Flavours have the typical ’t IJ trademarks; fruity and spicy with strong hints of orange zest. Good carbonation and body. Nice.

alagnak (467) - Littleton, Colorado, USA - FEB 7, 2010
Draft @ wildeman. Nose is lightly tart with loads of spicy, slightly alcoholic yeasty esters. Flavor starts with a little crystal sugar and yeast, then a punch of slightly bitter tropical fruits (mango/pineapple) and quite a dry finish for the style. High carbonation dries the flavors out a bit. A good one and interesting, though not overly remarkable.

Huubs (3) - NETHERLANDS - FEB 11, 2012 does not count
Big white fiamhead at the beginning, but it disappears within a few moments afterwhich a nice lacing stays behind. The flavor contains hops, citrus fruits, banana and some caramel. It’s a bit sparkling and refreshing, easy to drink. The aftertaste is a little watery and has some elements of fruit and yeast. Aldus Huubs. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
