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.

redlight (2209) - Winter Park, Florida, USA - JUN 12, 2011
bottle from 2006. Spicy musty aroma, yeasty with cinnamon and coriander with very sweet malts and a mild funk. Pours slightly hazy orange with a thick white head. Slightly tart upfront with a sweet bread-like malts flavor, very floral with hints of mint and herbs mild earthy funk with hints of candi sugar towards the end. Highly carbonated a crisp bright finish.

2nd Brewery 07-08 Beer Road Trip with Bikesandbeer, 12/31/07 @ The Brewery with Alan Sprints. Alan was nice enough to give Kevin, Kevin’s Girlfriend Jessi a private tour and tasting on New Year’s Eve 07. Bottle form Alan’s Personal Cellar after Kevin was talking about living in the Netherlands Alan went around back and rooted out a 1996 vintage of this brew and damn it was tastey. Pours yellow bubbly with a 1 finger bubbly head. Nose had a huge yeast character. Taste was alsmost Greg like sweet, yeasty, light and all in all a damn fine Tripel.

Floback (439) - Naples, Florida, USA - AUG 5, 2007
Pours a deep murky yellow-gold with 1.5 inches of white head and opaque speckled sediment on the glass. Enticing lace. Smells of spiced pie, mandarin oranges, and barnyard sour yeast. Tastes are reminiscent of Fantome with barnyard Brettanomyces, coriander, creamy rice goulash, and dark green herbs. Zesty spice finish follows the slightly acidic sour-apple finish. Medium-full carbonation and lighter body for a tripel. Still, good.

MMR (178) - NETHERLANDS - JAN 17, 2012
Belongs to one of the best dutch beers and it is perhaps even the pride of Amsterdam beer brewery. A wonderfull Abbey Tripel with a nice soft taste to it, even reminds a bit of German Hefeweizen with the eye on it’s texture and the slight flavor of banana. Nice and soft and a real treat!

HumuloneRed (750) - Portland, Oregon, USA - NOV 4, 2006
33 cL. Bottle. It pours a medium pale color with a white head and slick lacing. The nose has fresh fruit and malt aromas. The flavor is spicy, and full of malt but also with a tart acidy finish. It has a nice dry and crisp mouthfeel. Very well done beer.
