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.

Hazy orange with a small head. Perfumed aroma: coriander and orange. Very nice flavours, being both acid and sweet with a lot of yeasty notes. I liked it a lot.

Gold pour with a bit of sediment floating in it and a short lived fizzy white head. Sweet and dry aroma with a subtle hint of fresh fruit and slight funk. Very delicate, dry and sweet flavor with some lemon, grass and green apple. There’s just a faint hint of barnyard and little bit of pepperiness. Medium thin body with tingly carbonation. A very delicate an drinkable version of a triple.

Bottle. Amber beer with a huge off-white head. Yeasty, spicy, lemony aroma. Yeasty, lemony, light spice flavor with backing malt. Medium body. Lingering yeast, spice, banana, lemon, and malt.

Bottle, as old as the Natte I recently had. Alcohol and slightly skunky grass nose, spices or rubbing alcohol here are making my eyes burn a bit just from scent. Just way too boozy. Hazy golden pour with a creamy, delicious -looking creamy white head. Sharp taste with pale malts, yeast, orange peel, clove, and other herbal spices. Dryish spicy end. Lightish oily body. Acidic. I think on another day, with a fresher sample, I’d like this one, but as is, it’s hard to give any love.

Bottle: Cloudy golden, thick white head. Aroma is funky, a bit spicy poo-ish, typical to IJ yeast, some sweetness, fruity aroma’s. Taste is fruity, a little sour, really smooth. On tap @ IJ brouwerij: Looks somewhat darker, small white head. Smells a bit less poo-ish. Taste is more sour and sweeter, more out of balance. Nevertheless, a good tripel.
