4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Poured a slightly hazed gold, surging white head that falls to a nice, lasting, white foam. Peppery, spicey aroma, softly malty with sweet pit fruit and a touch of citrus zest. Sweeter than I expected and rather lemony, finishing herby with hay and more spice. This is a very lovely tripel. I opened this after having to abandon an undrinkable bottle of wine, and it was a perfect mood lifter.

Serving 330 ml. Bottle. It pours a heady light gold color with a tall white head. The nose is belgian yeast, a little anise, coriander, and a touch of sugar. The flavor is a mix of yeast, a slight grain note, a touch of licorice. Very light in body with high carbonation. A very nice Tripel.

330 ml bottle from Premier Wine and Spirits (Halifax). Pours a hazy golden yellow with moderate-sized, lasting white head. Aroma is floral and yeasty with lots of fruitiness and spice. Flavour has citric and lightly tropical fruits with some spice and a sort of spruciness. Modest bitterness in finish. Alcohol is rather subtle and carbonation is fairly fine but reasonably lively. Impressive.
