Had from a 33oml bottle, pours a hazy blond bubbly head that wisps away to white lacings. Aroma, bread, floral, grass, barnyard. Crisp and smooth on the palate with a lovely aftertaste.

cards04 (171) - Manitoba, CANADA - FEB 11, 2012
Pours a fairly clear golden with lots of carbonation. Some grain on the nose...sweetness and a bit of booziness on the palate. All of flavors work together very well. Excellent beer.

Hazy yellow, big white head. Yeasty taste with some citrusfruits and a little sweetness. Soapy texture, good carbonation. Nice tripel.

jookos (80) - Helsinki, FINLAND - FEB 11, 2012
Tap @ 5p. Clear, golden with a slight head. Orange peel, malts, citrus liquor, flowers on the nose. Complex taste, like nose but with a floral note. Strange, a bit perfumy. Excellent tripel. Not too sharp, a bit sweet even.

(Flasche) Es hat eine glänzend, goldgelbe Farbe, es hat "Schlonz" und einen feinen weißen Schaum, der wie eine Eins steht. Das Aroma ist sehr fruchtig (irgend eine tropische Frucht) und etwas "spicy" im Hintergrund. Der Gerschmack ist typisch belgisch, etwas erdig/schwer und ein bisschen wie das Aroma. Es hat keine Bittere und ist zu stark karbonisiert. Zusammengefasst; ein gutes Frühstücksbier.

¿como puede ser que haya gente que aún no la ha probado? Increible. La mejor de su estilo.

arkurzynski (721) - West Bend, Wisconsin, USA - FEB 9, 2012
Slightly hazy pale yellow with copious white head. Baked banana bread, floral citrus, yeast, light booze. Rounded malt sweetness, nectar, banana, dough and ending with bold, but not overpowering citrus and light acidity. Absolutely no alcohol flavor. Ultra-smooth and silky from the oats. Some residual sweetness, lightly dry. World class.

Just a hint of hops and perfect full body taste. Nice creaminess which is what I like in a Tripel.
