BlackDonald (1040), North Carolina, USA Apr 21, 2008 For my money tripels don’t get any better than this. Very robust in the nose and on the palate, but still quite creamy with just enough effervescence. The fruit that comes across in this, lots of rich honeysuckle, pears, and peaches, lemon zest, with some herbal grassy hoppiness that kind of bitters out the finish. Lovely.
ckau (11), north east, Maryland, USA Sep 4, 2008 Good beer with nice thick lacy white head, decent retention. Clear golden yellow color with consistent carbonation. flavors of clove banana with a punch of alcohol at the finish. Refreshing drink for a high gravity beer evilsoc (148), Wales Sep 3, 2008 Vibrant orange gold with big white fluffy head. So much fruit in the aroma. Vanilla definitley there, sweet malts. Dusty hops. Such a full mouthfeel. Sweetness first with biscuit and summer fruits, pithy, honey. drying out quickly with a crisp green lingering bitterness. Alcohol shows up briefly. Cracking. Goba (43), Brazil Sep 1, 2008 I love strong belgian beers! Damasc in the aroma, along with orange peel already got me going. The colour was quite nice, some opaque golden to orange. The carbonation, though, didn’t got me up. The foam was nicely white with little beige on it. And the flavor, mamma mia, all those fruits, citrics, little banana, the wheat esters, the oat esters, the oat, and the sweet barley touch. That beer made my day! gameface23 (89), Haverhill, Massachusetts, USA Aug 31, 2008 Pours a clear golden with a fizzy white head. Aroma is sweet and yeasty. Champagne mouthfeel that tastes of belgian spices with floral notes. LooseCannon (660), Norfolk, Virginia, USA Aug 31, 2008 750ml bottle. Pours clear golden in color with full foamy white head. Aroma sweet, yeasty and spicey. Taste sweet, malty and yeasty with dry finish.
