A fairly medium triple. Husky yellow, small head. Loads of sweetness and vanilla in the aroma. Heavy and a little unbalanced palate. Vanilla is everywhere with bitterness. Very blend

Hazy light yellow with thick white head. Yeast, soap, bread, bananas in the nose. Palate is nice. Sharp at 1st, then mellows out. I taste a little vanilla and agree it is a little fruity. Really nice different stuff.

Bottle. Golden yellow. Aroma is of sweet fruits. The flavor is apple, grapes, and other nice sugary-tart fruits. Finish was a little yeasty, and the alcohol was not noticeable at all.

Pours a light golden yellow with a thick white head. Aroma is very light fruits with apples, white grapes, and even some white wine. A yeasty aroma as well. Taste is very good with light fruits comming out such as pears and white grapes. A sweet yeast and malty flavor follows with a touch of heat from the alcohol before a subtle hop profile subdues the sweetness and leaves the tounge slightly bittered. Mouth feel is decent and notable. Not bad.

bottle. Pours a cloudy light copper with a tall white head. Nose is fairly spicy with hints of pepper, coriander, apples, bread, and light banana. Flavor is pretty good, a balance between sweet smoothness and light wild, spicy notes. It has some clove and banana, similar to their La Fin du Monde, but here I get more green apples, wild grass, ripe fruits. Not bad at all, though I did prefer most of the others from Unibroue.

330ml bottle in friendly company with Skinnyviking at Pegasus, Copenhagen. Nice, slightly hazy amber body under a solid foam stand. Some fruit sediments floating around. Flowery, fruity and refreshing aroma. The flavour brings sweetness of vanilla, late fruits, honey and even candies. A yeasty bitterness in the ending ensures that the beer is not too sweet (03.08.2007).
