Dec 7, 2008 300 mL bottle. Pours a beautiful cloudy golden with a modest white head and some yeast particulate floaties. Nose is spice, orange peel, yeast, granny-smith apples. Initial taste shows how high the carbonation is in this tripel. Lots of yeast, bubblegum, citrus, cloves, and tropical fruit. Very smooth and creamy rather than watery and acidic. Alcohol is perfectly hidden. Refreshing, not too light, and awesome!

Dec 2, 2008 Abundance of spices, citrus, and yeast in the aroma and flavor. Pour great with a thick white head. Good hop touch. A bit more alcohol and it would be almost overwhelming. Almost.

Apperance: Hazy golden orange with a ok sized head. Very nice lacing!
Aroma: Tropcial fruits, Yeast, Cloves, Citric notes. Wonderful!
Flavor: Honey, Fruit (Apple, Pears, Bananas), Spices (Pepper!), Yeast.
Palate: Carbonation is at a medium level. Very nice balance and absolutely no trace of alcohol. Very impressive!
This is a favourite that i keep on coming back to again and again. Insanely drinkable for a 9% brew. Has the typical Unibroue yeast-character but if you can’t get past that, you’re missing out! Recommended++!

Nov 29, 2008 Bottle. Aroma of spices, citrus, lots of musty yeast. Flavor the same, so much yeastiness. Definitely a good (or better) beer, but just a little too overwhelming with all the yeast for me.

Nov 28, 2008 Bottle. Pours a golden yellow with a thick white head. Aroma is sort of odd, skunky-ish, some spices (clove maybe?). Flavor of a slight yogurt sourness, mint julep, melon, and yeast. A little heavy to drink. Decent tripel though!

Nov 27, 2008 Preface: I have enjoyed this beer for years, and having requested a case from brother Jer to celebrate my second son’s birth (Michael Mark, 10lbs., 12 oz.), I revisit Unibroue’s pride with a respectful confidence....thick, pillowy four-finger head froths the in THE La Fin Du Monde tulip... body is thick, orange/peach, and sediment-filled...tracings are like rhythmic ocean waves... flavorful, bright bouquet of yeast... hops are brisk and pleasant, with a slight citric injection... medium-bodied with a full finish--minimal alcohol presence, active but not obtrusive... reminiscent of the Schneider folk’s brews--refreshingly clean, crisp, complex with clove, spruce, cinnamon, vanilla, watermelon, pear, and citrus ... palate-cleansing and complimentary to a host of foods--most notably these nachos! Cools and burns at the same time... an almost unbelieveable combination of refreshment and taste, readily causing amnesia at the thought this was ever a tripel at 9%....beautiful.
