Sep 18, 2008 So Abbey Trippel is my new favorite style. This brew is a large part of that, although there are other trippels I slightly prefer (koenigshoeven comes to mind). Anyways, fin du monde is slightly sour (citrusy) and bitter, nicely carbonated. Very smooth drinking - despite the high alcohol content. FYI, I’m convinced it’s even better from the large bottles.

Sep 17, 2008 Bottle. Quite yeasty smell, light sour and citrus. A cloudy light orange body and a small frothy white head, which is normal long lasting. The taste is heavy acidic and light bitter with a medium duration. Lively carbonation, a creamy texture and a medium body. A nice Belgian-styled beer.

Sep 14, 2008 750 ml bottle split in Chimay glass. Hazy orange with fizzy, quickly disappearing white head. Peach orange marshmallow spice yeast aroma. Sweet vanilla orange flavor, very orange, sa if there is added orange. Lingering orange spicy finish. Medium-full body, fuller than expected, medium carbo. Excellent flavor. Decent texture.

Sep 14, 2008 Very good and highly drinkable. Lightly sweet, complex taste of spices and bananas. A light peppery finish that is slightly dry. Surprisingly light bodied for a stronger beer. Perfectly carbonated. No taste of alcohol anywhere.

Sep 12, 2008 Pours a hazy orange colour with a thick white head that wears out pretty quick. Nose is very much yeasty and a little bit spicy, like bananas and cloves. Taste is fairly sweet with some very nice lemony notes, and a fair bit of the same banana kind of stuff present in the nose. Very smooth drinking, and plenty creamy. Carbonation is spot on. Not a bad beer by any stretch.

Sep 10, 2008 750 ml. bottle. Pours a nice creamy, rapidly collapsing head, pleasant pale, slightly cloudy yellow...nose rather mild, yeasty, citrus, bit of spice, especially clove...tastes of yeast, citrus, ? lemon primarily, malt sweetness, and a mildly bitter finish. A really nice subtly balanced beer. Somewhat later the empty glass smelled of heather honey, a wonderful added aroma.
