lovemyipas (420), sw burbs, Illinois, USA Apr 14, 2008 pours a cloudy really dark yellow with a little orange tint to it, and a 11/2 finger bubbly off white head that disappears quickly. aroma is Belgian yeast, pineapple, and melon. also has a little lemon wheat to it. has a light to medium body with minimal lacing and good carbonation. flavor is the same as aroma. the Belgian yeast stays on the tongue for a bit and altogether not bad. also the 9% abv is well hidden.
Blom (605), Odense, Denmark Aug 19, 2008 Orange with a grey head. Orange-like aroma combined with yeast. Sweet flavours dominated by sugar, peach, pepper and yeast. It’s refreshing and powerful. A nice tripel. Sparky27 (498), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Aug 18, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a hazy honey color with one finger creamy head. Nose is cloves, yeast and fruit bubblegum. Taste is tangy citrus, spicy Belgian yeast and a souring finish that fades into sweet fruits again. Medium mouth feel. An easier drinker but quite warming at 9%. Shane087 (23), Jacksonville, Florida, USA Aug 18, 2008 Golden wheat color with little head. Very malty and bitter. Strong flavor of cloves and coriander. Velvety feel on the tongue. Alcohol is slightly noticable. Taste definitely improved as it warmed. Lord_Corkscrew (535), Ronco Scrivia (GE), Italy Aug 16, 2008 Sorpresissimo da questo prodotto Unibroue, comperato in una botteghella di rue des Abbesses e bevuto la sera di fronte alle previsioni meteo del televideo. Sorpreso perché lo trovo rinfrescante, come una buona birra di frumento, e allo stesso tempo caloroso come una tripel (anche se non tradirebbe mai il suo tenore alcolico). Insomma, questa birra mi ha dato una buona impressione, nonostante la sua forse eccessiva dolcezza (ma diamine, è pur sempre - o vorrebbe essere - una tripel!) CaryTheDude (157), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Aug 16, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Malty as hell. Not quite sure what to make of it. Wheat beer tendencies for sure. Definitely had better beers from Unibroue. The triple fermentation is impressive, but there’s something weird going on here that doesn’t agree, aight?
