Feb 13, 2006 Bottled. Clear bright golden. Aroma of bananas and pineapple. Sweet with dense, clean mouthfeel and plenty of sugar. The alcohol burn overpowers a lot of the flavours, and a lot of the rest drowns in the sugar. It’s finished off by a warming , peppery alcoholic finish. A beer can’t be this sweet if I’m to enjoy it.

Dec 15, 2007 Pours a transparent bright golden with a frothy well-lacing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet biscuity Belgian and pale malts. Starts fairly full, complex and biscuity sweet with a nice light fruity complexity and mild coriander. Smooth, mild bitterness throughout. Very true to style and enjoyable, a nice abbey tripel.

Sep 11, 2008 Bottle... RBSG ‘08... Cloudy yellow ale with a small white head. Good retention. Spicy, herbal aroma. Full-bodied and syrupy with soft carbonation. Too sweet for me. Spicy and herbal, but not balanced enough for the style or my palate. Sweet, warm, dry finish.
