3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20Pretty average, typical dry yeasty Belgian tripel, more grassy than floral with some aroma undercurrents of fruits too shy to surface through the grass. Easily drinkable for its apparent 8,5%, yet didn’t feel a need to have a second. Expected more innovative candour from this one.

Bouteille 33 cl du Comptoir du Poulpe - La Roche-sur-Yon (F). Dorée un peu trouble, superbe mousse blanche légère et dessinant des dentelles, pétillement champagnisé. Nez fruité, levure, soupçon de caramel et houblon. Le goût est doux à l’attaque, immédiatement suivi d’une amertume herbacée et d’agrume. L’alcool est bien caché. Douceur latente, note de Saison, coriandre, poivre blanc, finale sèche et nette.

Pleasant aroma, taste and palate, but I’m not thrilled. [short review due to it coming from my backlog]
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Clear golden with a little foamy head. Spicy aromatic estery nose with black pepper, doughy yeast, and sweet biscuitiness. Flavor is crisp and ’golden’ with some estery funkiness, medium bitterness, peppery hops, and a dry grainy malt dusty finish.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dorata, quasi limpida con un sensibile perlage e un bel cappello di schiuma bianca. Aroma inizialmente fruttato e floreale delle classiche belgian ale belghe che vira , infine, verso le note resinose e citriche del luppolo. In bocca si presenta con una punta iniziale moderatamente dolce. Successivamente prende il sopravvento il carattere luppolato della birra. Abbastanza carbonata con un finale secco. Non mi è dispiaciuto per niente berla.

bottle @ il pretesto. It pours yellow and clear with a huge white head on top. Aroma is malt, apple and fruit. More bitter than the others belgian blonde ale. A good beer in the half way between a belgian blonde and an english special bitter. Very interesting beer... Good
