jason (1620), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA Jun 25, 2007 Bottle. Pours an cloudy orange body with thin head. Aroma is of yeast, light spices. Flavor is sweet, spicey, yeasty and light earthy feel. Slightly dry. BigBen2120 (688), Derry, New Hampshire, USA May 27, 2007 750ml bottle from florian’s. Somewhat murky yellow-amber body with an inch of off-white head that persists and leaves a fair bit of lacing as i drink the beer. Smells fruity, like raisin and citrus. Tastes pithy with raisin notes and a hint at apple and spice toward the finish. On the lighter side of medium-bodied. Tasty and almost flawless, but not as good as its cousin (St. Bernardus Tripel). smhncabot (310), Cabot, Arkansas, USA May 27, 2007 pours golden with solid head that holds and laces. aroma is spicy with strong mint tones. taste brings back the spice with the same mint character that brings it to an almost medicinal state. it has a nice spice sweet bitter finish. very easy stuff and pretty good overall. drainey (231), Chicago, Illinois, USA May 27, 2007 Bottle. Cloudy light golden body with a big fizzy white head. Slightly sweet aroma with some fruity notes. Flavor is similar, light, with peaches and bananas, and a sizable amount of carbonation that calms down as it warms (yes, I admit I started it too cold). Adenila (931), Denmark May 27, 2007 Hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is wheaty and fruity with notes of different esters like raisin and mango along with some citrus and honney. Spicey flavor, but not as powerfull and complex as other tripples i’ve tasted. Its feels abit like a wheat beer, with a desceet bittersour taste and a bitter warming finish. Fresh but not too complex SamuraiArtist (292), portland, Oregon, USA May 19, 2007 Bottle: Pours a huge white foamy head. Some sweet malt aroma, a hint of sourness, citrus hops and fruity esters. Flavor is sweet and fruity on the front end with notes of phenolics and belgian spicy yeast, citrusy notes are nice, tastes saisony. Finishes dry and clean. OleR (2008), Oslo, Norway May 17, 2007 330 ml bottle. Dense and thick lasting white head. Slight unclear, orange/golden body. Inviting fruity and malty aroma; sweet citrus, tropical, honey, mild spices and a very pleasant malty sweetness. Malty flavors as well, also lots of alluring fruits, notes of yeast, toffee and spice. Soft mouthfeel. Lingering, slight bitter and fruity end. Marvellous! bleeng (587), Spring near Beersel, Texas, USA May 11, 2007 Bottle at Paix Poperinge. Pale gold with slight nose and fading head.
