COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The aroma of this beer is agreeably gentle and is carried by a discreet bitterness while the balance between the malt and hops relies on fruity accents and a lightly fresh aftertaste.

Hazy orange with large head. Yeasty aroma with classic orange touch. Again flavor is yeasty with orange notes and finishes off bitter. Not my favorite tripel.

RblWthACoz (963) - Brooklyn, New York, USA - SEP 15, 2007
Pours a cloudy gold with a off white head that starts falling fast. Decent lacing on the way down too. Nose is sweet and a bit yeasty. Typical stuff, but just right I think. Flavor is great. Slight sweetness with a spice that bites the tip of your tongue. The sweetness stays mild and is only joined by a yeasty influence, and never overshadowed. Really a smooth mix of brewing mastery I think. A lot of carbonation on the feel. It might border on being a bit much, but I think it still feels nice on the tongue. Masterfully created and continually drinkable. An amazing brew that is taking the position of one of my favorite tripels. More old school, with nothing schnazzy or wild about it, it’s a smooth and even production and another St. Bernardus piece of art.

mgumby10 (1856) - Jupiter, Florida, USA - SEP 3, 2007
Pours a cloudy burnt orange color with a big, fluffy white head. Nice looking. Smells of thick syrupy malts, molasses, orange citrus, and mild cpice. Sweet smelling. The taste is very sweet as well, huge malt presence is right in your face. Alot of molasses and maybe some caramel flavors cover the palate. The citrus is there, but overwhelmed by malts. I liked the flavor, wasnt a typical boring abbey tripel. Solid effort.

hopscotch (7288) - Vero Beach, Florida, USA - SEP 1, 2007
Bottle... Hazy, deep golden ale with a mid-sized, fluffy, white head. Fantastic, creamy retention. Breadsy, fruity nose with minimal to no spicy phenols. Sweet, subtle flavor of sugar cookie, biscuit and wildflower honey with suitable bitterness. Medium to full-bodied with a silky mouthfeel and soft carbonation. Delicately sweet, fruity, breadsy finish.
