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.

Super golden apple yellow color. Micro bubbles. Super huge chewy texture. Really fills up the mouth exploding. Fruity, apple, spice, cinnamon nose and flavor. Sticky on the tongue. Mostly malt and bread, toffee and caramel flavors in the middle. Fairly long finish. Not the best Triple, but solid, and a good pick up.

(Bottle 33 cl) Rather pale golden for a Tripel with a solid, rocky head. Very malty nose and malty flavours - but with only a vague bitterness in the finish. Surprisingly mild and smooth for a Tripel - a style that’s most often fairly agressive. 290705

Bottle. Golden orange colour with fine head retention. Biscuity aromas as well as freshly baked wheat bread and youghurt. Quite yeasty. The flavor is even more yeasty. Dominated by the same elements as the aroma but also with a hint of oranges. Very creamy on the palate with a slight but fitting bitterness at the end. Very nice trippel but not an outstanding one.

Bottle @ Smokeless. Hazy amber with yeast floating amidst the honey thick liquid. Smells sweet with hints of caramels and maple syrup. Nice soft mouth not astringent compared to the westmalle. Nice and smooth with a bit of fizz to finish. Definitely a worthy tripel.

75 cl Bottle. Very nice fluffy white head. Golden in colour and hints of orange and yeast, a beutiful beer with good aroma and plenty of nice taste. The taste are little complex and a little warm in the aftertaste, but overall a good beer.

750 ml silk-print corked (champagne style) brown bottle, bought in Denmark. Golden colour, slightly hazy, pours with an enormous, fluffy and lingering white head. Very nice aroma of yeast, oak, brown candy sugar, horse stable and cigars. Slightly spicy and peppery flavour with tolerable maltiness and hops, and a slight alcoholic bite. Aftertaste is okay, but does not last "forever". Not a particularly complex flavour, but a good beer all the same.

Cloudy ornage with a snowwhite head. Fruity aroma with notes of fresh green apples, lemons. Flavor is less dominated by fruits, sweeter apples, some caramel. Alcoholbite at the end. Pretty sweet overall. Very decent tripel.
