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.

When I got this beer it wasn’t served in the right glass. Too bad, because I think the glass is just as important as the beer in it. But anyway... the beer smells great. Soft aroma with hints of banana, yeast and fresh baked bread. The flavour is complex. Overruled by sweetness, followed with a hoppy bitterness that is really pleasant. During the experience it is nice and fresh on the tongue. I can drink dozens of these and the moderate ABV allows you to do so too. Great find

onlyrocknroll (365) - Antwerp, BELGIUM - APR 21, 2011
A very solid, well made beer. Dark for a triple, Golden, nearing brown with a fairly small head. Aroma of caramel, orange and esters with a pleasant balancing hop bitterness. Flavour is also well balanced, a little sweet with caramel and ester in the finish. Soft body and gentle carbonation. Tasty and morish.

bth122 (458) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 2, 2011
Poured a cloudy orange yellow color, with large frothy head, lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeasty mellow sugar malts. Taste was medium to medium lite sweetness. Med body, creamier texture, ave carbonation. Slightly drier finish. Typical spicing (coriander and orange) like a belgium trippel should be, but maybe a bit gentler on the spices. Smooth tasting trippel. Little bitterness at end. Not bad.

ArOma of baked apples. Pours with an inch head and leaves some lacing on the side. Taste very dry and tart. Doesn’t seem like it has nearly 8% alcohol. Nice beer for the winter.

Nice tripel beer that does the usual trick that tripels do. A nice balance of flavours.

Bottle from Utobeer Market Stall. Clear amber pour with a white head, goes nice and cloudy once you pour the rest in. Tangerine, pine, pineapple and marmalade aromas. Classic Belgian Tripel nose. Light ginger, pineapple, caramel and orange peel flavours. Dry, fruity finish. Very nice.
