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.

Bottle. Pours a hazy golden-orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is a bit more spicy than most tripels, but I also got the usual citrus, vanilla, banana, and yeast notes as well. Taste is spicy, with the same as the aroma, detectable citrus, vanilla, banana, and yeast notes. Detectable hops on the back. Pretty much your run-of-the-mill tripel, and not as strong as I’d hoped it would be.

02/11 0.33 l bottle @ Hopdevil, Zagreb. It poured darker orange body with smaller, slightly off white head. A bit winy aroma with some dust, quite weak and nothing special. Flavor was weak in the beginning as well, but with every sip you start to get its subtle components. Well balanced between bitter, sweet and sour, some cookies are maybe the most dominant, but orange, apples, grapes or some variations are obvious as well. Finishing long smooth and pleasantly sweet, you can’t like this beer. Good work on this subtle tripel from St. Bernard!

Poured with what I would call an off-white head, that even 30 minutes late is still hanging around. Colour wise, I’ve got written down a caramel orange colour. I got a bit of a malty nose. Taste, I thought it was fairly smooth, almost light upfront with some of the bitterness of the hops coming in towards the end finishing with quick a clean citrus note.

Bottle. Pours very hazy blonde with a nice head. Nose is spicy. Palate is very well balanced. Aftertaste is short and dry bitter. Good tripel.

A bottle tasted at Hilpeä Hauki. Pale beige head. Pale hazy yellow colour. Apple in the nose. Strong taste. Quite foaming. Some coriander and grass in the nose. Also soft apple in the taste. Some hints of marzipan in the finish.

Crushed with Jakebra. Lots of fruitiness in the nose, apples and pears. Very lightly carbonated giving a awesome mouthfeel, which is also the best part of this beer. Dug it more than most other tripels I’ve had recently.

33 cL bottle. Pours hazy to murky orange with a small off-white head. Quite phenolic yeast aroma with mild spice notes. Flavour is sweet and spiced with a distinct yeast presence. Light caramel malt presence. A bit too dominant on the yeast for my liking. Ends sweet and light spiced.
