4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 16/20
Rerate; I had this one last christmas and I was quite impressed by the superb palate, which is better than the dubbel. Furthermore; fruity and spicy nose. Golden yellowish, cloudy colour, lasting head. Typical tripel taste; spices. Spicy mouthfilling aftertaste. Great!
4.3 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Spicy, fruity nose with some banana, hazy golden body with suspended yeast, big head. Soft, fruity body with spice; noticeable alcohol in the finish. The alcohol presence knocks the score down a bit, but this is very good.
4.5 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Beautiful gold color. Yeasty, toasty, spicy nose. Shows up Westvleteren 12 that I had before it with it’s yeasty folds of citrus and cheese (camembert, brie) on the bright side and spicy and tobacco on the other. Like Affligem but much brighter. A top 3 or 5...
4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
Creamy white head. Brilliant golden-yellow colour avec sediment. Light fruity/yeasty aroma. Alcohol is slightly apparent at the finish. More full bodied and not nearly as dry as Chimay Blanche.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 18/20
UPDATED: FEB 1, 2003 Pours a very cloudy, pale yellow color with chunks of yeast floating around. Has a very big white head and leaves a good lacing effect. Strong aroma of hops and spices. Starts out sweet, has some hop flavor in the middle, and finishes sweet with a slight hop twang. The first couple of sips have a warming alcohol effect. Great beer.

To be honest it doesn’t rate highly on the Trappist Scale but still beats most beers hands down.

Nothing wrong with this tripel. Hits it right on the head

i´ve only recently come around to liking westmalle. i probably prefer the double, but this feels like a real indulgence, so rich

for evaluation of this grand beer, one sould consider the 75cl. version. not only is the beer - oxigen rate different, this trippel is also selected from the best casks in the brewery.
it tasts softer and is more agreeable
i like the small bottles too, anyway

Bottle. A day for celebration, so why not have a Westmalle Tripel! A big white foamy head on a cloudy yellow/orange body. What I enjoy about this Tripel is everything it does not do. A lot of Tripels just overwhelm the senses and make it hard to drink. The nose has orange, clove, citrus, and grass. A nice smooth flavor. The best Tripel I have had.
