Feb 18, 2008 Poured a hazy dark golden color with a white head. Aromas of fruity yeast. Flavor starts sweet and finishes dry with yeast and hops. Medium body with lively carbonation and a kind of prickly mouthfeel due to the carbonation. A very tasty tripel.

Feb 18, 2008 Bottle. A hazy yellow beer with a small white head. Dry hoppy aroma with hints of spices. A good balance between hops and malts in the flavor, a bit more dry and "easier" than the Westmalle Dubbel. Yeasty character through the whole experience. Bitter palate.

Feb 17, 2008 I am quite familiar with this lovely ale. It is a deep yellow with a creamy looking head.The nose is of pears, apples, and alcohol.
The taste is of earthy, bright fruity malt. The hops are enough to make this a clean finishing beer. The sweetness is not cloying. The mouthfeel is one of the best I have ever encountered. It is ultra creamy and medium bodied. I have somehow put this beer down in about thirty minutes. It took no effort. I most definitely want another one.

Feb 16, 2008 I tasted this beer before I got my account with ratebeer, so I can’t really remember all the flavors.

Feb 13, 2008 The most carbonated of all trapists I have tried, Westmalle Tripel is a good blonde ale. With a nice appearance and a very large head, this beer feels like a champagne when being drunk.

Feb 13, 2008 I was checking how many of the Top 50 Widely Distributed Beers I had rated. Lo and behold, here was another one I’d drunk many times without ticking. But come on, I don’t rate from distant memory. So I had to go out tonight and drink a new one. Well, what do you know? It’s excellent. poured golden into the goblet with a tall, white head. Pretty. Nose of oranges and spices and booze and hops. Sweetish, orange-tinged flavor rolls into a wall of bitterness, nestled around an alcoholic center. Slighty dry and bitter finish. Warming. Nice. Serious. Available as any slut, but still hot.

Feb 11, 2008 straw colored and hazy, only a slight white head. not a strong nose. flavor is tremendous with hints of candy sugar and sweet malty esters. finishes with a nice hop balance and some very nice alcoholic complexity. the only negative is it finishes with a little bit of a dry sourness. overall a great tripel, one of my favorites
