Egon (308), Gothenburg, Sweden May 9, 2007 Bottle. Hazy yellow to orange with a white head. A much more intense fruity aroma compared to Westmalle Dubbel. Some sweet and butter. The alochol is well hidden, maybe too well.... Also a bit dry on the finish. A good belgian tripel. But don’t have too many, you have been warned :-)
lithy (149), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Sep 5, 2008 Cloudy golden orange color with a finger of very creamy white head. Spicy aroma, perfumes and dark floral notes. Sharp spice bite and very carbonated yet creamy mouthfeel. Nice sweet dry finish. nbutler11 (161), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Sep 5, 2008 Pours a light straw color from the bomber with a trim white head. Plenty of green grapes, mild yeast, and anise on the nose which carry into the flavor. More watery than I prefer, but a fine Tripel. PaulHegedus (66), Brampton, Ontario, Canada Sep 4, 2008 Bottle. This pours a light golden colour with a large, energetic head. Aromas of apple, grape, yeast, a bit of orange. Tastes strongly of alcohol, with fruit, apple, citrus. hellbilly (865), scottsdale über alles, Arizona, USA Sep 3, 2008 bb 1/22/10... pours somewhat viscous a cloudy golden color with lots of floaters evident. super long lasting airy/wispy/soapy off white head. pillowy foam coats the inside of the glass as the head eventually recedes. really yeasty aroma with notes of black pepper spiciness, canned pear/fruity?, soap/flowers and a hint of some skunk. lots of yeast in the flavor as well as pears, dried grass and herbs, mild caramel and a skunky hop finish. spiciness comes on strong toward the end as the abv% warms up the belly. medium body. nice and dry on the palate. soft airy carbonation makes it velvety and smooth... temporrari (312), Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA Sep 2, 2008 Thick white head that lasts, hazy yellow color, lots of yeast sediment in the bottle, luckily I poured it really well and left almost all of it behind. The head actually gets bigger after I pour the beer and let it sit in the glass. There is quite a bit of visible carbonation. An easy 5. Smells pretty darn good. Spicy, yeast, slightly grassy and funky, definitely some fruity stuff in there too. I’m gonna say 8. Flavor is excellent. Perhaps not a complex as the aroma. Very lively on the palate. Smooth drinking. Real good stuff.
