Appearance: lovely, bright apricot color, with a mountainous, lush, pillowy cloud of lacey white foam. Pretty, and impressive. Aroma: sparkles with sugar and spice, soft but pungent and substantive, hints of citrus and other fruits. Great, buzzing hops greet the tongue, bright, tasty, fruity, dazzling! Excellent texture: a golden mouth-flooding flavor matches the golden color! Taste goes on and on, a persistent and prominent sweetness continues, and aids considerably in the flavor and overall experience. Body’s a bit on the light side, but full of yeast, and an amble helping of malt. A sparkling, tingling sensation dances on the tastebuds with each and every sip, resonating through the mouth. Light spiciness continues on the palate. Everything in this tripel is a bit light and moderate, while still stretching towards the sublime! I almost didn’t want any beer tonight, but made the commitment with this 750ml bottle. I won’t be getting up early in the morning, but it would have been worth it. A very fine abbey tripel!

Big bottle outdoors at N 3rd. Two of these babies with 4 lbs of chicken wings on a beautiful late summer evening. Great pop on opening, thick foamy lasting head, gorgeous glassware. Sweet, rich, flowery flavor - a hint of spice, just yummy.

One that has always been around and I don’t know why I’ve never rated it. Opened like a cork gun Straw colored, slightly hazy, pours with a frothy head that quickly dissapates. Aroma is yeasty very bread like, fruity like bananas mixed with dandelions. Flavor is very sweet with a tinge of bitterness on the finish.

Bottle, bought in Belgium. 330ml, served in a chalice. Wonderfully sweet and malty with some rather crude bitterness and well covered alcohol. Pleasent yeast, floral and light spice. Nice.

Bottle. Pleasant citrus nose. Hazy lemon yelow with a thick foamy head. Upfront presence of lemon and orange zest. Some alcohol and hops on a straight light malt backbone. Spicy with some black pepper, anise, candi sugar, and apple. Very quick spicy finish. Very nice and very drinkable.
