May 1, 2009 750 mL bottle. Pours a pale orange golden with a large frothy white head that lasts while leaving behind good sticky lacing along the glass. The aroma is a sweet malt with coriander and clove. full bodied mouthfeel with a sweet fruit with a very tart finish. Hides the alcohol well, a very good tripel from Affligem.

Mar 25, 2009 In short: A muscular fruity Belgian blonde ale with a nice spicy touch and a strong herbal character. Very nice.
How: Bottle 330ml. Consumed relatively fresh 1 year before expiration date
The look: Clear golden body topped by a medium off-white head
In long: Intriguing nose with spicy notes (ground pepper, dry green herbs, peppermint) and dried fruits. Body is fluffy with a carbonation that is very lively, borderline aggressive. Loads of dried honey, dried tropical fruits, green apples (not tart), peppermint, candi sugar and a truckload of dry grassy hops to balance it out. Short dry bitterness with an herbal spicy finish. Alcohol a little apparent. Wow, what a tasty little surprise this was. A solid beer that is a very good example of the genre. I’d drink this three times a day. Beer is technically a vegetarian meal

Mar 15, 2009 Affligem Tripel is a tripel yes. But this dull a triple is tripel unworthy. That recipe can do better.

Feb 28, 2009 Consumed about 55. Pours effervescent with thin white head. Quite clear and looks great, but lack luster in flavor. Seems over carbed and static. Not a great palate and nothing to write home about.
