| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jan 18, 2009 Updated: Sep 14, 2009330mL bottle from Regional. Pours a slightly cloudy deep golden, with a fizzy white head forming which dissipates to a thin layer.
Weak aroma for its strength, some coriander, clove and sweet malt are there. A bit of alcohol is detectable but very little.
The flavour bites initially with a strong hop bitterness. This fades slightly and coriander, citrus and caramel fill the gap. The only hint of the 9.5% ABV is my head getting lighter with every sip. Very well hidden alcohol content. Dry finish.
This Tripel promises little on the nose, yet delivers much on the palate. Bosskie (108), Netherlands
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 17, 2009 One of my favourite tripels, subtle, refreshing and light but with interesting taste and smell development - lemon with green orange, with a subtle bitter aftertaste which reminds me a bit of tonic water. homeslice (36), , California, USA

Smells of light lemon, carmel, and light brandy. Taste is bready and light, slight hops, maple and sugar. Slight alcohol conclusion. Light carbonation. Smooth.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jan 8, 2009 Caged and Corked 750ml. I got as a gift as a thank you gift from a friend. Its been in the cellar for quite some time, and I thought hell why not crack this bad boy. Popped the cork and it went all over my shirt the table, the chair and floor. At least it smells nice. Pours yellowy orange with a bright white head. Nose is sweet, yeasty and nice. Taste is pretty nice, but overly bitter in my opinion. That said, I am admittedly not much of a triple guy. Citrus comes out some in there too. Pretty tasty trip. martinboer (118), Amsterdam, Netherlands
