Light hazy, yellow blond coloured beer with lots of carbonation and a large, lasting white head. Refreshing fruity yeasty aroma. Full palate, accompanied with some sprankling. Finish is bitter yeasty, with some fruity and alcoholic touches.

Bottle, 33 cl. Clear to slighty hazy golden color, with a foamy white head that quickly fades. Aroma fruity, little spice, yeast. Medium body. Taste bit sweet, hoppy, spicy, fruits and warm mouthfeel, alcoholic. Nice bitter finish. Good tripel.

330ml bottle. Golden body with a big white head. Aroma is like castor sugar and acid. Flavor is overwhelming sweet, plain and alcohol. Lots of higher ratings on this one, maybe something wrong with by bottle or my taste? This is just a plain beer with to much sweetness and alcohol for me.

Golden with a nice head. The aroma is sweetish, flowery and slightly perfumed. The flavour is sweetish with floral notes of fruit and honey, and it’s profile is very clearly the Huyghe one. A bit too sweet.
