Boelens Klokbier Tripel

33 cL bottle at DHVL Gardenparty and Beerfestival 2009. Pours hazy yellow to orange with a small white head. Aroma is cascade hops, citrusy, grapefruity and mild yeasty note. Smooth yeasty, light grapefruity and flavourful hoppy. Bitter and grapefruity/passionfruity flavoured finish.

Bottle. Hazy orange gold with a thin head. Aromas are candy sugar with caramel, ripe pear and citrus. Spicy with bready yeast. Flavours are sweet biscuit malts with spices oranges and yeast. Dry with honey sweetness. Citrus towards the finish. Soft on the palate. Decent.

(Bottled, BBE2011) Hazy golden-orange with a medium, foamy and quickly descending head. Aroma is very lime-lemony-spicy with some pale maltiness and wheaty notes. Flavor is pale-malty and sweetish-fruity, with wheaty-sourish notes, lime, spices, and some grassy hops. Medium body, slightly foamy but reasonably soft carbonation. I liked the malt profile, it reminded me a bit of Triple Karmeliet. Too much has been poured in from the spice rack, though, making the beer somewhat dish-washing-liquidy. Should be listed as Tripel here, IMO.

Bottle. Hazy orange with a medium head. Orange zest and hints of herbs in the nose. Spicy, yeasty, somewhat herbal flavours. On the sweet side. Fizzy. Quite original, even if a bit too sweet and spicy.

Bottle @ Heeren Van Liedekercke, Denderleeuw. Pours a slightly hazy orange color with a small white head. Has a sweet malty spicy and slightly yeasty aroma. Sweet malty yeasty spicy flavor. Has a warming sweetish malty spicy finish.

Bottle. Vibrant golden orange beer with a fruity and sweetly spiced aroma. The flavour is also fruity and sweetly spiced with a lightly bitter finish. Overall a very drinkable sweetish and fruity Belgian ale.

Bottled. Pale yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, mild yeast and also some earthy notes. Flavour is citrus, some yeast, earth and quite much spicy notes as well.

Bottled (at Chriso, BBE 2011, bottle from GBBF). As "Tripel Klok". Hazy yellow color, small white head. Citrusy, coriander aroma in the nose. A bit sour, mango fruity, some yeast, cardboard. Kind of unbalanced mix of spices, sour notes and sweetness.
