| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Sep 16, 2005 This corked and caged bottled brew whose cork was marked 2-27 poured a large sized head of white colored foamy finely sized mostly diminishing bubbles that left behind a transparent orange colored carbonated body and a fair lacing. The aroma was fruity vinous doughy and malty. The mouth feel was tingly from start to finish with a medium strength vinous finish. The flavor contained notes of malty sweetness that was well balanced with some caramel. It was rather yummy. hotstuff (3183), Indiana, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 3, 2008 Bottle. Musty and yeasty aroma complete with apples and pears. Sparkling gold color. Very drinkable Trippel. I am fond of their beers so maybe that is just me. The alcohol is concealed in the at first yeast dominated flavor, that becomes fruity and somewhat dry afterwards.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 9, 2009 To celebrate my S4aD on RB while being in Bordeaux...A French Tripel (listed as biere de garde....). 25 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden orange with a huge, slowly collapsing white head. Aroma is cornish and malty, light sweet note. Sweet caramelish flavoured, light bitterness and vague spice note. Lingering sweet caramelish finish, vague metallic note. Sweet little triple, I don’t get why this is listed as Bière de Garde.
