bedainedebiere (274), Terrebonne, Quebec, Canada Jun 4, 2009 Enfin la SAQ sort de sa torpeur en ce qui concerne les bieres. 9,50$ pour 750 ml mais on s’en clisse (un peu) du prix s’il y a du choix! Les deux triples les mieux cotées de ce site sont en SAQ. MERCI ET BRAVO! English comments: Wow! This is a truly original, audacious and delicious beer. Citrusy bitterness and powertaste of malt. Some subtilities in the fruity dryness. And, hourra!, no spicyness and barely a trace of alchool, when cold at least. Much too easy to drink at 9%; this is dangerous! Best triple I had, even if I see this beer more like a DIPA, mainly because of the hop-madness in there. I even think it is a little under-rated, at the actual 3.94/5.0... The future is decided: I’ll buy so much of these!... sloth (1657), Ceciltucky, Co., Maryland, USA Jun 1, 2009 Large rocky head, excellent retention and lumpy lacing. Nose of grass, spices and yeast. Body is med/light with a soft carbonation. Light fruity flavors, spices, bready malts, yeast and a hint of citrus. Alc. is noticeable as it warms. Almost dry finish with a healthy bite. gnoff (3559), Göteborg, Sweden Jun 1, 2009 Updated: Sep 5, 2009First rating Draught at De Klomp, Linköping, on June 1, 2009 Shady yellow color, big fluffy white head. Spicy and alcohol scent. Spicy, malty, bitter, aclohol, citrus taste. Smooth mouthfeel, medium bitterness. 7/4/8/4/16=3.9
Rerate Bottle at a blind tasting On August 30, 2009 Hazy yellow color, fluffy white head. Acidic, citrussy scent. Spicy, acidic, alcohol taste. Tart bitter aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel, high bitterness. 7/4/7/4/15=3.7
Tried it once more on September 4, 2009. Thanks to deft! Didn’t bother rating since I knew I had it twice on ratebeer already, but had the feeling last night it was very nice and very drinkable. Although a bit too strong to drink the whole big bottle by yourself, at least if you’re doing anything else that same day... But, very nice! BVery (445), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA Jun 1, 2009 TAP: oh hell yeah, here’s a beer! Yellow cloudy pour, white foamy head. Mild nose, not much for hop bitterness on taste until very late. Malty, creamy, Belgian smell and taste, awesome! Flamojune (93), Ville de Quebec, Quebec, Canada May 30, 2009 Bonne odeur de houblon. Ressemble a une blanche lorsque verser. Gout pas tres prononcé sauf pour un peu d’ alcool. Le mariage des 3 houblons et de la triple belge est parfaitement reussi. La grande classe! TrefwoordPunk (549), Leiden, Netherlands May 28, 2009 Bottle 75 cl. Pours a cloudy, hazy yellow with a medium white head and a hoppy, spicey aroma. The flavour is really complex for a tripel, extremely hoppy with hints of yeast, spices, ripe fruits, honey, brown sugar and some alcohol. A silky mouthfeel and a very bitter finish. A great beer, highly recommended! CUJO (339), Brooklyn, New York, USA May 28, 2009 Can you say sediment?! Visible in the bottle, obviously more so after the pour. The strong hoppy aroma gives a patented IPA punch in the nose, however the flavor is thankfully much more mild. Long lasting, dry looking head. Overall flavor is lighter than expected, a nice surprise. Hawksfan17 (717), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA May 26, 2009 This light gold pour smells of hops. The flavor is fruitier and it goes down smooth. It does retain that essence of the hop flower though.
