Bottle, october 08. Hazy golden yellow color with a medium, white head. Spicy aroma with some graininess and fruit. Very perfumy but a bit sweet and cloying. Fruity, spicy. Not as sweet as expected from the nose. Kind of unidimensional. Medium, vivid, enveloping flavor. Alcohol well hidden but warming. Nice, warming tripel. A tad too gingery.

Bottle thanks to Bu11zeye. Pours a cloudy yellow with white fizzy head. Aroma of some fruit, faint malt, a little bread. Flavor is spicy, fruit, malty, some farmhouse. Palate is medium body, high carbonation. Not bad at all.....

Appearance: Pours a hazy, yellow body with a smallish, white head. Some sediment rolling around in there, too. Smell: Belgian malts coated in candi sugar, honey, spices, hunks of fruit, and even some flower petals. Taste: Pale maltiness augmented with a kick of candi sugar sweetness. Fruity tastes of lemons and pears. A tad floral. Spoonful of orange blossom honey. The tiniest pinch of Chinese Five Spice. Mild hop bitterness. Slight yeastiness. I must say the 9% ABV is well hidden. Sweetish, fruity finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-plus body. Medium-high, effervescent carbonation. Drinkability: My my, that’s not half bad! Reasonably tasty and surprisingly easy to drink down.

Bottle thanks to bu11zeye. pours with a foamy white head and a hazy yellow body. Aroma of dried fruit, spicey yeast, honey and bread. Taste is honey, spicey, yeasty with noticable alcohol. Lively but small bubbles. Dryish.
