De Ryck Arend Tripel

I, owner of Café Ondineke, Molenstraat 47 9300 Aalst ;-) sell it for a couple of weeks now. Well balanced interesting triple.

33cl, from De Hopduvel Gent, complex, but not balanced, hazy, small head, nice brew

Bottled at Petalax Beer Festival. Clear golden with brief airy head. Sugary, almondy nose. Slim and dense, pretty much like a low alcohol tafelbier. Some rasinin, but whatever is is covered in thick layers of sticky sugar solution. Burning syrupy sweetness. Yikes, this is terribly unbalanced and contains not much of interest either.

Bottled. Golden colour, mediumsized white creamy head. Aroma is fruits, wood, malts and some alcohol. Flavour is fruits, some wood, mild parfumeishlike notes as well as some acidic notes. Overall very sweet, and not too pleasant.

(Bottled, 0.75l) Hazy golden with a small, lacy head. Sweetish, caramely-malty aroma with a hint of diacetyl. Sweet honey-malty flavor with medium bitterness and a bit too high acidity. Medium-bodied, sticky, low-carbonated. A sweetish and sugary brew, yet the acidity pretty much ruins it.
