Fills the mouth also after the sip. Easy to drink but best enjoyed slowly. screwball (802), Motala, Sweden

Complex and interesting brew. Spicy and fresh aroma. Also banana, hops and flowers. Flavor is warming from the high alcohol concentration.

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Dec 13, 2009 2008 - A little bit of a let down from the Blue, which was incredible. This is reminiscent of a Bernardus Abt 12.. although not quite that high in quality. A rich, creamy, blonde ale. omhper (12247), Stockholm, Sweden

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 11, 2009 Flaske: Lys næsten trippel i sit udseende. Duft af gær og frugt. Dejlig frisk i sin smag, gør at den igen minder om en trippel i sit udtryk. Dejlig belgisk øl hvor sødmen og gæren kombineret giver et balanceret udtryk Rigtig god øl. Gypsy19 (652), California, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 8, 2009 750ml from Total Wine & More, Roseville. Pours a mostly clear orange, fizzy within, with a large egg-white head. Aroma is mostly hoppy, with some lighter fruits coming around sparingly. Flavor is nice: Quite fruity and spicy, with a sharp funky bitterness at the end. Kind of an astringent bite, but it works. Lighter feel, good spritz element on the tongue. Not too memorable, but very likeable. Overall, very good.
