Cletus (5001), Connecticut, USA Apr 25, 2008 Pours gold with a white head. Smells of bubblegum, oranges, dry malt, light spice, perfume. Tastes of citrus with a semi dry finish and some residual spice. Decent. WISEGUY572 (1244), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 25, 2008 This was wonderful. Belgian appearance; rich golden body, huge head. Nose of a tripel ... bread and yeast. Taste of a tripel, bread, yeast, with a longer and more bitter finish than I expected. Wonderfully creamy palate. tomciccateri (496), Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA Apr 21, 2008 33cl brown bottle. Pours a deep gold color with a lasting head and white lace. Medium body, big pale malt flavor and slight alcohol/spiciness. KnN (712), Greenbelt, Maryland, USA Apr 19, 2008 On tap at Brasserie Beck in Washington DC. Nice golden color with a big fluffy head. Slightly hoppy, clean finish and easy to drink. A touch harsh on the back end though. Good beer HighlanderOne (538), Somewherein, New Jersey, USA Apr 19, 2008 Poured from bottle 4/2008. Lemon cake aroma - nice. Big head, cloudy gold color. Great combo of flavors - bread, citrus, spice , pepper, banana. Hop and wood in the aftertaste. Great finish. Terrific. goozen (1061), Leiden, Netherlands Apr 19, 2008 Bottle 0,33ltr: Orange coloured great Tripel with an complex array of ingredients, with an great citric taste. gam (1059), brisbane, Australia Apr 13, 2008 Orange pour very neat colour, head thin back to mild froth cover,very ample carbonation.Aroma,stonefruit,malt,citrus,clove,vanilla.Flavour,ginger,clove,malt,barley sweetness throughout,a lovely mellow tasting triple,the 9% al vol is hidden by good flavours.Hints of coriander at the finish,bit of clove and ginger,like this range of ales. ElGaucho56 (386), USA Apr 12, 2008 Pours a clear light gold with big fluffy, soapy white head. Strong belgian grassy hop nose along with peachy sweet fruits. Very well carbonated, perhaps too much, on the palate, starting with honey golden malts before a sharp, catty, vegetable-like hop bitterness takes over into the long, mildly dry finish. An interesting tripel, but not too easy-going.
