Jun 14, 2006 Hazy yellow coloured, with some carbonation and a large white head. Rather sweet spicy aroma, little yeasty touches and some fruity (banana, ...) hints. Nice full body. Bitter sweet spicy finish with some alcoholic touches. A very nice abbey tripel.

Jun 13, 2006 Bottle, thick dark yellowish beer with a light haze to it. Very light and sweet (for a triple). A very pleasent amount of spice. Not nearly as yeasty as I was expecting. Lovely

Jun 8, 2006 Bottle. Pours extremely hazy, golden in color with a thick white head that last. Looks more like a weizen. Aroma is sweet and spicey with some pepper notes. Hint of banana. Flavor: Very fruity and sweet upfront. Spices definitely there and with the hops, attempt to balance the sweetness, though falling short. Alcohol is warming...can taste it a little in the finish....definitely detracts. Overall, it’s a very nice tripel but falls a little short of being a truely great beer. I would drink again though.

Jun 8, 2006 What else can be said. This is a great Belgian triple. A must try for any triple lover (that sounds funny – am I just being immature?)

Jun 6, 2006 Bottle. Nice soft banana bread, apple, and clove nose. Hazy light gold body with a thick attractive foamy head. Soft mouthfeel with a touch of alcohol and CO2. Notes of brown sugar, alcohol, floral notes, cinnamon, watered down whisky, warming going down, cotton, and a big herbal/phenol presence I can’t put my finger on. Very enjoyable, one of the better Triples that I have had.

Jun 6, 2006 Pours a cloudy gold with a nice, long lasting head. Aroma is sugary sweet and spicy as hell, yeasty with artichoke and beets. The flavor shares a lot with the other GC beer I’ve had, the Grand Cru, in that it has a sweet sucrose taste that is very distinct and quite pleasing. It is lively and spicy in the mouth, sweet but also a touch sour at the finish, slightly harsh but very drinkable. There is a certain licorice/anise flavor that shows up as it warms, as well. If I homebrewed, I’d love to cultivate this yeast and see what I could do with it.
