| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 13, 2005 Couleur ambrée tirant vers l’orangée, grosse mousse plutôt persistante. Présence levurée et plutôt sucré en arômes, sucre brun, cassonade, sucre à la crème. Gros malt épais et collant en bouche véhicule de toutes sortes de flaveurs sucrées restant toujours bien balancées. Texture crémeuse, effervescence piquante et bien présente. Finale un brin amérisante et métallique cachant bien l’alcool. Un exemple bien réussi du style. BitchesBrew (710), Berkeley, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Dec 25, 2006 [bottle] Light golden in color, with a foamy white head. Sweet fruity aroma, with a bit of alcohol present. Flavors are fruity, like peach and pear, with yeast and some sweetness towards the end. Finishes pretty dry, with some spice. haukur (684), Reykjavik, Iceland
| 4.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 20/20 | Jul 10, 2004 wow! what a aroma, fresh peaches, citrus, hops, just perfect for the style. Perfect appearance, very thick head, pure golden colour! Taste is explosive, this is Golden Monkey on steroids after a night out! Very easy, but oh so good, perfect mixture of sweetness, yeast, malt and hops. WHERE THE HELL ARE THE 9% ABV ???? In my eyes, this is the definition of a triple, I´m very surprised that the top raters havent rated this higher, this beats Victory, Allagash, and Westmalle by a long shot. A gold of a beer! dornoy (681), Lyngby, Denmark
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Feb 25, 2005 Large head on this cloudy golden body. Excellent taste for a blonde. Taste has sweet notes, honey or other, citrus fruits and spices. Alcohol is well hidden and the general impression is excellent. A pleasure to drink. Finish is bitter.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Jan 9, 2004 As with most tripels I've come into contact with, this has a head that sticks around for a little while. Fair amount of carbonation. A little cloudy. Honey golden color. Yeasty nose. Dry and crisp. Yeasty still. Not as much in the ester, cloves, or banana flavor department. Not sweet enough for me.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 12, 2009 330mL bottle thanks to matt7215 at his place. Pours a clearish straw gold with a large white frothy cap. The aroma is very nice, sharp, berries as an ester, peach, apple, candi sugar, very nice smelling. Flavour is qutie sharp, sweet malty aspects with blended esters upfront followed by a peppery finish and a minor boozy presence. Very dry in the aftertaste from the underlying hops. Very solid tripel, though nothing outstanding. Thanks for the share Matt. MrChopin (668), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Jul 3, 2008 Pours cloudy amber-gold with bubbly white head. Scents of bananas, pepper, yeast, and a dusty background. Dust reflected in flavor and coupled with sweeter malts. A sticky triple, which contrasts the dry character. An interesting tripel, but not one of my favorites. thomat (666), Göteborg, Sweden
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jun 19, 2007 Clear, pale yellow with a small white head. Sweet and fruity notes (prunes?).
Taste is sweet with some fruit. Full bodied with a nice, bittersweet finish.
