Very full malt taste, a bit sweet, but that is balanced by a strong aroma from the yeast and a sourness in the finish. Some yeast lingers on the tongue. A bit rough, not the Duvel smoothness, but a pleasant beer.

Light and airy is a good way to describe this brew. Wheats, faint floral, citrus, banana. A refreshing candy sweetness. The body is heavy and malty and the finish is just barely bitter. Easily drinkable.

Bottle at Winking Lizard - Pours golden with a big white head that stays well and leaves some lace. Aromas of apple, yeast, grain, and some pear. Flavor is yeast, apple, pear, and grains. Light and airy and pretty well carbonated.

Bottle. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Orange-yellow colour. Moderate malty heavy hoppy aroma. Nice fruity. Moderate bitter flavor. Long finish. Creamy palate. I think this is a very good Tripel.

12 oz bottle. Almost clear golden with a small off white head. Aroma is very light spices, honey, light metallic. Taste is light citrus, light malts, light everything. Not very tasty, rather bland and watery. This is supposed to be tripel?

On tap. Golden, filtered appearance, thinnish head with medium staying power. Faint honey aroma. Sweet, watery beer with a touch of alcohol. Faint malt. Mostly bland. But I’m not above buying a tallboy of this at the train station before a trip.

After tasting the triple, the blonde was as good, however much less powerful. Well rounded sweetness, perfectly balanced.
