Bottled 33cl. It pours an almost clear golden beer with a huge head. Grainy nose which is reminiscent of apple, cork and acetone- poor. Sweet alcoholic taste. Some banana, arabic gum and glue showing up. Decent lacework. Strong carbonation. Metallic. Cloying sweet finish which is remininscent of apple and banana. I didn’t enjoy this beer.

33cl bottle, as shown. Hazy golden yellow colour - big, fluffy white head that collapses rapidly but leaves plenty of lacing. Aroma of oranges and floral herbs, some hops. Carbonation is low, body medium, mouth feel creamy. This is a triple, like most of them are, for sweettooths. Taste is sweet orchard fruit, balanced by some acidity and spicy herbs, with the 9 % abv all too obvious in the boozy subnote. Dry, spicy finish and lingering after taste. Guaranteed too make you drunk - also, I guess, to make you happy. If you don’t like sweetish, boozy beers, steer clear of Abbey Tripels in general!

33cl bottle. Pours a clear gold colour with persistent creamy white head. Aroma is malt and floreal. Aroma is very sweet and fruity with some acidity and vegetal too. Medium body and medium carbonation. Little bitterness. Sweety finish. In conlusion too sweet for me.

Pours gold with a large white head. Smells of ginger, perfumy, floral, dry hops, some residual sugar. Tastes semi sweet and perfumy with some nice grassy hints and a touch of pepper on the finish.
