Grimbergen Triple

Brewed by Brasserie Union (Alken-Maes / Heineken)
Style: Abbey Tripel
Jumet, Belgium

330ml bottle (Cracked Kettle, Amsterdam)
Pale gold, fizzy then scummy head. Aroma like soup. Some pulses in there, and corn too. Pleasant carbonation, and plenty of lively fruity esters, some quite heavy such as melon, head up the nose.Fairly thin body, but a decent light-grain backdrop supports some quite biting hops. More blonde than tripel, as it actually covers the alcohol pretty well. However, there’s a touch of glue (ethyl acetate) in it instead, which detracts from the tastier parts. Hops were nice, but the rest was a let-down.

bottle, pours deep gold with a thin white head. Aromas of corn white sugar and malt. Light malt and extemely faint hops in the finish. Boring.

Yellow color with a huge white long lasting head. The aroma is strong with a little fruit. The taste is marked with alcohol combined with a little more sweetness than typical in a triple.

Big foamy white head. Clear appearence. Classic tripel smell. Strong alcoolic beverage that hide too much of the banana ( surprising ), orange and yeast taste. A typical belgian tripel.

I liked this one quite a bit. Pours slightly orange and hazy. Alcohol is quite pronounced but not overpowering. Perfect carbonation in my opinion. Overal, very nice Belgian.

Bottle 33cl. Pours a clear golden colour with a huge head and great carbonation. Smell is very hoppy and fruity and also the yeast is very preasant. Very strong and preasant taste of sourness balanced very well with some good fruityness. Goes down nice and warm.

Bottle from circle liq. Pours a golden hazy body with 2 finger white head. Notes of fruity esters, banana, bubblegum, lemon. Some light orange, etoh is well hidden. Its a vodka wit. Good tho.
