| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 28, 2009 Poured from big bottle with cork. Rum cake aroma. Cloudy golden, white persistent head. I taste bread, dried fruit, spice, alcohol, a bit of smoke. Heady, alcohol wanders to the sinuses after the swallow. Got a bit heavy at finish. Very good overall.

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 22, 2009 Draft. Light gold in color, with a fluffy white head. A surprisingly light nose with some yeast, flowers, and light fruit. Medium carbonation with a slick, almost a little oily, mouthfeel. The taste is a pleasant surprise of a little sour/tartness, pear, white grape, banana, and yeast. The sweetness lingers just a little too long for my taste. Overall it isn’t bad, but a hair on the sweet side. I could use better balance. BVery (464), Burnsville, Minnesota, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 11, 2009 PPWD Show. Excellent beer. What can I say I love the Belgians. A little cold. Had to warm in hand. Comparable to Chimay White. Would like to taste them side by side, blind. Obvious banana, bubble gum, coriander. Good mouthfeel. Light finish. Can’t believe it’s 11%. ampp (150), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 9, 2009 It has a light amber color with a white head. The smell has some fruitiness in it but it is mainly a smoky spice aroma. It reminds me of beef jerky. At the first sip, I noticed the same spice. It also has some citrus and malt flavor. The alcohol is strong, but not to harsh on the mouth. It is pretty good stuff. Not the best Abbey Tripel, but far from the worst.
