33cl bottle. Pours a dark golden colour with a huge frothy white head of medium density that gradually dissipates despite there being plenty of carbonation. Big banana aroma, slightly grainy with lots of sweetness. Sweet flavour profile with banana and bubblegum with a slight yeasty sourness, some bitterness and some alcoholic presence. Warming in the throat, thin body, slightly watery mouthfeel with a bit too much carbonation. Crisp and refreshing but one dimensional.

bottle, golden colour and nice but a bit unstable white head. Fruity smell, a bit like the quadrupel. Taste: very light, fruity, grainy, bananas, sweet (a little bit too sweet for me). But I’m surprised that the rating isn’t higher. Very good blond beer, certainly for a Dutch one!

330 ml bottle. Hazy orange body with a big off-white head. Aroma is soft fruity and yeast. Flavor is a sweet, fruity and almost like matured apple cider. Medium body and a hint of alcohol in the aftertaste. Refreshing.

draft at Arendsnest in Amsterdam - Pours mostly clear golden with a one finger white head. It smells of yeast and pale malt. The flavor is of sweet, yeasty pale malt with a touch of hops in the lightly sweet finish. It’s light to medium bodied and overall a decent session brew though I expected a bit more for a Trappist brew.

Had from a big ass stone corked bottle ..very hoiy grail. Drank down from a La Trappe Goblet, yes ,I came prepared. What to make of this beer. Its very eazy to sink,if dull and errtatic. It might be only 6.5 % ,but it feels heafty,yet paradoxically its drinkable. Dirty yellow..with sediment floating pointlessly..aroma was a werhl-wind of subtle fruit esters.spices and raw alcohol. Its too sweet on flavour range. I meant its sweet then boozy and dryisly sharp. Alcoholic spices zipping around..everywhere.

0,5 l ceramic bottle.Clear golden-honey colored beer with a small off-white head. Fine fruity aroma with coriander, some hop and malt. Medium bodied beer with smooth mouthfeel. The coriander is the leader with fine top-fermentation tastes, nice fruity flavor, rich malt. Delicious hop in the finish, dry herbal aftertaste. Nice ale.
