| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 17, 2009 Bottled as Koningshoeven. Pours the darkest of tripels I’ve seen - a very amber influenced yellow. The aroma is complex and full of fruit - I notice melon, apple, banana, papaya, bubblegum, and champagne. The flavor is a bit different than the aroma, and has a more meaty, taste with the appropriate Tripel phenols. The moughtfeel is a bit thin and light. Overall, another very good Trappist offering. This one’s aroma is particularly good. Straling (185), Heerlen, Netherlands

Pours a clear orange colour with a small size head and great carbonation.
Aroma is very pleasant and fruity, mainly sweet fruits.
Can smell oranges, spices and also some banana there too as far as I can smell.
Taste is also very fruity and sweet with oranges spices and banana, great taste and a surprisingly good
compared to the other La Trappe beers which I’m not too fond of.

Looks great and smells biscuity with some malt and floral hops. Light alcohol and very malty in the mouth the finish is nice and bitter but not overly. Mouth is crisp with moderate carbonation. Nice tripel. cfrancis (311), Gloucester, Ontario, Canada

Konongshoeven is not the best trappist brewery but not the least good either. Creamy nice head, fully lasting with nice sparkling and lively carbonation. Amber orange body. This is a nice tripel, the nose beeing hay, citrus, grape, orange and even more Seville orange. Apple, coriander, honey, hints of green cheese. Spicy and complex. Medium to full body, dry and a bit on the watery side. Inital sweet and bitter taste finishing in a medium sweet, light acidic and light bitter flavor. The only dutch trappist tripel is better then many belgian tripels not really a world wonder but still sexy.
