Pours a nice amber color with moderate, but quickly dissipating head. Aroma is not real strong but is very sweet (almost like those candy circus peanuts we ate as kids) and some floral notes. Flavor is not quite as sweet, but still very fruity, with notes of banana and yeast. Medium boded and a dry finish that hides the alcohol well. A solid beer, but not the best tripel out there.

Poured into a tulip with a thick white head. Aromas of plums and malts apparent. Initial flavor of malts followed by a slightly sweet, tart taste. Not a bad beer.

Hazy golden colour with a large lasting head. The aroma is yeast, fruits and some hops. The flavour is fruity, yeasty and a bit hoppy. Medium-bodied beer with a bittersweet aftertaste. Alcohol well hidden. Very nice brew.

Pours a bit hazy with beautiful amber colour and a larg e foamy head. Rich, straight taste with notes of liquorice, herbs, sweet malts, toffee, a hint of yeast and hops, flowers and bananas. Smooth mouthfeel, slightly carbonated. Quite light body but still avoids being watery. Alcohol is well hidden, creates a nice warming effect.

Bottle, 75 cl. Beautifully rounded tripel, with decent and fairly long-living head. Off-golden appearance. Fruit, hops and yeast on the palate and predominantly yeast and hops to the nose, with sweet and fulfilling mouthfeel. Commendable beer.
