La Trappe Tripel

bready yeast aroma with oranges and spice ... heavily carbonated ... malty sweet with a bitter finish ... aftertaste is a bit pastey with a light soapy film ... nice beer but I feel like I’m missing something

Muddy orangey brown sewage color with hardly any head. Ugliest tripel I have seen. Cotton candy and bubble gum nose. Thin, waxy palate. Malty, tropical fruit framework. Very sweet. Quite possibly an off bottle.

Hazy amber-orangeish hue, with a thick creamy white head, yeasty, bready dough, cheesy nose, with some orange, citrusy, fruity accents, a mild floral hop apricot accent, with some honeyed malt notes in the aroma follows through on a medium-bodied palate with a yeasty, toasty, fruity, cheesy character, with some candied orange peel, marmalade fruitiness, some honeyed pale malt, caramelized malt accents, a nice carbonation balance, with a subtle floral hop citrusy, leading towards a malty, fruity, faint hop bitterness finish.

Dark hazy orange with a large off white sustained head. Floral peachy aroma. Soft fruity flavour, peach and lemon, caramel and a lot of esters. Soft full body with a very gentle carbonation. A complex and interesting tripel, nicer than some of the other trappist versions.

33cl bottle from Systembolaget. Pours a golden color with very little head. The color looks a lot like the Blonde. The flavor is sweet, bitter and fruity and tastes like apples and bananas. It has a short aftertaste.

750 ml. crock. Strong banana taste and smell, dry fruits like apricot and peaches, sweet, sourrish and some bitterness. Excellent balance and well hidden alcohol. Top tripel!!

330ml bottle. White head, diminishes fast. brown-orange color, cloudy. sweet and sour aroma, tatels, banana. Sour flavour, soapy and bitter. dry fruits.

A delicous, light, buttery and banana infused (very banana) tripel. A nice night cap when you are not in the mood for a Quad or something like a barleywine; creme brulee of tripels.
