Sampled form a 750ml bottle. Darker than the previous Trippels. A nice deep honey hue. Off white head. Big floral nose. Fruity undertones. Full bodied and smooth. Really nice. Easy drinking. Mellow palate with an equally mellow burn. Good palate. I really enjoied this one compared to the others.

Pale lager colored ale with a minimal head. Some "belgian" flavor. Apparent alcohol. Very fruity and sweet, not much bitterness.

11.2 oz bottle-An aroma of belgian yeast, malt, and alcohol on an orangis amber body with a small head. Taste of malt, yeast, and alcohol. A little too much alcohol but not bad.

33cl. Light golden pour and off-white head. Fruity, sweet, slight wheat and citrus. I think I prefer the dubbels to the tripels in general, but this isn’t a bad beer by any means, as the 3.7 suggests.
