Commercial Description:
Asylum is in the style of a Belgian Tripel. It has a beautiful golden color. Its relatively light body is deceiving for a beer of its character. It has a sweet and spicy, complex fruity aroma and flavor derived from our distinct Belgian yeast strain. Asylum finishes with a subtle, warming character to help you relax on any night. Asylum is an exceptionally smooth Belgian-style brew. Drinking great beer brings the world together. “Vrede op aarde” (Peace on earth).

Bottle. Mild farty aroma, nicely malty and spicy. Hazy golden colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is quite sweet and spicy, good alcohol level. Slightly rough alcohol flavour and bitterness, but that is needed to balance the sweetness a bit.

It is a beautiful warm amber color and the head is creamy. The aroma has sweetness and notes of spice, yeast and malt. The flavour has sweetness and notes of coriander, other spices, yeast, malt, fruit, citrus, alcohol and the finish is slightly dry. IMO it’s a bit too sweet....

Bottle. Pours a clear amber with a thick foamy white head. Rich aroma, of malt, dark fruits, wood, sugar, and a hint of citrus. Taste is quite sweet, a lot of sugar, candied fruits, malt, dates, and wood. Lingering sweetness. Pretty good, but kind of boring.

Bottled. An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma has strong notes of fruit - especially peaches as well as medium notes of caramel, fruit, and metal. The flavor is very sweet with strong notes of alcohol as well as medium notes fruit - especially peaches, caramel, and alcohol, leading to a dry alcoholic finish.

22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy orange with a small white head. Aroma is spiced and mild boozy. Spiced, roasted caramel and fruity yeasty/phenolic flavoured. Sweet and caramelish. Light bitterness and lingering spiced note alongside a solid alcohol presence.

Notes of yeasty esters on the nose, dust, sweet grain, sugars, light banana, apple, and pear. Banana, pear, grain, honey, sugar, apple, alcohol.some limgering burn and sweetness. It leaked a little in my luggage so carb was softer than expected, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought it could have been.

bottle thanks to bhensonb. poured a nice looking gold with white head and some lacing. this was border line 4 on appearance. aroma was decently complex with sweet notes, orange, spices (cinnamon), pear, candi sugar??? flavor was orange, spices, alcohol, citrus, and candi sugar. body was medium with low carbonation and somewhat of a slick feeling. it was good but not great by any means.
