| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 15, 2009 330 mL bottle at St. Veronus. Hazy amber gold with a nice head and a moderate amount of sediment. Aroma is yeasty/fruity/spicy - similar to, but slightly less appealing than, La Fin du Monde. Still good though. Flavour is similar to the aroma, with a dryish, slightly bitter finish. Decent body and carbonation. A nice beer.

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Dec 22, 2009 Bottle 33cl.
Pours a murky yellow colour with a good size head and normal carbonation.
Aroma is very vague, but pleasant none the less, would have been better if it was a bit stronger.
Taste is very fruity, citrusfruits and sweet fruits there, nicely balanced with some spices on top.
Good beer. espenra (296), Oslo, Norway
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 18/20 | Dec 20, 2009 75cl bottle. From a friend. Best before 2012-12-28. It poured a light orange colour with a big white creamy head that settled down fast in the glass. Very carbonized. Aroma is fruity with notes of yeast and some wheat. Flavour is dry and a bit grassy and fruity. Medium long aftertaste. joshwilfong (793), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 19, 2009 clear and golden with huge white head. fruity nose. moderate carbonation for style. flavor with mild bitterness before some fruity esters and some strong alcohol, notes of oxidation makes me think this is an over aged bottle. the prospects of a great triple are there, but this particular bottle is likely less than ideal.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 13, 2009 2003 Vintage, from bottle Dec. 12th, 2009.
Pours cloudy golden as it is bottle conditioned with a small bit of carbonation. Smells of yeast, fruit, and honey. Tastes of heavy honey and sweetness. Light bodied and one of the best of the night. Very refreshing and sweetness lingers. Maybe it was the 2003 vintage that made it that much better, but I loved this one. StinkBall (74), Asheville, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 12, 2009 Great aroma, smells just like the Abt. Very fruity with the distinctive Belgium yeast smell. Murky, light brown in color with a one finger white head that lingers. Great mouthfeel. Light bodied but a full, carbonated palate. Flavor is all fruit with a nice alcohol burn. Has a grass like aftertaste that develops late. Slightly bitter aftertaste. Overall, this is another great Belgium beer!! Highly recommend. Sask89 (16), Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Dec 10, 2009 This beer pours a rather mirky pale yellow colour with a small white head. The aroma is of fruits and spice but it is not overly pronounced. There is fruit in the flavour but unfortunately all I could get was a lot of different spices which is good if that’s what you like. Light bodied with a long finish, it is easy to drink and a good beer. Bricks (40), USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 5/5 | 11/20 | Dec 9, 2009 Smells citrusy, hoppy and like bread. Not the best beer I’ve ever smelled. Thought it was going to be more bitter than it was based on smell. Taste of malt, citrus, and bread. Can sense the alcohol. Head and lacing is top notch, but beer is for drinking, not for looking at. Great palate. A little disappointed in this one. Definitely not one of Bernardus’s best.
