Dec 17, 2009 33cl bottle from Utobeer market stall. Anything below 150cl is supposedly the inferior version of this beer, but as I can’t acquire a bottle as huge as that over here i’ll make do with what i’ve got.
Pours gold with a white head. Aromas of apples, floral, some citrus, herbs. Flavours of grapefruit, barley sugars, wheat, pineapple. Bitter mouthfeel. Quite a dry hoppy finish. Not quite the ’perfumed frippery’ i’ve been led to believe, all in all a good solid triple.

Dec 7, 2009 Pours dark golden, with typical tripel nose of citrus fruits, spicy yeast and hops. Quite tart on the palate, but pleasant with it, all wrapped in a medium body. Decent tripel.

Nov 25, 2009 How this beer got such a high rating might have to do with how the brewery is - almost 1000 years?
It’s quite tasty, but not overly so - not even close to a 100 rating in my opinion. Drink this more for the one-time experience of its historicity.

Nov 12, 2009 I noticed slight anise in the nose, and of course the floural. Has a flowery lite honey flavor. Flavors are delicate, bitterness is quenching. Clean finish. Goes down easy.
