Commercial Description:
Deep to orange blond abbey triple winterbeer which has been lagered for 8 months on different stonefruits. Tsjeeses was born out of a 5 year brew experience regarding x-mas beer without being capable of finding a suitable name up to now. With the name came a face, a caricature actually, that was drawn on the day Urbain, our brew master and master brewer, drank too many Tsjeeses's. Every time he drinks one, he says "Tsjeeses, what a beer". Therefore the name is more an expression of stupefaction than a curse. We have had already many discussions around the pronounciation of "Tsjeeses". Very close would be that you say "cheeses" or cheese in plural.

Draft at Toronado. Light orange pour, a little cloudy. Aroma is sweet, like apples and medicine. Flavor is the same, dense mouthfeel, and definitely seems like fruit beer base. Interesting.

Cloudy, golden-orange color with a white head. Aroma of caramel, spice and citrus. Inviting and warm flavor of spice, caramel, and honey. A perfect beer for a cold wintery night.

Bottle. Pours cloudy gold/orange, with a small, white head. Aroma is spices, fruit, honey, and yeast. Flavor is honey, fruit, spices, and a little alcohol. Another Struise success.

Bottle poured a hazy orange with fishys and a small lasting ivory head. Aromas of pear, cinnamon, apple, orange zest and a hint of clove. Palate was medium to full bodied and smooth with a lightly warming finish. Flavors of pear, apple, cinnamon, carmel and a hint of honey with a smooth lightly warming lingering spiced finish.

Another impressive offering by tpd975. Pours hazy golden with white head. Aroma is very sweet - honey , sugary - with some fruity hops, and yeasty. Taste is hoppy with the nice Belgian yeast notes. Fruity notes - apricot. Alcohol is present and offers a warming mouthfeel. A good triple and something that wont come around too often.

Draught at The Trappist. Had this side by side with Pannepot, and was surprised to find that I liked this much better. Amazing beer and the best tripel that I"ve had yet. Orange-gold with a creamy head. Incredibly expressive fruity aroma with lots of peach, pineapple, apricot and apple, along with some yeasty spiciness. The flavor is just an awesome balance of fruit, spice, and alcohol. Medium bodied with smooth bubbles. I"m dying to try the reserva now
