Commercial Description:
A golden Tripel-style ale. A little lighter in alcohol, but not in flavor, than Westmalle, and more drinkable. It matches the best of Belgium.

bottle, hazy golden-yellow liquid with large head. I use to enjoy this beer a lot, i guess before i tasted a lot of others... Not very special, sweet fruity, mildly bitter (the wrong kind) and hoppy.

Bottle. Pours cloudy light yellow with a large, frothy white head, mostly lasting with good lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (bread, hay, straw), average hops (flowers, perfume), heavy yeast (horse blanket, barnyard, soap, earth) with notes of alcohol and cloves. Medium bodied, sticky texture, lively carbonation, and a metallic finish. Long duration, moderate sweetness and acidity, light bitterness.

330 ml bottle. Hazy,orange body with an off-White head. Aroma is malt, caramel, yeast and spices. Flavor is subdued malt, fruity, yeasty and bitter. Not outstanding but harmonic without any flavors really sticking out. Quite nice.

Bottle poured a hazy golden yellow with a large lasting white head. Aromas of pineapple, pear, banana, light spice and light straw. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of straw, pear, light honey and light spice with a smooth lightly dry fruity finish.

Feb 23, 2007 On tap in De Ooievaar. Creamy. Yellow, cloudy colour. Citrusy taste. Very tasty and quite enjoyable. Spicy and fruity tastes, develop into long finish.

Bottle. Vibrant cloudy golden beer with a very strong head. The aroma is grassy, herbal and spiced. The flavour is warming, yeasty and bitterish spiced. Overall a nice tasting mildly spiced beer.
