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. 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.

This one was probably a bit off - bacteria infected. 33 cl bottle, bought in Amsterdam. Golden, hazy ale, a bit of a barnyard smell. Metallic, spicy, a bit sour. Some fruit, a littley yeasty finish.

Pours cloudy with a number of small floaties (a few chunks at the end). A small head that dissapears quickly, good bit of carbination. An overall nice flavor although a bit sour, kind of a sour apple aroma at first. Some citrus going on too. Thanks to HopDog for giving me this one.
