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 - obtained as a bonus beer from Hopdog - Thanks Steve! - poured hazy amber with a tall white head that lingers and laces quite well. Aroma is yeast,oranges, spices and a touch of honey all blended together. Flavor is much the same. Beautiful on the palate. So smooth for a triple. Balanced beautifully and no alcohol to be found in this one. Very nice tripel.. I loved it..

On tap at the brewery. The best place to drink this beautiful beer, with a large creamy white head. Creamy is also the word for the texture, flavor is slightly sweet, malty, fresh, citrussy and slightly sour as all IJbrews. Wonderful beer.

Excelent aroma, mixture of malts and wood. colour of honey witha subtle head of an tiny orange foam. Flavour is an experience of citrus and strong hops, creamy body. Strong flavor but not noticeable alcohol on it. Delicious!!!

Sampled at Stuffed Sandwich in San Gabriel, Califonria. Pale yellow with a gigantic head of white foam. Appealing nose of light fruits (pears and apples), bubble gum, spice and yeast. Airy, light and timid body. Big bubble gum flavors with hints of papaya, pear, apples, hops and yeast. I really like Ij and their beers.

Notches marked March/05. Born or best? Hazy gold with a few floaters, topped by a frothy, 1 inch white cap. Aroma of old grains similar to a very light whiskey with a few ice cubes melted in it. Sweet fruits, mildly sour funky yeast, vinegar, also. Flavors are sweet and fruity, rich yet crisp malt, a subtle herbal/pepper spiciness, tangy vinegar, just a bit of musty funk, and a dry yeasty finish that makes me want to drink it way too fast. Very mellow. Full, smooth palate. Solid brew, have to try some of their others.

2nd Brewery 07-08 Beer Road Trip with Bikesandbeer, 12/31/07 @ The Brewery with Alan Sprints. Alan was nice enough to give Kevin, Kevin’s Girlfriend Jessi a private tour and tasting on New Year’s Eve 07. Bottle form Alan’s Personal Cellar after Kevin was talking about living in the Netherlands Alan went around back and rooted out a 1996 vintage of this brew and damn it was tastey. Pours yellow bubbly with a 1 finger bubbly head. Nose had a huge yeast character. Taste was alsmost Greg like sweet, yeasty, light and all in all a damn fine Tripel.
