Jul 31, 2001 Drank this directly after drinking Duvel, which was a nice comparison. It fell just short...a main difference I noticed was a lot less flavor in the malt. Probably was smoother though, nice balance of hops and malt. Could have used a little more in the malt flavoring for perfection, but overall a stand out beer.

Feb 23, 2003 This beer poured a golden straw color and formed a bubbly white head that left circular lace. A small amount of carbonation was present. It had an aroma of citrus, spice(?clove) and some yeast elements. The flavor was of spice and citrus with a warming feeling of the alcohol present. The finish was a touch astrigent

Apr 4, 2004 Light golden yellow brew, with a cloudy complexion. Sweet citrus smell. Kind of a medicine taste but sweet ending with a little hop kick at the end. Decent abbey trippel.

Jul 2, 2004 Clouded orange with huge lasting white head. Yeasty nose with citrus and hints of sharp pepper. Flavor is caramel and warming alcohol, along with malts and a complex mix of spices and fruits. Yeasty finish. Tastes as lovely, like all the Unibroue i have tasted!

Apr 15, 2004 Actually begins to form a head as soon as you crack the bottle. The color is gold, and hazy from partial filtration. Hard pour. Dense, white head with swirls underneath, like storm clouds. Aroma of fruit, malt, port, cloves and yeast. Mouthfeel is smooth, thick, malty, fruity, and crispy. Excellent hop and malt balance. Flavors of fruit and faint cloves. Great example of a trippel. The alcohol is well masked but warming. Not hard to expect with a brewmaster from Chimay. Excellent.

Aug 4, 2004 Good yeasty profile. Very malty, but fairly light at the same time. Excellent beer, will definitely try again.

Apr 24, 2005 Updated: Oct 11, 2005If this is the end of the world as we know it, I feel fine. This is a spectacular Belgian tripel of depth and character. Pours a muddy gold with a towering head. Glorious aroma shows curacao, grape juice, toffee, ginger and all-spice. It’s one of those wonderfully complex aromas that rewards each sniff with something new. Full-bodied and beautifully rounded. On the tongue it shows orange peel, honey, cloves and zesty hops - spice is the dominant theme. The 9% alcohol comes through in the swallow but carries it off better than most beers of this abv. A dry musky finish. (341ml bottle)

Oct 12, 2005 12 oz bottle. Best before 11.17.07. Pours a hazy gold with thick two-finger white head that leaves a bit of lace on the glass. Aroma is intense with lemons and bananas present. Complex flavor is sweet and spicy. Surprisingly smooth. The presence of alcohol lingers following the aftertaste. This isn’t really my style but it is indeed a good beer.
