75 cl corked bottle Golden, somewhat hazy colour. Massive head. Citrus-fruity, zesty aroma. Fruity, citrus-y flavour with a long zesty hop-bitterness. Imagine Duvel with with big amounts of hops.

Pours a nice golden color with huge fluggy head. Aoma is of fresh cut mint, citrus, and apple. Flavor is only slight hop with spice and orange and a hoppy aftertaste. The hop was more noticeable towards the end of the glass.

Great looking golden pour with an enormous white head. The nose is yeasty fruits and dry hops. The citrus and floral hops seem bright and lively on the tongue along with the prominent yeasty profile...all on top of the sweet lightly roasted caramel maltiness. This pairs well with fish or pasta.

Bottle. Clear light to medium yellow orange color with a average to large, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white head. Aroma is moderate hoppy, flower, perfume, moderate yeasty, horse blanket, bread. Flavor is moderate sweet and moderate to light heavy bitter with a average to long duration. Body is light to medium, texture is oily to watery, carbonation is soft.

Pours a cloudy pale yellow with a big thick white head that foams rapidly (pour slowly). Aroma of hop flowers and wet bread. Fruity Belgian wheat ale taste with a noticable bitter hop bite, though not overdone. Quite good; alcohol barely noticable.

Bottled in Brussels. Had this right after an ’04 Westy 12 . . . you can imagine what my palate was thinking. This beer didn’t stand a chance on this particular day. Still one of the better hopped up belgian tripels I’ve had the chance to try. Nicely carbonated, refreshing, crisp, and nice balance of malts and bitterness. Overall - average.

the most impessive thing about this beer is the sharpness of the hops. malts are quite straight forward, the of it is spicy and floral. for the hop head.

a good representation of a flemish (belgian) ale. it is strong and has a moderately heavy alcohol in it’s character. everything else follows and that would be citrus in clove. it is bitter but the alcohol and clove moderates. it looks pale and has decent body with a foamy white head. touch of banana and it is yeasty. smells as it tastes. i find it clear and with a moderate finish at best. eeehhh
