Commercial Description:
The aroma of this beer is agreeably gentle and is carried by a discreet bitterness while the balance between the malt and hops relies on fruity accents and a lightly fresh aftertaste.

From the smaller 11.2oz capped bottle. Pours a lightly hazy deep gold. Thin ivory head, very lacy. Smells of caramel and molasses. Fruity. Baked apple. Hints of port or sherry. Taste is similiar to the smell. Deep rich caramel malt. Candy sugar and vanilla. Port like and woody. A bit of hops. Very sticky mouth. Pretty drinkable. Pretty good tripel.

Bottle (from Bitter Virtue, BB Aug 08). Not particularly strongly flavoured but contains a nice balance of soft fruitiness, sweet malt, light citrus and smooth slightly spicy hop finish at the end. Pretty good and well worth trying again.

Bottle. I found it to be pretty average as far as tripels go, nothing too different, and very similar to their Bernardus Tripel. Had a good head with a lot of lacing. Yeast and oranges/apricots in both the nose and flavor. A good beer despite being average.

Bottle, 33cl. Hazy amber colour with a thin white head, that lasts less than expected. The aroma is yeasty, combined with notes of flowers and candy sugar, everything very well balanced. Flavour is excellent, very rich and aromatic, with hints of orange and pineapple. Medium body and a sweet light warming alcoholic dry finish. It becomes better if served at higher temperatures than normal.

Bottle from Utobeer. A light tripel. Easy pour - caramel in colour with small white head. Brown sugar aroma with fruity undertones. Initial taste of vanilla develops into a light spicy rum with a long refreshing finish likened to that of a wheat beer. Highly carbonated *burp* Scuse me. Better than most tripels. This one’s a keeper.

Small bottle. Very light sediment is layered on the side of the Orval glass. The beer is dark orange. Light head. Moderate aroma of candy sugar and tangerine. Soft palate and flavour. I didn’t notice the spice in the initial sips or finish but seemed to emerge well after. Strong pepper character. With additional sips the spice is more up front. The fruit hinted at in the aroma comes through in the flavour along with a candy sugar sweetness. A solid beer.
