Aroma of dough, leaves, alcohol, and clove. Poured a cloud, unfiltered pale golden color with amazing head. Primary tastes of alcohol, but notes of citrus persisted. Slick medium body texture, with a fizzy carbonation. Overall this is a great trappist tripel that you should try (alliteration unintended). Cheers to the monks!

Bottle 33cl. Beautiful hazy blonde in color. Pours a full lhead. Smells and tastes very lively: Yeasts and malts with light spices. A very refreshing beer. Westmalle just makes great beer on every level in my book.

Versata sul bicchiere a calice della westmalle, questa tripel d’abbazia ha tutta la sua eleganza. Schiuma fina ma molto persistente, un bel colore d’orato con sfumature sul rame, e un torbidezza che non lascia filtrare nessuna luce.. come si suol dire, anche l’occhio vuole la sua parte. Un aroma non troppo forte, di banana; al gusto è dolce e fruttata. Si sente molto l’alcol e un sentore di acido sul finale. Piacevole, senz’altro.

Hazy golden blonde beer with beautiful white mousse. Aroma is pepper, yeast and malts, but also bread. taste is delicious and on the dry side. its has very good hop bitters and a perfect aftertaste.

Bottle, 33cl. A blonde beer with a beautiful lacing, light unstable head that lasts, some bubbles. Malty, light hoppy and spicy aroma. Smell is also malty, some spices, with some hops on the background and a light bitter and dry finish. Heavy body. Very nice trappist beer!

Pale orange coloured, slightly hazy. Pours very lively with big airy head. Flowery yeasty aroma. Sugary, sweetish nose, funky mouthfeel, alcohol-peppery bitterish finish. Leaves a lingering candy sugar flavour in your mouth. Good.

bottle. Poured hazy, straw coloured with an extra large rocky white head. Active carbonation visable. Aroma is spicy clove and yeast. Alcohol hits you at first sip. Medium bodied, warming mouthfeel. Flavour is peppery, grapefruit peel, perfumey. Finishes lightly dry. I just can’t bring myself to like this style of beer and over rate them like so many beer drinkers do, but I did finish the bottle.

A great Trappist Tripel. Loved the dubbel too. Great balance of tart citrus, spicy clove, light candi sugar and malt sweetness, and some bready yeast.
