Westmalle Tripel

Brewed by Brouwerij der Trappisten van Westmalle
Style: Abbey Tripel
Malle, Belgium

Hazy bright orange coloured with a dense white head on top. Aroma is heavy malt and extreme esters. Flavour is intensely estery with strong alcohol notes, especially in the somewhat dry and very fruity finish. Body holds a very lively carbonation typical for the style, dangerously easy to drink.

Bottle from the Eastchase Majestic. Pours a hazy yellow with a shitstorm of white head. Aroma is kinda spicy with bananas, bread, and alcohol. Taste is yeasty. Bananas, grains, cinnamon, and a touch of alcohol. Warm mouthfeel.

Pours pale amber with a ridiculously large head despite very careful and slow pouring. Bready yeast dominates the aroma, with some white wine, soft alcohol and sweet clean malt showing underneath. That doughy yeast is way too strong! Flavours are horrendously sweet! Add to that the very noticeable alcohol and you end up with a extremely cloying beer. In the background there’s more of that overwhelming yeast and it all ends with a sharp finish that seems to be from the alcohol rather than the bitterness.

great tripel and a go to beer. best triple ive had so far with the exception of my friends homebrewed tripel.

Really good triple, pours a nice golden hazy color with a nice head. Has hints of citrus, banana, with a nice balance of malt and hops.

Bottle. Poured a cloudy gold with a thick white head. Aroma had notes of dark fruit, caramel, yeast and some earthiness. Flavor was sweet from the malts and yeast giving it a caramel flavor, but there were a bunch of fruit notes that made the beer enjoyable.

Pours a cloudy golden yellow color with a huge frothy head. Strong yeasty, fruity aroma with some citrus and cloves. Really nice. Taste is similar to the smell, with apple flavors and a bit of light hops. Well carbonated, and has a fairly dry finish. It’s maybe a bit on the alcoholic side for my taste. Overall it’s one of the better tripels.

De couleur dorée et trouble, elle dégage des odeurs de caramel, d’houblon et d’épices. Bière très riche qui peut devenir difficile à boire, car trop sucrée. Saveurs de miel, d’houblon, de malt caramel, de citrus.
