Crisp ending sweet. The abv is hidden for a beer this bright and clear in taste & aroma. The color is all that gives it away considering the pilsener malt. Enjoyable.Too Sticky. joshwilfong (786), Cleveland, Ohio, USA

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Aug 6, 2007 12 oz bottle. Translucent golden yellow with a small head that fades almost completely. The aroma is Belgian all the way, with yeasty banana and spice, as well as alcohol. The alcohol is prominent in the taste as well, along with malt, sour apple, candi sugar, and a taste I can’t place, but which a buddy told me is found in a Reisling. Slight bitterness at the end, followed by an alcohol burn. Full body. Not bad - not one of my favourite styles. RiverHorse (454), New Jersey, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 28, 2007 Pours a clear golden color into the trappist glass. There was about an inch of tiny bubbles in the head, and very nice lacing. The scent was very bready with some malt, and candy coming through. A very drinkable tripel, but lacking the complexity that I look for in the style. A finish of some yeast, spice and alcohol.
