0,33 bottle. Pale golden colour, slightly hazy with a large creamy white head. Weak flavor of sweetness. Some sweetness in the flavor and a bitter long end.

Cloudy blonde with a vigorous fish bowl of carbonation feeding a light creamed head full of Brussels lacing. Lightly, effervescently yeasty, perhaps some wheat and uric acid, and farmousey aroma. Crisp. Earthy, yeasty flavor played upon lightly by phenols. mostly clove. Crisp, sprightly body. Flavorful , lively, and refreshing.

Very slightly hazy yellow with a large white head. Citrus and yeast aroma. Flowery, yeasty & spicy flavor with an medium body. Bitter finish.

From the bottle. Gold hazy body with a soft white head. Fairly hoppy throughout, soft esters and a hint of citrus. Sort of earthy cellar mustiness to the body, not as pronounced as Orval, but along that line.

Draught at TND: Aroma of lemon, Mr. Clean, and yeast. Poured pale yellow in color with a large, rocky, foamy, white head that lasted throughout. Cloudy. Good lacing. Flavor is slightly sweet. Tastes of yeast, dust, slight lemon, and pale malts. Light to medium body. Dry, slightly thin texture. Average to lively carbonation. Yeasty, dusty, medium dry finish.

Clear golden beer with a moderate head. Spicy aroma and taste. Some notes of hopbitterness. At the end slightly more bitterness. Overall a very good beer.

Sample from 330 ml bottle, as Witkap Pater Stimulo, at the Brewery International stand, Smak 09. ABV is 6.0%. Pale golden colour, slightly hazy, low head. Moderate spicy aroma. Zesty flavour, moderately spicy, with acceptable hops in the finish.

Bottle. Pours a clear gold. Flowery spice aroma, very nice. Crisp and mellow bitter flavor and finish is lingering dry. ok, i like it much better than the tripel- more body, for sure, and more complexity.
