330 ml can, as Rock City Koene Ridder American Tripel. ABV is 7.2%. Slightly hazy golden colour, some floaties in the glass. Small white head. Aroma of spicy Belgian ale yeast, stewed fruits and dust. Moderate carbonation. The medium sweet flavour has distinct peppery notes, stewed fruits again, with a distinct hop bitterness in the aftertaste.

Can @ home. Slightly unclear, golden body under a small, but lacing white head. Aroma has malt, citric fruits, pear and hint of toffee. Taste is sweet malt, some caramel, a bit boozy, marmalade, perfumed and quite bitter. Balanced body with an average length aftertaste that feels sweet and bitter. Surprisingly big difference between what to expect from aroma and actual taste here. Decent, but feels a bit messy in taste.

Aroma of malts, citrus fruits, yeast, some spices such as coriander. Flavour is medium fruity/spicy sweetness with a surprising and welcome bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice and tasty Tripel from a promising young brewery.

(Draught at Arendsnest, Amsterdam, 12 Aug 2023) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Fruity, malty nose with citrus, lemon, grass and bread. Malty, fruity taste with notes of tropical fruit, pineapple, citrus, bread, candy sugar and a gentle spicy bitterness in the finish. Almost full body, with a certain sweetness. Tasty and well balanced tripel. Nice one.

Tripel by this Amersfoort craft brewery, longneck bottle from the Plus supermarket in Breskens. Snow white, moussy, medium sized, regular head on a initially clear, warm yellow-golden robe with visible sparkling, turning hazy and a bit deeper apricot-tinged with sediment. Aroma of ripe apricot, honey, field flowers, ripe pear, calvados, withering grass, white pepper, leek. Sweetish onset, hinting at pear and apricot with perhaps a faint dash of pineapple but generally clean, with medium to even softish carbonation and smooth, slick mouthfeel; cereally pale malt sweetish core under a slender layer of honeyish residual sugars, very rounded and smooth but also a bit thin for a tripel, evolving into a florally hopped, long but gently hop bitter finish, the bitterness highlighted by calvados-like alcohol which could have been better hidden. Slender, admittedly elegant and balanced but perhaps somewhat thin interpretation of a tripel, rather unassuming for this brewery in fact.

330ml bottle at Huppel the Pub, Den Haag. Poured a very slightly hazy golden colour with a very thin broken white head. The aroma is grainy malt, light boozy alcohol. The flavour is over moderate bitter, light sweet, with a crisp, light caramel malt, herbal, warm boozy alcohol bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
