(Bottle, 0.33 l - BB 27.05.2020, at Hilpeä Hauki, 20190928) The beer poured golden and hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had black fruits, spiciness and honey. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, spiciness, Belgian style yeast, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was yeasty, bready, sweet and bitter. A messy hoppy tripel

Avec cette Hip-Hop 3x6, j'ai eu l'impression de boire une bière expérimentale. Elle est à la fois surprenante et intéressante. Est elle une réussite pour autant? Pas réellement. Trop brouillonne pour cela. Rien qu'en verre, je suis resté dubitatif : quasiment blanche et opaque, surplombée d'une mousse blanche de 5 mm. Le nez par contre est très riche en arome : banane, agrumes, poire, camomille moût de raisin et coriandre avec un alcool qui se fait ressentir. L'alliance n'est pas tout à fait heureuse mais titille la curiosité pour la dégustation. Malheureusement la dégustation ne vient pas contredire les impressions. L'attaque est déséquilibrée avec notamment une petite acidité. Aromatiquement elle est cependant très complexe à l'instar du nez avec des notes poivrées en complément. Difficile d'ailleurs de reconnaître le Cascade qui est le seul houblon utilisé ici. Sur la deuxième bouche, la poire se détache quelque peu sur une base très proche de l'attaque. L'arrière bouche est quant à elle sur un duo acidité/amertume, avec peu d'ampleur et peu intéressante. L'amertume avec 44 d'IBU s'exprime très mal, et les 8 % d'Abv n'arrivent pas à structurer l'ensemble alors même qu'à partir de la troisième bouche il se fait de trop ressentir. Le final d'une longueur acceptable se positionne un peu plus sur l'amertume sans que celle-ci domine complètement notamment de par la place de l'alcool. Beaucoup trop de déséquilibre sur cette bière, hip, hop, à la prochaine.

15/IX/17 - 33cl bottle from Willems (Grobbendonk), shared @ home - BB: 2/IX/18 (2017-1494)
Clear pale blond beer, huge aery fizzy crackling off-white head, unstable, dissipates quickly. Aroma: very yeasty, fruity notes, pear, bit soapy, pretty weird, rotting bananas, something is very very off. MF: overly carbonated, nothing but foam in my mouth, very unpleasant, even after swirling the beer around in the glass vigorously. Taste: very dusty, dead, yeast, very unpleasant bitterness, sweet, sugary, grains, malty, very soapy. Aftertaste: hoppy, fruity, lots of overripe banana, dead yeast. Worst beer I've had in a long time.

Quite classically conceived tripel in this series, steini bottle from Pyl-Blommaert in Melsele. Thick, egg-white, moussy head, slowly showing irregular gaps in the middle but otherwise well-retaining, over a lightly hazy, pure and warm golden blonde beer with vaguely greenish tinge; more yellow-ochre-ish and completely misty with sediment. Aroma of pear, white pepper, dried field flowers (Saaz), ginger, old ’jenever’, straw, some banana, pineapple, camomile, soggy white bread, abbey cheese, dried grapefruit peel, old dry lemon zest even, but also an unfortunate hint of DMS (cooked cabbage). Spritzy, lively onset, sharp carbonation but with small bubbles so not overly harsh within the typical properties of the style, estery banana, pineapple and pear notes, sweetish with sourish edges, full and smooth mouthfeel. Some residual sugars lend a thinly honeyish effect to an otherwise bready, bit grainy malt middle, with a touch of soapiness from the wheat also providing a ’deep’, dim sourish effect. Ends dry, with some powdery yeast effects (not unpleasant actually), warming ’jenever’-like alcohol and a quite elegant hop profile, very floral (camomile), hayish and a bit spicy (pepper), adding sufficient dryness agains the initial sweetishness. Not a bad effort at all, apart from that DMS note, which fortunately does remain subtle enough not to ruin the whole thing. I like the idea of applying Cascade to an otherwise very classical, standard Belgian tripel, but in this case - and the age of the bottle may be at play here - it is more the Saaz which performs very well, adding elegant ’noble’ hoppiness to it. Decent enough, in all.
