Blond and copper-colored, Jambe-de-Bois is a powerful and full-bodied beer. It has a scent of ripe banana and a subtle blend of old varieties of aromatic hops. As for taste, the malt dominates, supported by a long and delicate bitterness. It has 8% alcohol.

0.33 l bottle from 'Etre Gourmet', bottled in May 2024 (!), so unfortunately already over a year old. Hazy, golden with a large, dense, stable, white head. Sweetish, gently yeasty-spicy and slightly fruity-floral aroma of grains, banana, clove, lemon peel and some fresh grass. Gently sweet, malty, moderately bitter, gently yeasty-spicy, quite grassy-spicy and rather fruity-floral taste of grains, banana, clove, lemon peel, pineapple and hints of honey, followed by a medium long, gently bitter, slightly dry and a bit boozy finish. Medium to full body, smooth and quite effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Very well-brewed Tripel, superbly balanced, great mouthfeel. Must be great when still fresh.

On tap at La Fleur en Papier Doré, Brussels, Belgium. A hazy golden orange/yellow coloured pour with a healthy white head on top. Hoppy, bready, citrus, yeasty, fruity taste/aroma. Better than previous versions and lovely on tap in this wonderful old bar that is full of character.

Draught at DLA. It pours clearly golden - blonde with a lasting white head. The aroma is freshly cut grass, straw, hay, bread, minerality, twist of citrus, freshly baked biscuit and oatcake. The taste is crisp, dry, some bitterness, snappy, boozey kick, floral, fragrant, spice, bread, biscuit, cracker, cereal, some freshly cut grass, boost and a twist of citrus. Finish is drying.

Draught @ Beer Witch, Brooklyn. Cloudy dark golden with a frothy off-white head, earthy aroma, low carbonation, medium bitter earthy taste, basement flavors typical with the Belgian yeast, alcohol undertones, thin body, long finish with some alcohol aftertaste. Very good but the alcohol escapes a bit.

From Delhaize. Grapefruit, coriander, lots of subsided flavours. Medium bitterness and sweetness. Well calibrated beer with the right amount of flavours and drinkability.
