Bottle. Golden in colour with a slight haze and decent, off-white head. Sweet malts, coriander, a touch of spice and gentle finish. Pleasant.

From a 330ml bottle on 17/7/2011. Pours pale yellow with a bit of a head (looks like a pale lager). Has a mild fruity yeasty aroma typical of the Belgian style. Tastes fruity, spicy and a little peppery. A decent attempt at a Belgian style ale.

Bottle. Clear golden with no head. Pleasant aroma with mix of sweet toffee, fruit, principally bananas and spice. Medium body with lovely fine carbonation and an almost oily finish. Nice complex flavour, starting with a peppery spiciness and toffee with hints of raisins and bananas and finishing with long gentle bitter and spice flavours. Overall, a very decent take on a Belgian abbey beer.

Bottle, 10C. Pours rose gold with a white head that faded to a rim and island very quickly. Nice aroma of spiced oranges with some earth and champagne-like yeast. Quite prominent alcohol. Mouthfeel is rather thin and flat, but there are some nice subtle stone fruit flavour underneath the oranges and spice. Dryish finish. Not that I much care, but seems more of a Belgian Ale than a Tripel.

Pours orange/amber with a large persistent head.Aroma is very authentic, lots of wheat, peaches, oranges, white grapes. Has a white wine character, very light.Flavours let the beer down, at first it seems to be going well with more of the above fruit, and light sweet malt, but then a harsh, cringe-worthy solvent-like character comes through and makes up most of the unpleasant finish.Mouthfeel is on the right track, nice high carbonation.
