330mL bottle, pours hazy golden with a big white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast and spices. Flavour of spices, citrus and yeast. Lots of carbonation and a nice complex mouthful. Better than the average rating, I feel.

bottle - Pours hazy yellow with a one finger lingering head. There’s a yeasty, malty, banana accented aroma. The flavor is very similar with a touch of spice. It’s a tasty abbey ale though not an excellent one.

Bottle. Hazy gold body with a big, fizzy, white head that slowly diminishes. Sweet aroma of candy sugar and mold. Fruity with hints of raisin, citrus, apricot. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes lightly to moderately sweet and moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively approaching fizzy carbonation. It tastes of mold, candy with some tartness. One dimensional because it lacks much depth of flavors. It does give you a nice alcohol warming and an alcohol bite that adds to the hop bitterness.

11.2oz bottle. hazy golden-yellow color, hint of green maybe. Classic Belgian effervescence, some sweet pungent sugar/alcohol in the aroma. Thick and rich, with a slightly odd spicy finish. Solid malt base, lots of depth. Some candi sugars nuances, never tangy like some tripels, more of a malt bomb. Good.

Bottle as shown. Pours a clear yellow golden with a small off white head that diminishes quickly. Decent spotty lacing on the glass. The aroma is a strong clove and banana with citrus. Medium mouthfeel with a very sweet fruit with orange peel, banana and a dry finish. A decent tripel from Brouwerji.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma has some vanilla yeastyness but not much else. Flavor is a little creamy with some pepper and ass kicking alcohol finish. This does not hide the alcohol at all. It got a little better as it warmed with some fruitness coming through but this is no where near a good triple.
