Shared 33cl bottle. Hazy gold with a two-finger foamy white head. Aroma and taste of light malt, yeast, spice and alcohol with perhaps a bit too much emphasis on the alcohol.

Yellow clean color, with a medium head. Aroma is yeasty, candies, alcohol but also some flowers. Taste is yeast, malt, spices and too much alcohol taste. Dry mouthfeel, sweet, some bitterness in the end. Quite strong carbonation. Far from the best tripel examples.

hazy golden colour, huge and stable off-white head with, however less density; aroma and taste of a typical, though not too sophisticated tripel with hay, Belgian yeast, dried apricot, wine cellar and bready notes; correct, though quite far from the best tripels

Bottle. Typical trippely high spiciness, with slightly unpleasant apple presence, and some alcohol. Rather poor drinking for me. Classic tripel though. Eh.

Bottle, 0.33l, courtesy of CanCrusher. Pours clear deep golden with medium creamy white head and sparkling appearance. Taste starts moderate sweet grainy, follows sour grassy, yeasty and mild medicinal, mouthfeel is warming and alcoholic, while finish is moderately bitter. Medium body, slick texture and fizzy carbonation in palate. Quite hoppy tripel, not the best, but drinkable...

Bottle. Lidl. Hazy, honeyed gold. Frothy, lasting, white head. Nice hoppage to this, among the barley sugar malts. Bit of apricot and grapefruit and such. Taste is sweet and yeasty. Some soft bitterness. Mouthfeel is foamy and full. A tad boozy, maybe. Some tooth numbing going on. Finishes a little dry, with a lingering hop bitterness. Tasty gear, not far off a complete winner. Lidl did good with this set of beers.

Bottle. Malty aroma, banana, spicy notes, belgian yeast. Tastes the same as aroma, light sour and bitter. Full body, slick texture, malty sour and bitter finish with alcohol notes. Ok.

0.33 l bottle shared with Goran and Vi?nja. Thanks Duron, Pero and Zvonko. Hazy pale golden yellow with medium white head. Citrus, flowery aroma, yeast, sugar. Flat, sweet, spicy. Medium carbonation, flat finish. Bad.
