A small bottle from the off-licence opposite Jing Mei fire station. Aroma: fresh grass, vinous, boozy fumes, good stuff. Appearance: semi-opaque honey amber. Remarkable head, no gusher but foam occupied 2/3s the glass, nice creamy cap. Palate: full-bodied and rather oily, softish carbonation despite the foam; finish is long, boozy and warming. Taste: medium-sweet with rock candy, almond, some pepper from the alcohol. Good beer - only drawback was the head dissipated so slowly it took ages to drink my money’s worth.

Bottle at Hops, Crewe. Pours a bright golden amber with medium sized frothy almost white head soft carbonation. The aroma is mainly spices with hints of banana and bread rolls. In the mouth it varies between sweet and sharp but with the latter increasing. Flavour is wonderfully complex with Belgian yeast, cloves, spices, alcoholic strength and hints of citrus. Later on there are traces of corn, crackers and oranges as well. Sweetness lasts into a boozy finish. This is nice – a top class tripel.

From a 330ml bottle on 1/11/2024 (shared by Ed with me and Butz). Pours hazy deep golden with a huge head. The nose is clove, spice, Belgain yeast and a bit of banana. Same of the sip with some citrussy sweet and sour, leading to a pleasant light bitterness. Fullish body with lively carbonation. Really nicely balanced and very enjoyable.

Amber colour, large rocky head that does.not stay long. Aroma is white bread, a bit of herbal hops and peach. Light bitterness. Alcohol does not disturb. Lively carbonation, medium body. Good.

Lys brun lett tåkete med beige skum. Lukter brød og belgisk gjær. Middels fylde. Smaker belgisk gjær, noe karamell og lett bitter sitrus. Kort.
