De neus van deze hergiste tripel getuigt van een zeer fijne hoppigheid, gecombineerd met zoet-moutige en florale toetsen. In de mond maakt de smaak alle beloften van de geur waar: na een zoete aanzet komen de bloemetjes en de hop; na de volle smaak volgt een lange afdronk, waarin de bitterheid door fluweelzachte mouttoetsen wordt getemperd.

Bottle. Clear golden body with lively carbonation and a big, frothy white head. Aroma has pale malt, spicy yeast, esters and a bit herbal. Taste is sweet pale malt, cane sugar, spicy and herbal with a fruity touch. Well balanced even as it feels rather sweet on the teeth. Balanced body and same aftertaste. Nothing outrageous but a well made classic Belgium ale that feels somewehere in-between a Blond and a Tripple.

33cl bottle from Hopt, France. Poured warm by mistake and therefore put to cold in the fridge. Subsequently pours foamless, loaded gold. Aroma is fruity, honey, peach. Body is average, on the thick side, with moderate carbonation. Quite an alcoholic feeling. Taste is pretty sweet, though with a good balancing bitterness. Final is long and alcoholic.

Quand même, maintenant que j’habite en Belgique il faut que j’achète des vrais verres de bières!

Bottle online from Beerhouseshop.be. Pours a hazy golden colour with a large thick creamy white head. Aromas of bananas, cloves, pears and spice. Taste has the same notes again with a fair amount of peppery spice and fresh hops on the finish. Nice balance. Medium body, average carbonation and a smooth spicy finish. Good.

Bottle, 6 years old. Clear golden with big white head.ooks good for the age. Sherry, sweet malts, soft cardboard, marzipan, sugary. Quite sweet, soft bitter. You really taste the age here, it's quite good still but I prefer it fresh.

Adding in my 300 Beers To Try ticks because I want to see how they impact my stats and some of them I will never see again. Will however re-rate them when practical. Hogs Back Shop. Obvciously not the correct tick.
