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 at Quinns. Clear blond with big white head. Aroma sweet and lots of alcohol, quite yeasty and little bit sour. Taste is fruity, sweet and a bit of bread malt. Quite sweet, apple and a bit of peach. Quite full bodied. Lovely.

Hops and citrus both in aroma and taste. Just a bit soapy. Nice, but a bit thin and not very complex, compared to other triple trappist beers. Re-rate: golden color, beautiful cramy head. An almost oily hopbitterness in the flavor. Pine. Some fruit shimmering through the wall of bitterness. Not very refined, but certainly a good beer. Has improved considerably over the years.

Bottle at Café Chic Oldschool, Hjørring. Pours clear golden with big white head. Aroma of peaches, cloves, pepper, flowers, alcohol, a tiny bit medicine. Taste sweet with some fruity sourness and spicy bitterness. Thin to medium bodied.

Great bright belgian ale. The yeast comes through nicely to dominate the flavour, but isn't super strong. The alcohol shines through a bit, but offers a nice warm. Low bitterness, some belgian candy flavour. online belgian beer factory bottle. Slightly wine winey

0.33 bottle from Italy. Golden Amber, tinge of haze, low carbonation/head but fine bubbles. Sweet caramel syrup and flower nectar nose. Flavor is heavy Trappist yeast notes, caramel, complex and flowery without a lot of hop flavor; A bit of mid-/late-palate bitterness rounds it out nicely though. Dry white wine aftertaste. Classic blonde!

hazy, golden beer with some carbonation and a nice white head. Smell is sweet fruit and grassy hop. Flavour is really nicely balanced. You've got the clean sweetness you'd expect from a Belgian blonde but the bitterness of the hop counters it to make the whole thing crisp and refreshing but still sweet and tasty without being sickly. Lovely.
