ACBF 2017. Thank you for sharing kraddel, tderoeck, Travlr & friends. Sampled draft. Hazy orange, only some bubbles. Nose is big sweet orange, very sweet wine, huge sweet white wine barrel, thick sugary grape, sweet orange, caramel, desert,... Wonderful smell. Taste is not fully on par, lightly empty with some mild soap notes, overal , vanilla oak sweet, big sweet orange with big sweet wine, sugar, low metallic notes, desert, caramel. Big wine sweetness, whole has a metallic streak, bit empty. Rather liked it, I like BA tripels in general. "Uptown Monk. He’s been living in his uptown monastery. I bet he never had a back street guy. I bet his mama never told him why...."

Sampled @ ACBF Vichte 2017. Fast klare orange goldene Farbe. Geruch nach reifen Früchten, Obst, wenig Holz, gering säuerlich. Geschmack ist intensiv fruchtig malzig, Obst, trocken, leicht alkoholisch.

Hefiger, hell getreidiger Antrunk. Wässrig gewürzig, wenig herb, süffig. Trinkbar. 10/9/8/8//8

Head gone, copper-orange beer. Alcohol, fruit, citruspeel, some toasted malts, bit of acid. Flowery, fruity flavour, muscat(grapes), but sweet enough. Finish is much drier, as dry white wine. Medium bodied at least, no carbonation. Not bad, but certainly not stellar.
