Dikke Jan Tripel is a blond beer (dark gold) with a beautiful creamy white head. The aroma has a touch of cheese in the nose. Fruity. The taste is slightly bitter with a lasting slightly bitter aftertaste. A taste that lingers. The nose has a slightly sweet aroma, tart notes. However, the beer is nicely dry. Light hints of spices can also be noticed! Slightly hoppy. The beer is well balanced. Three types of hops and the same number of malt varieties make this beer a topper.

Bottle from Beers of Europe. Pours hazy gold with a thick white head. Aromas of honeyed malt, floral hops. Taste is on the sweet side, vanilla maybe. Sweet finish, and low abv for the style I'd say.

Golden colour with thin head. Full bodied and malty. Sweet from the malts but not much of the typical Tripel banana and spice.

Bottle from Carrefour. Pours hazy ochre with a huge, lasting, foamy, off-white head; decent lacing. Aroma of yeast, banana, pineapple, pear, spices, old bread, vague glue/solvent. Taste has sweet pineapple, banana, bready & yeasty feel with a spicy accent, something weirdly plastic-like too. Dry, grassy hoppy finish, yeasty, dash of jenever-like alcohol. Medium body, creamy texture, fizzy carbonation. Cliché with some flaws, too bad.
