Bottled (750ml, bottle from Bier Tempel, BB 04/2012)
Hazy orange-yellow color, small steady white head. Fruity peach, but also papery aroma. Foamy-carbonaton, medium-bodied. Flavor is similar to aroma: dry papery background with some lime and peach with short finish. Very simple tripel. As Jorys said: an attempt to copy Deus!

Nice big fluffy head, loads of carbonation and a modest yellow colour.Aroma of tin and carbon. Tastes like burning plastic, a sour, rotten taste. Very bitter in a bad way. Dry finish.

Cloudy, deep gold. Spicy, golden malt aroma, yeasty. Spicy, fruity flavor very yeasty and nicely dry. Hops evident. Like a drier, yeastier version of a usual boring blonde. Ok but not so exciting.

Bottled. A hazy golden beer with a huge white head. The aroma has notes of citrus and light notes of malt. The flavor is sweet with notes of citrus, malt, and dusty hops.

Cloudy golden blonde. Dusty, perfumey yeast aroma. Dry, herbal taste. A bit fizzy. For me, it finishes a bit sweet, perfumey. Not bad, but the balance and fizziness aren’t really there.

Pours deep amber into a tulip. Sea foam head with medium retention leaves spots as it recedes to hug rim. Sweet summer fruits, caramel and alcohol aromas. Sharp and slightly sour upfront turning peppery in the lasting finish.

Bottled (Belgian Shop). Hazy golden colour with big white foamy head. Some lace. Aroma is a lot of sweet fruits, some sweet malts as well as some spices and a bit earthy notes as well. Flavour is being quite much the same with the alcohol giving a slight sweetish kick that fits the beer very well. Spicy and fruity aftertaste.

Bottle (bb 10/24/10) thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a large, foamy white head and a hazed golden body. Aroma is grassy and dry with candi sugar, bread and CO2. Taste is sweet up front with orange peel but finishes very dry (low final gravity). Very lively carbonation with a dry mouthfeel.

My 600th Belgium rating. 75cl bottle @ Boysen, Odense. Pours a hazy orange with a small white head on top. Nose is sweet of fruits, yeast & alcohol. Medium and smooth palate. Lively carbonation. Spicy, fruity orange and yeasty taste. Some clove & coriander. Some dusty and floral notes, first mentioned probably from the yeast. Enjoyable.
