A golden and hazy beer, a head is big and blond. Aroma has fresh perries, light spicyness and grain. Taste has fruitness of perries, light spicyness. Medium bodied, high carbonation. Fresh, not complicated but nice.

Bottle shared by Tom - many thanks! Clear orange, stable, frothy, white head. Aroma of ripe mandarin, apple, yeast, minerals, banana, honey. Taste has sweet-sour apple, pear & mandarin flesh in a honeyish, yeasty body. Floral hoppy finish with ripe yellow fruits, quite minerally, some warming white wine-like alcohol. Medium body, slick-moussy texture, average carbonation. Pleasant apéritif.

Bottle at Airbnb in Leuven. Quite a floral aroma. Lagom appearance with reasonable carbonation. Taste is more bland with a boozy blonde belgian ending. Lagom beer.

Bottle at Monk. Golden colour. Big white head. Boozy tripel, aroma is fruity, but not so exciting Taste is quite sweet. But drunk at this stage. But nothing to write home about.

Zythos 2018. Cloudy golden with a lasting white head. Fruity aroma with pineapple and peach, along with nice spicy notes. Sweetish malty and fruity flavour with spice and a touch of alcohol. Nice and clean, almost up there with the trappists.

330ml bottle, unsure where from. Auchan is a likely bet. Pours clear gold with an enthusiastic white head. Aroma is yeasty, lightly sweet, mildly floral. Taste bears a robust, moderately sweet, lightly spicy blonde character. Strength boosts the fruity yeasty notes initially, but seems to fall a little mid-way through. Moderate to high carbonation. Pleasant, drinkable blonde.
