06/VI/21 - 33cl bottle from De Hopduvel (Gent), shared @ BBQ at my sister’s place, BB: n/a, no print on the label, bottle or cap (2021-461)
Little cloudy blond beer, huge frothy creamy white head, stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: floral, sweet impression, lots of (over)ripe banana, soapy perfume. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bitter, start, bit chemical, unpleasant bitterness, some alcohol, onions, grassy. Aftertaste: ripe banana, very yeasty, bitter, rather unpleasant. Don’t like it very much.

Tripel flavoured with dandelion, from one of now absolutely countless hobby brewers in Belgium, brewed at Craywinckelhof like so many of these overambitious kitchen brews. Quite thick and frothy, off-white, uneven-bubbled, irregularly 'relief'-lacing head sustained by a whirl of almost champagne-like bubbles shooting upwards through an initially clear, deep and pure golden beer with 'metallic' old gold hue, shifting to a misty apricot blonde with sediment. Aroma of dry straw, banana peel, slight bubblegum even, 'oude jenever', cold French fries, indeed a hint of (dried) dandelion and other common weeds, bread crust, minerals, something 'dusty', old white pepper, rusk, potato juice, very vague 'band aid' phenols in warming up (but luckily remaining very vague all the way through). Restrainedly sweetish onset, banana ester but not overly sweet, mingled with hints of unripe peach and some pear, fizzy carbonation with minerally effects strongly lingering through a pale-malty, bready middle (strong as in artificially carbonated sparkling water), working to a gently herbal finish with a soapy effect from coriander seed and indeed this light background bitterishness of dried bitter plants - but remaining so light that nobody without the knowledge would ever suspect dandelion in this beer. Floral, bit leafy hop bitterness works together with 'jenever'-like alcohol to provide a slight astringency in the end - the alcohol eventually dominates, but fortunately not in an exaggerated way (contrary to what I sometimes encounter in many other new tripels). The finish is also softened by lingering malty and yeasty breadiness, providing some subtle sweetness against the hops, that herbal dandelion and the alcohol. In all: still a tad too boozy to be a truly great tripel, and the usefulness of the added dandelion escapes me a bit, but there is worse on the market these days. Passes - but on a side note: the unreasonably high score here is probably due to a 'hidden' tick from the brewer himself, though this is hard to prove - but if this is indeed the case, boo to that.
