330ml bottle. Some tiny chunks float around in otherwise clear, dark amber colour with average to huge, firm, frothy, moderatly to mostly lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Sweet-ish, malty and yeasty fruity aroma, notes of dried yellow stone fruit, apricot, mirabelle, hints of loaf, some honey, cautious herbal-spicy overtones. Taste is sweet malty and yeasty fruity, notes of dried yellow stone fruit, apricot, mirabelle, a touch of honey, loaf, some mis-matching and minimall unpleasant, herbal-spicy interludes with a tobacco touch, some warming alcohol in the finish. Slightly oily texture, smooth and soft, somehow foamy-creamy, slightly cloying palate, soft but overarching carbonation signs responsible for the foamy part of the palate. Not bad.

Hazy medium amber colour, small frothy off-white head, dissipating slowly, fair lacing. Aroma sweet malts, toffee, light peach, yeast. Taste light heavy sweet and light bitter, toasted malts, toffee, some honey, peach, light banana, yeast, alcoho. Sweet and slightly bitter aftertaste, candy sugar, toffee, spicy notes, bit boozy. Full-bodied, creamy texture, average carbonation, quite sweet for a tripel, not really subtle but rich and well-balanced, I like it.

Clear amber color, small steady white head. Aroma is quite light, only some riped banana. Medium-bodied. Sticky sweetness. Honey, banana, alcohol, spiceyness. Only weak grassy hops. Overly sweet tripel. Meh.

hazy dark orange to amber colour, large, dense yellowis off-white head; aroma of peach, some apple juice, earthy-yeasty-wine cellary notes, minimal caramel, hints of banana and coriander, as well as slight alcoholic notes; taste is similar to the aroma; sweet and, at the same time, still somehow ’dry’; I enjoyed it very much
