It is golden in colour, and succeeds remarkably in blending mellowness and bitterness.

Bottle at Hops, Crewe. Pours golden amber (clear at first, hazy after dregs/yeast added) with a medium sized thick foamy almost white head and some lacing. Belgian yeast and banana dominate the aroma. In the mouth it’s on the cusp between sweet and sharp. Flavour has Belgian yeast and hops, bubble gum, coriander and cloves plus hints of pears and plums. Spices come along later, and become stronger in the slightly dry finish. This is very nice – a classic tripel.

330mL bottle. Pours a hazy dull blonde with a white head. Estery Belgian yeast on the nose; bubblegum, coriander, fresh grass. Flavour has a fairly dry and estery Belgian yeast expression. Bubblegum and coriander up front with some grassy, herbal notes. Solid tripel.

Bottle, 2024 vintage. Bready malt aroma with notes of dark fruit, banana, clove, grassy hops, spicy Belgian yeast and cereal malt. Pours cloudy amber colored with a thin off white head that has little retention and some lacing. Starts with bready malt, dark fruit, clove and cereal malt flavors. Finishes smooth and a touch dry with banana, spicy Belgian yeast and grassy hop flavors. Delicious.

Powerhouse off white head on an unfiltered amber body. Softy citrus hop and spice nose. Citrus hops, banana esters, cloves, cereal and candied fruit produce a crisp and fresh taste profile. The hops are a nice addition to the typical Chimay taste array.

Old rating - A 330ml bottle brought home from Belgium in 2015 and stored in my cellar. Opened on last Christmas day & poured a amber colour with a white head. Aromas are a combination of floral & grassy hops, sugar, malt and spicy yeast. The taste is sweet malt with some floral & grassy hops and mild bitterness. Medium bodied with effervescent carbonation and pleasant warmth near the finish. Very good

One of those beers that one sees in every beer shop and supermarket. Having said that a decent Belgian Tripel. Bottle at home.
