Spiced Christmas tripel since 2007. Off-white head over a yellow blonde beer, sweet and fruity aroma of cinnamon, honey, candi syrup, pineapple, vanilla, flowers. Soft sweet taste, sugary, strong peachy and banana-like fruitiness, gradually evolving into a floral and spicy, lightly warming finish. Nice.

Backlog. 33 cl bottle @ home, 2007 issue. Blonde color, cloudy. Huge head, but short retention. Aroma’s from the glass: sourish, infected, stinky cheese, weird; retronasal: Malty sweet, herbs/spices, something off. Flavor: moderate sweet with something strange herbal. Medium bodied. Finishes slightly dry and somewhat herbal bitter. Flavor was OK-ish, but the aroma was way off.

Geelkleurig troubel bier met weinig koolzuur. Smaak is fruit, appel en citroen. Smaak blijft redelijk lang hangen.

(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, golden colour with a big and dense, slightly cream-coloured foamy head. Yeasty and slightly sugary malty aroma with fruity notes of apricot, orange and lychee. Moderately sweet flavour, medium to full bodied with a rather calm carbonation. Fruity and biscuity cara-malty taste with exotic accents; moderately sweet and fruity also mildly spicy finish with hints of alcohol. 8.I.13

Bottle. An almost clear one, golden in color, topped by a medium sized off-white head. And it gushed a lot as well. Fruity, oranges and tropical fruits, aroma with hints of yeast, white sugar and some alcohol. Yeasty and fruity flavor, sugary sweetness, and a decent bitterness. Medium body, lightly warming, and with a too high level of carbonation, which I for once like. A quite decent beer, but I don’t like gushing. 110610
