Óriási, örökké tartó tömör hab, arany szín. Fűszeres, enyhén szőlős és citrusos illat. Fűszeres, komlós, lime-os, szőlős, kissé a tripelekre hajazó ízek. Közepesen testes, erősen szénsavas, alig keserű. Nagyon finom, 'sörös' sör.

0,33 bottle. A new, strong knightly stuff from Corsendonk, previously only the basic Tempelier was known, now the brand has "split in two". Nice label, unfiltered effect, light amber, more of a dark gold color, off-white, with a big head. The head remained finger-thick throughout, as prescribed, but it was not as nice as on Tempelier-Amber. Strong Belgian with more hops, this comes through in the aroma: a better, hoppier tripel-like scent: spicy, fresh, appropriately fruity, complex scent from the aroma hops. Some APA can hide behind it - the alcohol is not noticeable in the aroma here either. It is sharply carbonated, but it suits it well; the body is just right, but it is sticky, sugary, it almost sticks to your lips. It has substance in every aspect! The taste is extra good! Triple-Belgian notes come to mind, it gives absolutely more than a strong pale Belgian ale. There is a very distinctive orange-orange peel aftertaste at the end, which I really liked! The whole beer is very serious, they put a lot of effort into the brewery, and following the new wave expectations they created a hoppy triple-strong ale hybrid. I think if it stays like this, it will always be distinguishable from other beers, similar to Orval. Positive: no alcohol was felt, and no Belgian candy-sugar headache effect. Outstanding, perfect dessert beer!

Egy új, erős lovagi cucc a Corsendonktól, korábban csak az alap Tempelier volt ismert, most a márka "kettévált". Szép címke, szűretlen hatású, világos borostyán, inkább sötét-arany szín, piszkosfehér, nagy habbal. A hab végig ujjnyi vastagan, előírás-szerűen maradt meg, de nem volt olyan szép mint a Tempelier-Amber-en. Több komlós erős belga, ez az aromán is átjön: jobb, komlósabb tripel-ekre hasonlító illat: fűszeres, friss, megfelelően gyümölcsös, komplex illat az aroma-komlóktól. Némelyik APA elbújhat mögötte - az alkohol itt sem érződik az illatban. Szúrósan szénsavas, de jól áll neki; testesség pont megfelelő, azért tapadós, cukros, szinte ragad az ajkad tőle. Van benne anyag minden téren! Íze extrán jó! A triple-belga jegyek jutnak eszembe, abszolút többet ad egy strong pale belga ale-nál. A végén van egy nagyon jellegzetes narancsos-narancshéjas utóíz, ami nekem nagyon bejött! Az egész sör nagyon komoly, nagyon odatették magukat a főzdében, és az új-hullámos elvárásokat követve alkottak egy komlós triple-strong ale hibrid-et. Szerintem, ha ez ilyen marad, ezt bármikor meg lehet majd különböztetni a többi sörtől, az Orvalhoz hasonlóan. Pozitívum: alkohol nem érződött, és a belga kandis-cukros fejfájdító hatás sem. Kiemelkedő, tökéletes desszert sör!
