Bottle Blond, clear body. White, frothy head. Fresh, vively aroma of vanilla, hops, coriander. Moderately bitter, lightly sweet flavour. Nice hoppy bitter.

Bright amber color; lively bubbles; giant thick head. Aroma of dry malt, old hops, cabbage. Quite good mouthfeel, some malt and sweetness, but there is also an odd vegetable touch.

Bottled at the Belgian Embassy in Oslo. (As Keyte Tripel Blond) Pours an almost clear, golden-blond body with a white head. Hoppy nose with spices and fruityness, quite pleasant. Spiced flavor with pale malt, some citrus and a good bitterness. Medium to full body, and a fruity finish with apples and canned pears. Pleasant and quaffable, dangerously hiding the 7.7% ABV.

Bottled. Light golden, almost yellow, with a small white head. Candi-sweetness dominates the aroma but there is malts and hops too. The sweetness dominates the flavor too, and it also has alcohol. Dry, lightly hopped finish. Rating: 6-3-6-3-13-3.1. 060328

Bottle, 33cl. It pours a slightly hazy, golden body under a dense, finger-thick off-white head. Lots of bubbles. Nice, but weak aroma with tropical fruits and white sugar, some spices and yeast notes. A little hint of citrus and banana too. Full-bodied and smooth on the palate, with a bit too much sugar, almost drowning the fruity flavors. A little spiced touch in the background, and a hint of bitterness. There’s some bitterness in the finish, but not much. Enough to bring in a certain amount of balance though. Overall, a nice beer, not outstanding, but very drinkable indeed. And the lacings it leaves in the glass are gorgeous. 091118

A hazy yellow beer with a fine white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of coriander and lemon. The flavor is of coriander and wheat.

(Brewed for a Belgian Zythos-branch, DOB from Oostende) Straw coloured; heavily carbonated to huge fluffy head, slowly fading. Nose with chalk, soap powder, honey, candi sugar. VERY herbal-bitter taste, spicey as in indefinable spices (see further below). Palate some flavour as from frites-baked-too-hard. Weird- but not bad. Just something which needs getting accustomed to. Candi sugar, surely. Dry mouthfeel, very much so. Slight burning sensation. I'd guess more spices than alcohol, but... THAT's the impression. Because; 1) there's NO spices used in this beer (says the pressmap) 2) it is supposed to mimick a hop-free historical beer - but two different hopgifts are used. Impressions can be deceptive...
