Asylum is in the style of a Belgian Tripel. It has a beautiful golden color. Its relatively light body is deceiving for a beer of its character. It has a sweet and spicy, complex fruity aroma and flavor derived from our distinct Belgian yeast strain. Asylum finishes with a subtle, warming character to help you relax on any night. Asylum is an exceptionally smooth Belgian-style brew. Drinking great beer brings the world together. “Vrede op aarde” (Peace on earth).

Poured from 1 pint (6 fl oz) bottle. Orange-ish brown colour with dissipating off-white head. Some mild metal, banana, yeast, coriander, and various spices on the nose. Alcohol covers some of the flavour. Medium-light body, dry finish.

Small white head. Hazy deep yellow body. Spicy herbal alcoholic aroma with perfumy notes. Dry-sweet spicy fruity orangey taste with mealy alcoholic notes. Mid-bodied. Hot, sharpish mouthfeel. Dryish fruity peachy spicy aftertaste with mealy notes. Not bad, but too alcoholic and raw. Imperial trippel is not really a good idea. (0.65l bottle, shared by Ole_R.)

22 ounce bottle into chalice, no bottle dating. Pours slightly hazy golden amber color with a nice 1-2 finger dense white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Fairly dense soapy lacing clings on the glass, with some light creaming carbonation. Aromas of big apple, pear, grape, lemon, candi sugar, honey, bread, clove, light pepper, floral, herbal earthiness, and yeast esters. Damn nice aromas with good balance and complexity of malt and spicy notes; without feeling too malty. Taste of pear, apple, grape, lemon, honey, candi sugar, bready grain, floral, clove, light pepper, and herbal earthiness. No bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of light fruits, honey, candi sugar, bready grain, clove, light pepper, floral, and herbal earthiness on the finish for a while. Very nice balance and complexity of fruity and spicy flavors; with zero cloying sweetness present after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and full bodied; with a moderately slick and lightly crisp mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a small warming noticed after the finish. Overall this is a damn nice tripel. Very nice balance and complexity of fruity/spicy esters with malt flavors; and very smooth to sip on for 11.8%. Really enjoyed this one.

Bottle @ home. Clear, golden orange appearance with an off white head. A bit spicy yeasty, rich lemon/tangerine citrusy, a little bready aroma. A bit cloying, tangy clementine citrusy, slightly spicy flavor. A little too strong.
