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).

Bomber pours clear copper with gold hues and white head. The aroma is a mix of red and white wine like notes blending into pears and aged yet varied spicy yeastiness. The taste is very similar with pears, apples, white wine notes, dry red wine notes and then a modest load of yeasty spiciness. Overall fairly abusive brew with fruity booziness.

Bottle from ølbutikken. Very clear golden, beautiful smooth good sized beige head. Looks fantastic but the head could be a little larger. strong yellow fruity, belgian yeasty aroma,spices, aroma is hot from alc. but not too much. flavor is yellow fruity, ripe yellow fruity, yeasty, strong. You feel the alc. kick in almost immediatly. burns the throat a little, but somehow the alc. is not too much in the flavor. A very good belgian style trippel. palate and mouthfeel is thick, oily. nice.

bottle pours hazy orange with a thin white head. Aroma is citrus hops, yeast, some pine notes. Flavor is interesting, starts with sweet grassy malts, citrus notes follow and end with a spruce and grassy finish.

Appearance: Slightly hazy amber with a small white head that dissipates quickly but does leave some lacing in the glass

Ok for a tripel, very sweet.

On tap. Pours with a huge white head over a clear golden body. Aroma of honey, pear, and candi sugar. Far too sweet smelling. Taste is sweet, coriander, caramel and alcohol. Reminds me strongly of BJ’s Grand Cru. Creamy mouthfeel. Not a good Tripel.

Bottle courtesy of a traveling colleague. The beer is a deep copper-gold color with a medium frothy white head that recedes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Sweet fruit and bready malt aroma. Medium chewy body with a borderline cloying sweetness and flavors of yeast, tropical fruit and a touch of peppery spice. The finish is sweet malt with a yeast aftertaste. Decent overall.

pours golden/orange, light off-white head. aroma hints of dark sugars, Belgian yeast, wheat/grainy nose. flavor, similar to aroma, plenty of Belgian yeast coming across, apricot like fruits for a pungent mouthfeel, light bitter finish, tad of spices, warming abv. Nice Tripel, along the style but the abv becomes a little too much on the palate.
