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).

Bottle, 65cl, shared by Papsoe. It’s a clear, golden beer, completely flat and without head. There’s alcohol, some spicyness, phenols and tropical fruits in the aroma. The flavor is a bit too much on the alcohol and phenolic side, with a nice addition of tropical fruits and some spices. Full-bodied, dry and sweetish. A bitter, sweet, spiced and very warm flavor finishes the whole thing. A decent one, but way too focused on alcohol. 090821

Bottle 65 cl. Clear pale amber with a small, rough off-white head. Aroma of fruit, yeast and distinct alcohol. Medium body, fruit, yeast and a burning alcohol finish. I love powerful beers, but this really, really needs some more body to sustain the massive alcohol. 210809

Bottle. Mild farty aroma, nicely malty and spicy. Hazy golden colour. Small stable white head. The flavour is quite sweet and spicy, good alcohol level. Slightly rough alcohol flavour and bitterness, but that is needed to balance the sweetness a bit.

Pours a syrupy hazy gold - soapy lace - aroma of honey, overripe apples and pears, banana, some orange, a light mustiness - about as sweet as you would expect an american-made tripel to be - quite a bit of overripe light fruits and sugary sweetness up front - a fair amount of citrus tang - develops some graininess and herbal bitterness through the middle, leading to a boozy finish - some belgian spiciness - not as bad as I was expecting, but it kind of hurts going down.

Bottle. Amber beer with a whitish head. Fruity estery aroma with some yeastiness. Fruit ester and sweet malt flavor with yeast. Medium bodied. Sweet malt lingers with esters. A bit of residual sugar in this one.
