Can split at the Tilt Tasting, Bingohame Convention VI, picked up from St Stephens News Dublin 02/07/22. Clear golden with a decent white cap. Nose is pale malts, yeast esters, breads, light sherry whisper, fruit rinds. Taste comprises bitter sweet fruits, caramel, grass, nutty, toffee, prunes. Medium plus bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a balanced kiss of alcohol. Decent for a tripel ... doesn't run silly sweet and cloying like many of its ilk.
