Can: Poured a cloudy bright yellow color ale with a medium size foamy head with light retention and some lacing. Aroma of peach/mango puree with light floral notes is OK. Taste is a weird mix of mango/peach puree notes with some weird dry hoppy notes and some malt notes that don’t realty mesh well together. Body is super full with nitro adding some kind of smooth texture. The balance of flavours was horrible, and I ended up draining more then two third of my glass.

Golden-yellow colour with a nice frothy white cap with bubbles, average retention and not much lacing. More lemon smell than basil, so fresh citrus and mild basil aromas that come out eventually. The lemon is what is tasted mostly. Kind of cucumber-basil garden freshness all-around. Gets a little hazy at last pour. Quite a refreshing summer light brew.

Oh wow ! I do like the nose from the get-go. Herbal, hoppy, almost like basil. Some other spices as well. Very nice for what I was expecting to be a pale lager. Lightly golden-yellow colour with an off-white, warm frothy cap, good stay and lots of thick creamy-foamy lacing. Get slightly unfiltered at last pour. I'm thinking those Pils malts give this nice spiciness to this one, as found in the taste as well. The mouthfeel has some decent dryness in the finish. Yes, the hops work out very well in this one. I would have again.

Not to be confused with their Triple Belge at 10% ABV which I did not like, this one pours a slightly unfiltered golden-amber colour with a big creamy, warm, mildly beige head with good retention and some patches of creamy lacing. Cereal grain aroma base with some light spices and fruitiness. The hops are present in this one, helping cut the sweetness. The other one was way too sweet. Again, decent cereal malt taste with the alcohol warming a bit, and some bitterness in the end. The mouthfeel is fairly dry because of the hops and alcohol content. A much better Tripel from this brewery.

Hazy mango juice looking brew with a fizzy cap that dissipates quick enough leaving a small ring of bubbles. Mango fruity nose with some vanilla notes. The fruitiness gets more natural with time. Mango juiciness, but not super sweet with a tad sour finish that does not last long. Mild tart on the tongue. Nothing too offensive and glad not overly sour. Refreshing fruity beer.
