75cl bottle from Sandersput, Ninove; shared with mom & dad. Hazy golden, big, foamy, off-white head. Aroma of vanilla, wood, mandarin, unripe yellow plum, pear, perfume, bread dough ready to be baked, 'blossom water'. Taste has sweetish pear & plum, sourish mandarin flesh over soft bready, doughy maltiness with spicy & perfumey notes. Floral hoppy finish offering yellow fruits, citrus, spices and vanilla oak, and a warming dash of gin-like alcohol. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Now this is the kind of newish Tripel that you want to encounter. Refined and tasty.
