On tap @ de Tol.
Clear golden with a white head. Hoppy aroma with some yeasty notes. Sweet taste with a proper bitter dry finish. Great combo of the Extra and the Tripel but I still prefer them seperately.

Licht troebele strougoudgele kleur en een fijne witte schuimkraag met prima retentie. Geur is zoetig, kandij, fruitig, waarbij het fruit wat meer uitgesproken is in de mond. Smaak is bitterig, licht zoetig. Medium body. Milde bitterheid blijft hangen. Ik begrijp het idee van zo'n blend niet helemaal, ik vind het wel leuk om te proberen, maar ik ben het eens met Borresteijn: ik drink liever de afzonderlijke componenten.

Old rating - A 330ml bottle from Waitrose supermarket in Jersey about a year ago, bottled 20/02/2019. Pours a dark brown with a beige foamy head. Aromas & tastes of fruits, nuts, rye, hints of spice, vanilla, dried fruit & sweet malt. Sweet malty dry bitter finish. Excellent dubbel.

Op tap bij In de Wildeman. Iets mistig lichtgouden kleur, witte kraag. Geur van banaan, esters, licht kruidig, hint van citrusvruchten, smaak is licht kruidig, citrus, hint van banaan, vrij droog, redelijk bitter. Komt over als een zachtere versie van hun Tripel, maar ik vind de afzonderlijke delen van dit bier beter dan de som. Lichte tot medium body, zacht mondgevoel.

Tap. Unfiltered golden pour, irregular white foam. Nose is lovely, it recalls the triple with some astringency. Mouth: a petit-triple with grapefruit and citrus.
