Tap at Cherry Reds, Birmingham. Poured a very slightly straw colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is Belgian yeast, mineral, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter with a dry, crisp, refreshing yeast, hop, alcoholic bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. True to the style with less alcohol, but you wouldn’t know. Very similar to Duvel.

Appearance- very dark, pretty much black, no head whatsoever. Aroma- lots of chocolate, dark malts, chocolate milkshake, biscuits, hint of vanilla sweetness. Taste- coffee and chocolate, chocolate and caramel biscuit, burnt toast, undertones of vanilla sweetness. More vanilla and peppery dark fruits (blackcurrant) emerge as it warms. Smoky finish, fairly thin mouthfeel. Not bad, plenty going on for the abv.

330ml bottle from Saucy Pears, Worcester. Pours hazy amber, moderate white head. Opened without checking the label after a particularly spicy burger and, on first sip, assumed it was a juicy tropical DIPA. On further investigation, some creamier leanings seem present. Soft, creamy and sweet with a soft vanilla icing aroma. Taste has moderate spice, perhaps doesn’t have the body or carbonation of an Abbey tripel. It’s an enjoyable effort tho.

Keg at Eebria tap room. It pours deep orange - amber with a small white head. The aroma is rich, juicy, pine, toffee, resinous, stewed orange, tangerine and earth. The taste is pretty bitter upfront, wood, resinous action, grapefruit, peppery spice, grass, earth and some alcohol with a drying finish. Medium body, fine carbonation and slightly oily mouth - feel. As bois says this has an old-skool aspect to it, but it drinks real nice good one.
