33cl bottle courtesy of and shared with Kermis. Lots of pressure. We had to open this one slowly. Thick creamy white head. Cloudy blond pour. A decent tripel but a bit too yeasty

330ml bottle: BBD Jan 2015. Poured carefully into an ’Augustijn’ chalice at home on 24th Sep 2014. No sediment left the bottle, so I got a lovely looking chestnut reddy brown bodied beer with a full off-white crown on top: clear and clean body. Red berry and semi-sour feel to the nose and taste, different and interesting more than ’marvelous’ and ’wonderful’. A beer with a mixed style, is it an old Flanders red or a de Garde with attitude? I tried to like it and almost succeeded finding it fairly rich in body depth and flavour, even if I could not tell what kind of beer it should be pigeon holed into, if any!
