Hazy amber beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and a little soft. Mild fine carbonation. Semi dry. Smooth airy malts with a trace of creamy caramel. Mild hop spice. Little floralness. Dry sweetish pine. Airy dry finish. Lacks a bit of cohesion but all right.

Bottle . Looks ? this thing start with the bottle itself . even before opening . It is a very clear and light beer , so easy to see trough the bottle whats happening . By even nearly touching it , just lifting it up, you can see the clouds from the yeast rising . The sediment is barely settled . Upon opening, this turns out to be a slow gusher . A little informative talks here and there, learned me slow gushers are caused by a bad season of malts . Not by to much restsugar, as in for instance ’exploding ’bottles . The poured version ; It is physicaly unpossible to leave the yeast at the bottom , thnx to the slow gushing. the sediment is right there amongst the first 5 cl . The result is a rather fuzzy, light blond beer , with pieces ( ! ) floating around . No real foam . Smell is quite bad . And by bad , I mean awefull . Ever forgotten to rinse out a bottle of beer , and found it like a week later ? THAT smell ! Pretty rotten ... The exp, date however, if 1,5 years in the future ... Taste ( yes, Kamikaze-movement of me ! ) is sweet, typical GH sweetness ( which is not a nice thing to begin with ) . Rather thin , bit metallic . some bitterness . Taste is not good, but doable . If only the smell was not this bad, and it would not look like complete barf ....

Bottle Pours dark copper, clear . good , yet fast fading white head Smell is sweet and yeasty, yet very dusty, and rotten milk . Taste is sour ( infection style ) with lots of off-tastes that shall be not flatering to describe here . Somewhere in the back , i can get metallicness . seeking even further gives some malts . Sourness lasts and overpowers the aftertaste as well . Probably one of the worst quality beers I’ve ever had the pleasure to taste .

18/VII/14 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: XII/2017 (2014-819)
Clear orange beer, small aery white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: quite some citrus, hay, malty, grains, bit fruity, some honey. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: very malty, grains, some hay, bitter hops, bit sweet and sugary. Aftertaste: little hoppy, hint of exotic fruits, very malty, hay, grains, cow stable, German touch, sugary and sweet. Glad this one was no gusher. ;-)

Bottle at bierhuyske Pours blonde, good white head Smell is typical GH , but this time in a good way ... Taste is grainy, bit sweet , not as bitter as other tripels . The GH character shines trough, but its way above their average beer . Certainly a very nice tripel . No problems when cooled, but at cellar temperature a bit of a gusher
