Opalescent golden colour, minimal, creamy ecru-ish white head; aroma of tonka beans, pecan nuts, sour cherry, woody, some citric-acidy, fruity and even slight vanilla notes; taste of sour cherry, citric, tonka beans, pecan nuts, some cocoa, acetic acidy, woody and citric notes; well, let's start with the cons: it's for sure not a tripel, basically, it has nothing to do with a tripel. It is more like a flamish wild ale brewed withpecan nut, tonka and cocoa beans; anyway, I like it very much!
