330ml bottle, part of a Christmas present selection box from the in-laws. Pours a deep unclear red with overly large off-white head. Cherry boiled sweets kasteel rouge type deal here.. fine for that kind of thing, sweet enough, artificially flavoured.. definitely seems like its aiming to get a slice of the massive kasteel rouge market, but not for me

Pale lager honouring the defunct Concordia brewery in Geraardsbergen, closed in the early eighties; seemingly an idea from the local Lions Club. Thanks tderoeck for sharing the can. Dense, egg-white, creamy and thick, stable head on a pale orange-tinged apricot blonde beer with tiny dots of protein floating around everywhere - not looking very much like a 'pils' at all. Aroma of banana, honey, peach, raw broccoli somewhere, brandy without the alcohol, pronounced 4-vinyl-guaiacol (clove), touch rusty iron. Sweetish onset, fruity banana, peach and pear notes, lively carb with smooth body; soft bready malts with a very thin biscuity edge (explained by the darker colour hinting at cara malts) carrying phenolic spiciness (clove) in a mildly bittering, floral finish, where this rusty iron element returns too. 'Pils' is a fairly narrowly defined genre and this is certainly not one - the phenols and esters betray its ale nature, and the addition of caramelised malts has nothing to do with the genre either so once again, we have here a mislabelled beer style-wise... Ignoring this style issue, it is not an upleasant one to drink, but I wonder how far the relation with the original Concordia brews really stretches. Not too far, I reckon.

Bottle at That Beer Place, Chester (as Martha Tripel). Pours a bright golden yellow with a sizable foamy white head and good lacing. The aroma is rather spicy with Belgian hops and a hint of nutmeg. In the mouth it has Belgian yeast and hops with a creamy texture and fairly high carbonation. Flavour has bananas, cloves, raisins and a hint of grapes. Later there are traces of alcohol, spice and citrus leading to a quite spicy and dry finish. This is rather nice !

Pours clear gold into a tulip. Bright white head with excellent retention craters as it recedes leaving trailing sheets. Sweet white grape and earthy multigrain aromas. Crisp with sweet white grape must, bubblegum and banana upfront turning to overripe banana skin in the dry, medium length finish.

Bottle at Au Miroir, Markt Sq, Ypres, Thursday 9th October 2025 after a 917km drive from nr München yesterday and finished today. We walked the short walk from Urban Gardens Campsite. Pours gold with a little haze, mid sized white head, nice carbonation. Lovely nice yeastiness, crisp, light bitterness, fresh but with a lovely pleasant oomph.... There is a little spice and a little floral perfumey edge.

26/9/2025. Bottle bought at the St Albans Beer & Cider Festival 2025. As Martha Tripel (edit - otherwise known as Sexy Blond per brewers website so have aliased). Train beer home. Nice pour. Aroma is caramel, yeasty, ripe banana, banana boat, malt, a little perfumed. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness. Medium body, smooth, light foamy carbonation. Liked this. Good finish to the day.

330 ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with light head. Aromas of chocolate malts, mineral water, dark fruit and bready malts. Flavors of figs, copper, chocolate, a bit of Belgian yeast and a lot of chocolate malts. Hot finish. Pushing the style limits for a Quad with the chocolate flavors and very big bready malts, but also quite tasty.
