At ’bierweekend de lambiekstoempers ’ . Pours rather clear blonde, small white head. Smell is bit floral. Taste is funky, bit smoked. Not my thing

New tripel made for hobby brewery 5 Idioten in Elewijt. Dense and creamy, egg-white head over a fizzy, ’old gold’ coloured beer. Aroma of old bread, sweaty grains, lots of rubbery phenols, orange peel, peach, dry hay, white grape peel; restrainedly fruity, a bit peachy onset, gooseberry, white candi sugar sweetness lingering, smooth mouthfeel with a slightly metallic ’zing’ to it, grainy, somewhat wry ending consisting of phenols and a leafy, grassy, simple hop bitterness allowing most of the malt sweetness to come through. Not a great success - and as I argued before, aren’t there already enough mediocre tripels around in this country?

29/VIII/15 - 33cl bottle @ Lambiekstoempers bierfestival - BB: n/a (2015-1138)

Clear pale blond beer, big solid creamy off-white head, very stable, adhesive, leaving a nice lacing in the glass. Aroma: lots of melons, fruity, floral, rose petals maybe, elder flowers for sure. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: very floral, elder flowers, not too sweet though, fruity touch, soft bitterness. Aftertaste: little spicy, floral, elder flowers, bit sweet, yeasty touch, hint of ripe banana. Decent.
