Sampled a bottle of this brew this night. Aroma has some alchol, heavy hops and some clove. Colour is copper red brownish (get it??) with a nice head that leaves great lacing on the glass. Flavour has sweet yeast and and some black- and blueberries. Leaves a nice alchol kick at the end.

330 ml bottle, courtesy of Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 10%. Copper coloured beer with a big and lasting beige head. Nice aroma of malts, caramel, brown sugar and balsamic vinegar. The flavour is malty sweet with some unwanted metallic sidenotes, also notes of caramel and brown sugar, hints of spices, moderate hops in the finish. Alcohol is noticeable throughout. Not in the league of the trappists this one.

Dark amber with off white head, no lots of foam (for a change, just tried in my Borgoña's wine cup -great-). Yeast, malt, caramel, pretty sweet... Alcohol sticks out a bit, in a nice way. Just had dinner with this and another "tercio" of Judas, feeling somewhat buzzed now. I love it. Price's the lowest I could find around here; with good availability, it's often found inside my fridge :)

This delicious beer pours an attractive deep amber colour with a medium sized vanilla head. IT has an initial sweet malted taste which finishes softly with caramel undertones.

Bottled. Dark ruby red colour, small beige head. Aroma is raisins, malts and yeast. Flavour caramel malts, alcohol and some yeasty notes. The alcohol is hidden quite well, but has a little "stingy peak", which does fit in well with the flavour.

This is a truly fabulous Belgian Ale. Of all Triples, this one rates right up there. Catchy marketing and wide availability in Flanders and Wallonia don't hurt.

Very nice clear amber with a large off-white head. Nice aroma of malt, orange peel, caramel and brown sugar. Complex taste, sweet to begin with, caramel, malts, orange peel, turning nicely bitter. Full bodied with pretty well hidden alcohol for 10%. Excellent.
