    (New Year’s Eve tasting Flight (3 of 4) Orange color leaning towards yellowish straw. Nice white frothy head which collapses very quickly. Cloudy. Aroma of yeast clearly present. Plenty of alcohol in the flavor with a touch of residual sweetness in the end. Warming sensation is not really there compared to the 6 and 8 beers. Bitterness in the aftertaste. Frankly a bit more bitter than I would like in a Belgian beer. Just not digging this beer like the 8.

    33cl at La Maison Belge, Puerto de la Cruz. Pours slightly hazy (dark) golden with a white head. Classic Belgian tripel aroma; fruity, yeasty and malty with notes of honey and flowers. Fruity and refreshing with well integrated alcohol. Decent triple. Dangerously drinkable. (2013-01-05)

    Bottle: Poured a hazy golden yellow color with a bubbly white head. Sweet fruit and floral aroma. The taste was sweet fruit at first but finished tangy floral flavor.

    Pours hazy topaz with a thick and frothy ivory head. Aroma yields fresh malt, yeasty, stone fruit and subtle resiny hop tones. Flavor delivers zesty fresh malt, yeasty, stone fruit, butterscotch and resiny hops. Texture provides lively fizz and smooth, fair body. This tripel is no tripe!

    Pours a huge foamy white head and has a slightly hazy golden appearance. Pretty thick lacing. Aromas are mostly citrus and floral hops, light malts. Flavours are fruity, coriander, oranges and some good old Belgian yeast thrown in the mix. A little bit of bitterness on the palate. Goes down nicely. 8%abv is quite deceiving as it does not seem like a strong beer. Good stuff!

    Good quality tripel that seems to be almost as available as Sierra Nevada around these parts these days... dont ask me why? Golden Tripel, all the sorts of things that make up this style, as this is pretty much the milestone, hallmark, standard, icon, whatever. Great beer put together well. Light fruit of the fleshy variety, and sometimes the segmented variety. Yeast, but subtly and woven into a fabric of light spice, nothing wintery, all coriander and cardomon. Flowers, of the not smelly variety, just more the sensation of being in a greenhouse.

    Hazy golden color, lots of yeast. Clear white lasting foam, somewhat high carbonated. Strong smell of yeast and barley and bit of sweet taste. (Velp 201204)

    330 ml bottle, will soon be available at Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 8%. Slightly hazy pale yellow colour, huge white head. Strong and "typical tripel" aroma: notes of Belgian ale yeast, fruit, flowers, mild spices and white kandij sugar. The medium sweet flavour is spicy and moderately fruity, with decent hops in the finish. Has everything you expect from a tripel.
