12 oz. bottle into a La Fin Du Monde tulip...

A: A cloudy golden straw color with a MASSIVE head full of large bubbles. Heavy lacing with good retention.

S: Full rich aromas pour out of the glass... yeast, esters, a bit of cloves and a lot of corriander assualt the nose.

T: Solid malt profile with a strong yeasty flavor. I also taste ripe fruit and a spice that lingers on for a while. As this beer warms up, the alcohol comes through stronger.

M: Very carbonated with a fairly thin body. The carbonation tickles the tongue and brings out the flavor.

D: Easier to drink than some of the other tripels I have had, but the high alcohol content can seriously limit the ammount of these you could drink in a single session.

It comes in this gorgeous marigold and super hazy with a bit of orange. Little bubbles coming up in it and a head that quickly dissipated.

Bright Belgian yeast with big in your face orange with a lot of breadiness. A first there’s a fruity cherry flavor, peach, orange, tangerine, and Belgian yeast, then there’s a medium round breadiness and creaminess. Also some coriander and clove in there. It’s a very sweet and fruity tripel.

The finish is nice and clean.

It reminds me a lot of La Chouffe with its wonderful fruit and balanced breadiness. I had this blind taste tested with Westmalle and Chimay. This was first. One of the best tripels I’ve had.
