UPDATED: JAN 11, 2022 33cl bottle from Carrefour market @ in Tervuren near Brussels. F: big, white, good retention. C: pale gold, hazy. A: malty, bit orange, spicy, banana, coriander, pear. T: medium to full malty base, pear, banana, coriander, spicy, red apples peels, juniper, decent bitterness, higher carbonation, ok not bad yet nothing memorable.

UPDATED: MAR 27, 2020 33cl bottle. A clear yellow golden beer with a white head. Aroma of strong pale malt, spicy malt, some herbs. Taste of strong pale malt, sweet malt, honey, spices, typical belgian yeast flavour.

UPDATED: SEP 22, 2019 Bottle at home. A bit unclear golden color, full sized white head. Smell and taste malts, yeasty a bit, dusty, straw / hay, hayish bitter. I quite like this one. Good strong blonde imo. 7-4-7-4-15

Thuis geproefd op 11 februari 2018 van 33 cl fles (Willems). Bijna helder blond bier met witte kraag (redelijk stabiel). Aroma: zoet, moutig, licht fruitig. Medium body. Smaak: zoet, beetje kruidig (koriander), moutig, en een minimale hopbitterheid. Een te gewone zoete tripel.

The first beer by a new brewing company in Neerijse, brewed at De Graal. Thanks Johan for the bottle. Thick and frothy, membranous-lacing, egg-white, closed and stable head over a hazy, vaguely ochre-tinged straw-golden blonde beer. Aroma of ripe banana, stewed apple, coriander seed, potato peel, white bread, pear juice, hay, gin, soap and a light note of DMS. Sweet onset with strong bubblegum-ish isoamylacetate, banana, apple and pineapple notes with medium fizz; rounded, bready malt sweetish middle with a wheaty soapy edge and a lot of residual white candi syrup sweetness on top; coriander and light phenolic notes in the finish paired with a late but welcoming, hayish, floral hop bitter accent – yet the sugary sweetness lingers beyond this, highlighted by a glow of ‘jenever’-like alcohol which becomes just a tad too prominent for my personal taste. Too sweet and a bit too boozy, but otherwise decent enough; the question that remains, however, is: why yet another 20th-century style classic Belgian tripel? Surely a commercially driven decision, rather lacking in inspiration and creativity, I’m afraid.
