Copenhagen 4/3-2022. 33 cl chubby bottle from Beerdealer web-shop. What looks like a monk inside a golden bell singing his head off armed with his psalmbook.

Pours unclear golden yellow with a midsized white head. Stable. Settles as thin but unbroken layer of foam just covering the surface of the beer. Clinging to the sides of the glass. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with a sweet, malty odor mingling with sweet fruit and with a sharp boozy edge. Sweet malts, banana and alcohol.

Light carbonation. Slightly thick, oily, soft, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a fairly strong sweetness followed by a moderately strong bitterness. Aftertaste is sweet with a underlying sharp, boozy edge. Lingers for a bit. Finish is semi-dry finish.

Solid Triple doing more or less what it is supposed to.

Bottle from Ramstein Exchange. Pours orange/gold with silky white head. Buttery aroma, toffee, butterscotch.tase is more of the same, smooth, slick mouthfeel. This is a nice one.

Beer poured from 33 cL bottle into wine glass at 17 ˚C.

A - Nice color, but the head vanishes too fast.

S - Not good, it smells like detergent, chemical flower smell.

T - Notest of basil, if you close your nose it doesn't taste that bad, maybe even "average".

M - Well carbonated, the high carbonation goes nice with the relatively fresh taste.

O - This is not a very good beer, that's probably because of the herbs used in it. If you're a fan of beers with herbs you might like it, but I don't.

Poured a yellow golden color into a tulip glass. Smaller head but good amount of carbonation. Medium lacing.

Fruity aroma and a little sweet.

Taste was reflective of the smell, with the sweet just ahead of the fruits, but a nice blend of the two.

Felt good in the mouth, although more carbonation than you typically find in a tripel.
