La Trappe Tripel

La Trappe Tripel

Bottle conditioned.

La Trappe Tripel’s aroma is slightly malty and estery. Despite its full, rich flavour, this out-of-the-ordinary ale still has a light and dry aftertaste with a touch of bitter finesse.

Ingredients: Water; Barley malt; Hops; Yeast. 17.5°

3.9 Orange with small white head. Fruity & spicy aroma (orange , pear ) . Fruity taste with a little alcohol. Balanced bitterness only. LIke a strong blonde . Very drinkable , deceptive.
2.5 Goudgeel vlot schuimend bier. Zwakke geur van fruit. Licht bittere smaak. Matige afdronk.
3.7 Bottle on the Nieuw Statendam. Nose is caramel, biscuity, cloves, and a hint of banana esters. Lightly hazy golden with a medium, lightly lacing, cream colored head. Flavor is lightly sweet and fruity with hints of cloves and cinnamon.
0.9 Het slechste bier uit het la Trappe serie. Het heeft een samentrekkende wort smaak alsof het nooit de tijd heeft gehad om de rijpen.
3.5 Poured from 330mL bottle (bb 06/2023) into it's proper glassware at home. Haven't tried this since before joining Ratebeer so it's long overdue. Clear golden orange with white head. Belgian yeast, esters, mild spice, a little sweet overall. The quad is great, but the tripel is just okay.
3.3 in keretében of nagy belga sörpótlás nem is tudom, valószínű elszoktam én már ezektől a ragacsós alkoholmaszlagoktól, legalábbis az élvezeti értékük számomra minimális. nem erről kéne szólnia a sörnek. mármint az alkoholró
3.7 Pours a cloudy, golden amber coloration with a small, fizzy head and visible carbonation. Smells of doughy, caramel malt and estery frui, with notes of apple and apricot. Taste is a good balance of doughy, caramel malt and estery fruit and spice, with notes of banana, red apple, apricot and clove, as well as hints of toffee and floral hops. Finishes with a medium sweetness and some banana, apricot and clove lingering in the aftertaste. Smooth mouthfeel with a medium body and carbonation. This makes for a nice Tripel that is enjoyable enough, while not quite being up there with the greats though. While it's a bit too sweet and not quite hoppy enough for my personal taste, there's a pretty nice ester profile to this, with a good range of fruity and slightly spicy notes, with a decent body and mouthfeel as well. Overall, this makes for a nice enough Tripel, but then again, why reach for this when Chimay and Westmalle are just as available at the same price?
3.8 Bottle. Mostly clear golden amber, nice fine head. Nose is complex estery syrup. Flavor is sweet, malty, smooth bitterness at the end. Great caramel overtones with a lot of complexity. Classic!
4.1 Very nice abbey ale, part of Trappist goft pack. Taste not reflective of the high strength, dangerous combination!
3.8 Velmi prijemny troska horkejsi tripel, belgicka klasika
4.1 De color dorado, turbia, a contraluz se ve poco, de moderada carbonatacion, con burbuja fina, pequeña y que sube rápidamente, formando una corona de espuma blanca, de un dedo de alto, que se disipa en poco tiempo, pero se mantiene un delgado manto blanco (en copa trapense). En nariz aparecen notas de levadura belga, cilantro, lúpulo, ligeramente a malta dulce, también floral. El sabor es iniciado por una burbujeante sensación que al ir desapareciendo permite asomarse el sabor a plátano, cilantro, malta de trigo, un poco a caramelo. Es un poco picante, recordando la pimienta. De cuerpo medio, tiene un agradable balance entre el dulce de las maltas y el azúcar agregado, y el amargor de los lúpulos, ambas características permanecen hasta el final en el retrogusto. Demasiado agradable de beber por está última característica.
