Poured corked bottle into chimay goblet. Bottle was actually 9.5% abv. Golden cloudy in color. Nice bitter citrus flavor with an overall sweetness yet dry finish. Excellent tripel.

Cloudy gold with a hops and apple smell. Mild taste. Maybe too mild. Not Tammy finding a complex flavor here, but easy to drink. B.
