St. Feuillien Triple Abbey Ale: Review


8.5% abv
1pt 9.4oz
$10.00 a bottle
St. Feuillien Brewery
Le Roeulx, Belgium

Appearance: hazy golden color body and a two finger foamy white head. 

Aroma: Tropical fruit meets sweet passion fruit.  The bouquet is very nice as the ale warms up.

Flavors: sweet candy coated fruits, a touch of mango with a smidge of apricot. Then, throw in a tad of pear and okay a squeeze of green grape and a little golden raisin.  There seems to be a dash of hula skirt grass from the hops! 

Mouthfeel: yeasty up front with a bit of bittness (light) on the finish.  Creamy in delivery and a semi-dry fruity aftertaste. 

My Strength Rating: 6 – the complexities of flavors and lingering aftertaste. 

To the Point:  tasty candied fruits and creamy texture with a semi-dry finish to make a pretty good Triple Abbey.
