Kapittel Abt
Ever so slightly cloudy medium-amber pour with runaway head if it's warm. Off-white foamy head that left clumps of lace, not traces. Smells of dry, warm pepper and mint with either berries or unripe pineapple underneath. First taste is a bit bland and hoppy, but it warms up in your mouth to something with dry Thai spices and stale bread. Absolutely no trace of the massive 1/10th by volume alcohol content. For me personally, the high hoptaste for a Trippel makes it a little less drinkable, but it is very nearly creamy. I would rather have the Kapittel Pater, though, if given the choice.
