First out of the four beers for Tripel night tonight is the Chouffe Houblon Dobbelen, made by a very well known brewery in Belgium. This beer pours light brown with a huge billowing white head, large carbonation bubbles, and very nice lacing on the glass. It took quite a while for the head to subside enough for me to even be able to drink it. The aroma is of pure pine trees, with some slight floral notes in the background. The taste is not nearly as strong as the smell, and is nice and mellow at first but leads into a giant Belgian hops finish.
Quite good, although a bit weird since its supposed to be a mix of an IPA and a Tripel, lets see how the other three fair in this little match up.
Smell -3.8
Taste - 3.8
Texture - 3.9
Overall -3.93/5
