Our Tastes-- Slaapmutske

Purchased about 4 years ago, Slaapmutske is a wonderfully labeled Belgian Tripel Ale. And being part of Junk's Imposed Taster List means that it clears the beer fridge for more rotation. Hue is a deep orange dark gold and taste is past it's prime, but still maintains a peach/apricot "twang" and plenty of the 8.1% EtOH is breathed out the nose with each swig. No head to mention and we dared not swirl the yeast bed on this one. There also seems to be a little sweet fruit almost melon on the palate. Glad we had it and moving on.
