Piraat Belgian Ale has a honey hue with a thick white head. The beer has sweet aromas of fruit esters, biscuit and yeast with slight sweet flavors with a dash of spice. Overall it’s an okay beer.

Chimay’s Cinq Cents has a murky honey hue with a quick dissipating head. The beer has light grain and sweet malt aromas. Overall Chimay white is dry with a bitter hops flavor. The beer is not well balanced, and honestly I am not a fan.

Victory’s Golden Monkey Belgian-Style Tripel has a nice golden hue with a creamy head. It smells like a Belgian beer and tastes sweet with malt, but then the sweetness dissipates. It kind of reminds me of a white beer, but is definitely different. It’s very malty with a slight honey sweetness and a very high ABV.
