Cork Bottle. Very carbonated. Large whitish head, lots of lacing, orange, hazy appearance. Aroma is mildly yeasty and a little alcohol and spice in nose. Flavor is similar with fruitiness--plum and citrus mixed in with the yeast. Flavor is quite robust. The alcohol in aftertaste is mild--and really darn deceptive!

Bottle. A fruity, yeasty golden blond tripel with a sweet/sour taste, slight alcohol bitter finish. More than average carbonation.

golden orange body with a very frothy white head that sticks around for a while. Smells of fruit and yeast with a hint of nuttyness. Bitter at first, but then sweet and citrus takes over, definite overtones of yeast and alcohol. Overall an above average abbey, just nothing outstanding

What can I say? Very high quality beer! Aroma is quite strong; almost smells like whiskey. Got almost an apple-y taste. If you’re willing to shell out the dough, this is a good one.
