3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle from the cellar. Still boozy and sweet, but I kinda like that. I can see where this could be a love or hate beer. For me it is on the upper end.

pours an amazingly clear gold.. medium strength head, light spotty receipt lacing .. . pretty one dimensional, but still quite tasty.. . a filtered tripel, it seems to take some of the luster away from a fine product, needs more yeast and more complexity, BUT is quite amazing in that fact; smooth mouth, light, and a summers tripel.. hell, this would get you in so much trouble .. . an awesome tripel.. i really enjoyed its simplicity and layed back style.. . thanks john!! . .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Istk6I24GJE

UPDATED: FEB 11, 2011 12oz bottle shared at the local HB club meeting. Clear lighter golden. color. Banana and light sweetness in the nose.. A pretty well fermented beer which actually makes the banana esters and sweetness a little overbearing in the flavor. Another too sweet American triple but light on body, too light. Make the body bigger and see where the beer goes.

On tap at brewery, pours clear yellow with very thin white head, aroma is not over powering but has nice sweet smell to it, you get a little bit of alcohol burn in the taste, alright.

Bottle - Hazy yellow with a small white head that’s gone pretty quick. Melon, banana, and sugary notes on the nose, with a bit of yeast. Taste is syrupy, sweet, and fruity, with some definite heat. A little white pepper and clove on the finish, with a ton of melon. Syrupy and sticky, with lots of warming heat. I like the subtle spice, but a little too sticky, sweet, and hot for my tastes.
