Very nice aroma. Sweet, fruit, malt, and a little alcohol in the nose. Sweet sugary fruit and malt flavor. Some warming alcohol comes through to. Very enjoyable.

Clear orange-brown color with little head. Aroma of apricots, some spice, yeast, some alcohol. Flavor sweet and malty with a slight bitter finish. Overall a very good brew, but not as complex as the more renowned quads.

This belgian style pours out a very nice medium brown color with a light tan head. The aroma was sweet and malty with a hint of raisins or grapes. Taste is massively malty with plenty of yeasty/doughy flavors present as well. Very thick and full mouthfeel.

Bottle 750 ml. Had this at a tasting. Aromas of fruit & Belgian yeast. Flavors of fruit with a hint of birch beer and Belgian yeast. Complex but lacking mystique, funk, intreague. A bit on the sweet side. Candy like. No notes taken, memory only.

For some reason, we have gotten all of the special releases, tripel, grand cru, dubbel, white, summer, and never gotten this before. I have a bottle from 2003, but I thought i would see what it tastes like fresh, since I have never even had this before. The last of the Allagash beers I have tried, except for bruin and BA 4, i was eagerly anticipating this one. The cork popped off without too much pulling, but it did not blow off as I thought it might have. Reddish brown color pour. Smell is sweet, some hops, malts, sugars, and rich. Taste is smooth and fruity, sweet, with a light CO2 presence. Not hoppy, but just a nice beer. Has the taste of all allagash beers yeast, quite good. Proving this is probably my favorite brewery in all of the usa, without question. perhaps the world? I can drink anything these guys put out, any time. Great stuff.

Opaque reddish-brown body with about one finger of light tan head. Light scent - malt, fruit, and alcohol. Flavor is much stronger. Fruit dominates the flavor with some malt and alcohol toward the finish. On the heavier side of medium bodied. A fair bit of carbonation, but not prickly. Tasty and pleasant to be sure, and more drinkable than some quadrupels I’ve had.
