750ml bottle at a tasting. POurs hazy yellow with medium fluffy head. Nose is fruity and a bit dusty. Very fruit. Taste is big yeast with some spices (cloves or cinnamon maybe). Overall very fruity and very nice.

29th August 2008. Cloudy amber beer. Smooth frothy creamy malt followed by peach and bananas. Dry creamy malt finish. Very smooth and superior tripel.

750ml Bottle from Champanes, sampled in a tulip glass, has a orange pour with some darker orange and yellow hues, there is a little haze from the fine particles in the brew, decent effervescence, produced a creamy white head that hangs around and leaves white bubbled lacing on the glass, aromas of fresh orange and pear fruit, orange skin, citrus, faint floral and spice notes, pale malt, faint light fruit and white sugar sweetness, flavors of bright light fruit – orange and lemon with flavor of pale malt, and has spice, tartness and pepper at the finish, and is dry at the finish, mouth feel is light, less than medium, creamy, a touch of alcohol warmth with each sip after the ale warmed up a bit, this Tripel has a good presentation, nice nose and flavors, a very good beer.

0.75l - Nice head, good cloudy gold color. Yeast on nose, mainly mint on palate. I liked it.

Bottle. 25.4 oz. Pours hazy wheat-tinged golden, with a tall, solid, creamy white head. Aroma of hops, citrus, honey, barley, and hints of banana. Medium bodied, but very crisp and satisfying. Moderate finish. Decent tripel.

Bottled and available all over town. Might have had on tap at Uber as well. Lots of flavors here swirling around.

750ml bottle poured into a Sam Adams Sensory glass produced a thick, foamy, off-white head and light amber body. Reminded me of Leffe. Citrus and spice dominated the flavor with hints of grapes and honey.
