T2Tool (352), Murfreesboro, Tennessee, USA Jan 9, 2009 Was a dark copper/light orange color as poured from a 750 ml bottle. A nice white head. Smell is of spicy citrus, with some candi sugar and honey also detected. It is a malty and sugary beer with a big yeasty finish. Didn’t really taste all the spicy, which I expected from the aroma. Bockyhorsey (2487), Mesa, Arizona, USA Jan 2, 2009 Bottle courtesy of superdave70 shared at hellbilly*s holiday tasting. Spicey yeast aroma. Golden body with white head. Flavor of fermented fruits and thought the last one had some spice this Allagash spiced up my life a little more. Wow odd stuff here for my palate I quess. Thanks Dave. jmm635 (250), Havertown, Pennsylvania, USA Jan 2, 2009 Nice looking brew. Cloudy orange color with a thick white bubbly head. Aroma was a little lemony, but mostly yeast. Flavor was like a typical tripel, but much weaker. There was no sweetness and I didn’t notice any alcohol present. The palate was really throwing me off. The finish left a very metalic taste in my mouth. I don’t really understand why people seem to like this so much. FlyingSwine (169), Littleton, Colorado, USA Dec 30, 2008 Batch 102. 750 mL.
Pours a super cloudy light yellow, with a nice frothy head. Medium lace. Aroma is honey and yeast. Flavor is honey and raisin, some yeast with a touch of malt and holiday spice. Palate is carbonated and fizzy, and the beer disappears in your mouth like pop rocks. Overall this was a very tasty, complex beer. Loved it. SuperDave70 (1157), Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA Dec 25, 2008 Sampled at the hellbilly holiday tasting. Slightly hazy deep gold pour with a lasting foamy head. Aroma of malt, yeast, light fruit and spice. Sweet fruity flavor with a spicy , warming alcohol finish. Medium bodied, dry finish. Not bad at all. Nejhleader (924), Lemoyne, Pennsylvania, USA Dec 23, 2008 has a slight banana aroma, taste is a bit of honey with some spicey malt mixed in, nice clove spice aftertaste, nice brew. Rciesla (3515), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Dec 23, 2008 Draft at BT. Pours an orange amber body with a white rocky head. Banana, coriander, pine, and honey. Sweet with a pepper spiced finish. Good brew. Sparky27 (1567), Phoenix, Arizona, USA Dec 22, 2008 Bottle courtesy of superdave70 shared at hellbilly*s holiday tasting. Pours a clear gold with a fluffy white head. Nose is cloves, spice and malty yeast. Taste is yeast, candied fruit and spice. Medium mouth feel. A bit too sweet for my tastes but a well put together brew. Thanks Dave!
