Aug 9, 2008 Pours a beautiful gold with a thin white head. Nice carbonation. Requisite banana and other fruit ester notes are present, but this tripel is not as sweet as other tripels. Long pleasant finish. Nothing to complain about here.

Aug 6, 2008 Hazy golden color with a white head. Light spicy flavor mixed in with tropical fruit flavors. Yeasty and sweet. A hair thick for my preferences making it slightly sticky, but still a suburb brew. It is thinner than the dubbel and four, however.

Flavor is quite spicey, smooth and perfect to this style. Bread, yeast flavors, followed by sweet ripe bananas. finishes with a pleasant hop bite tha is light enough to give a perfect balance. Where’s the alcohol. very smooth, very very enjoyable.

Jul 31, 2008 Pours hazy apricot with modest white head. Aroma is peach, apricot, citrus, clove, and honey. Flavor is subtle but nice. Hop character and bitterness is noticable, though alcohol is not. Lots of sweet light fruit with spicyness from both the yeast and hops. Palate is thick for such a light colored beer, but not viscous by any means. Flavors are unique and overall, the brew is well crafted.

Jul 28, 2008 (Bottle). Citrusy aroma. Hazy amber color. Taste is cloyingly candy sweet, with notes of alcohol. Not my style at all, as I find the sweetness overpowering and decidedly off-putting. Not an experience I care to repeat.

Jul 26, 2008 Pours a murky amber. Thick foamy white head, good lacing.
Aroma of pineapple, lemon peel, cranberry bread, some hops.
Flavor is mild, tilted to the bitter/hoppy side. Bread-y and citrus.
Good medium/heavy body, nice and thick for a tripel.
Overall, it could use a bit more fruityness and some less bitterness.
