Commercial Description:
This golden hued ale is marked by passion fruit and herbal notes in the aroma, with subtle suggestions of banana and honey surfacing from its deep and complex palate. The Tripel's finish is remarkably long and soothing.

draft @ Taco Mac. nice golden color... wonderful aromas of banana, spices and citrus. Very smooth and soft over the palate. The finish is very enjoyable with the citrus and spice coming through strong with some bitterness as well. An excellent Tripel... ranks up there with the best... Looking forward to buying a bottle and having more...

Batch #104. Pours a hazy gold with huge head. Heavy lacing. Aroma of citrus and spice. It is smooth and well balanced. This beer hides the 9% well, but doesn’t hit me as anything more than a well rounded easy drinking beer. I would purchase again at the same price.

Allagash Tripel Reserve has a clody golden yellow color with a nice white head and really good lacing. Smells very sweet and malty. Also fruity. Has a very fruity/banana taste. Very good tripel

Aroma is a Belgian yeast scent with a little banana. Color is a hazy orange yellow with low carbonation and a thin head. Taste is fruity and bitter. Starting with a medium body it goes down crisp. Finish comes in with a faint fruit yeast taste with a little clove, then a bitterness stomps over it. After taste has a slight banana taste and the alcohol shows a little. Not the best Tirple I’ve had, its more like a strong ( high alcohol ) Hefe then A Triple.

Light golden with a tiny bit of cloudiness and an ample white head. The aroma is malty, yeasty, a bit sour, fruity - complex. The flavor was a good balance of sweet, a little sour and a little bitter. Good palate and carbonation. A very drinkable 9% alcohol tripel.
