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.

Batch #84. Damn pleasant beer. I really can’t fault Rob on his brewing, and Allagash is starting to be my favorite American brewer. Beautiful color, pours with the perfect small bubbled head, 3-4 cm cream-white head. You can taste a sweet cherry-like yeast, and little pear on the nose. Apple/Pear on the tongue, just the right balance of sweet and fizz, and a little tang on the back of the throat. Easily one of the best American beers of the last 5 years. (Bottle Pour 1/2/2007)

Sampled blind at "Better Know a Style: Abbey Tripel". Pours a clear yellow with a white head. Citrus and grain nose. Not very distinct. Citrus, pear, really fruity. Earthy, tangy, alcohol. Hop presence. Finishes dry with the alcohol and earthy notes. Ok.

Bottle. Pours cloudy straw colored w/ voluminous foamy head. Sour, yeasty aroma. Taste is very smooth and fruity, reminiscent of green apple.

Straw and wheat, slightly cloudy. Fluffy white head. Lots of fizzies. Lacing. Smells dry, like a wine. The flavor is predominately bananas and esters, with a dry sweetness and hoppy/spicy finish. Lovely.

Bottle from 5 Points pours straw colored w/ a extremely small head w/ good retention. Standard tripel here. Fruity, spicy, mildly nutty flavors. Good, but nothing special.
