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.

June 2005, 750ml bottle (batch 66), consumed New Year’s Eve 2006. 1.5 years old. Bright orange pour with a lot of bubbles and a thin white head of soapy bubbles. Aroma is floral and sweet with a touch of alcohol. Flavor is very well blended, citrus, flowers, sweet candy. Slightly dry finish. Very nice quality tripel.

Batch 77 - aged about 8 months after purchase. Clear golden with a quickly fading white head. Very nice sweet spicy banana aroma and flavour. It’s weak point is a long rough spicy finish.

This opaque pale golden ale poured with a strong lacy head. The flavor is citrus-laced, with unresolved (residual) sugars, resulting in a fairly bitter finish and minimal carbonation. Would probably be better to age a couple years.

Cloudy golden body with with big foamy white head. Aroma of fruit, yeast, and spices. Slightly sweet flavor with strong yeast and citrus hop character. Quite spicy on the finish.

Aroma of yeast, banana, light citrus, honey and floral. Light yellow in color. Medium frothy white head. Alcohol fairly present at the beginning, mellows with time. Taste complex, similar to aroma. Carbonated, with a nice body. Good beer.

Very nicely done belgian here. The focus is a delicious smooth sweetness and great drinkability. The alcohol is put into the background do to a well crafted beer.

This is a terrific tripel that stands up to many of the great Belgian tripels. Aroma and flavor of banana, yeast, malt, citrus and spice with a nice hoppy, bitter finish. Nice foamy head that doesn’t disappear. Very well done.

A very fruity beer, light in color, but nothing else. The flavor is a very fruity mix, as is the aroma. I enjoyed this beer, and I think fans of the belgian ale will as well.
