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 #28. Like their own description, subtle banana & honey flavors. It has a great nose; reminds me a bit of a white beer. It’s cloudy yellow w/ a big white frothy head.

This beer had an explosive cork and an overflowing effervescence. It poured a cloudy gold with a white head. The taste was a little dry compared to other tripels, but still very good.

Batch #26. Textbook example of a Belgian strong golden ale. Tastes more Belgian than most Belgians... Sort of hot, but very creamy and smooth. Yes, we have bananas! UPDATE 2/8/02 Cask conditioned - Excellent, wonderful, soift and tasty, even Raven liked it. The cask-conditioned gets a 4.7 from me. If you have the chance, you'll want to try it.

Batch 25. Cloudy yellowish-orange. Great head. A thin layer stays on it as you drink. Yeasty aroma with a slight alcohol nose. Had bits of sweetness to it. Finishes dry. A great beverage.

Batch 87. 750ml in a trappist glass. Pours cloudy with a great white head. Strong lemon aroma. Very dry with a citrus flavor but still pulls off a sweet body.

Yellow orange with a beautiful off white head. Full flavours of wheat, yeast, sweet spices. A grassy field on a warm summer’s day. A perfectly pleasant farmhouse feel. Wonderful.

Batch # 30: Banana, spices, fruit and yest are coming right into my nose. Nice orange color, little frothy head leaving brussels lace on the glas. Peppery but ligth flavor, also yeast, apricots and honey. Smooth, silky warm finish. Our cat liked the aroma - catnip in this brew? Great brew.

Batch #30. What a magnificent brew, and to think that it was made right here in the USA. Glowing golden in color with a huge white head. Aroma of tropical fruits and yeast, banana and bread.(like a wheat beer without the earthy tones) Flavor is long and lasts long after the last drop. Complex with the same banana and tropical fruits, yeast and spices that were exibited in the nose. Mellows in the finish with the yeast and malts being evident. TThere is so much more to this beer that I cannot put words to. It is, on the downside, a little bit on the abrupt side.with a little bit of aging however it would be on the top of the list of world class brews.
