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.

Pale yellow slight haze in the beer. Med white head that held up for an average amt of time. Good rich malty candy sugar aromas with some spiceyness. Complex flavors, phenoilc with sweetness followed with some spice and alcohol. A good overall belgian trippel.

Flaske. Flot orange øl, med et lille skumhoved, og klart mindre karbonering end belgiske trippels. Masser af frugt i duften. SMagen er mere humlet end ellers, med en fin bitterhed til at balancere sødmen. En nøddeagtig honningsmag kommer frem som øllen opvarmes. Alkoholen er komplet skjult kold, men kommer også frem med varmen og giver en god balance. Rigtig lækker øl.

750mL Bottle. Aromas is a light kiss of cork, curt apple juice and a bit of bread yeast. Soft and quiet. Pours an opalescent, cloudy golden with a hint of amber, and a tall froth of clean white soap, lasting long. Flavor is fresh, bright and not overly complex. A solid tripel. Airy. A bit of creaminess, some calvados and a light tooth of malt sugar. Classic and bit more refined and deep than most versions. Finished extremely cleanly and with bits of almond candy.

Bottle. Pours a light orange, almost yellow color with a nice frothy white head. Aromas of bananas, fruit, wine, and a bit of pear. Creamy start to a non-carbonated texture with an oily aftertaste. Wonderful beer!

Batch 122- It’s scary how much this beer does actually taste like "fruit punch". Poured a golden color with a medium, white head. Alcohol is very well hidden. Sweet flavor, similar to "Hawaiian Punch".

Pours a vibrant gold color with a nice head. Very smooth flavor for a beer with 9% ABV. Great spicy flavor, very long finish.
