Bottle opened on the bus ride to the Hunahpu release. Pours hazy golden color with white head. Fruity aroma with some bananas and bread dough. Fruity and doughy flavor with some banana and spiciness from the yeast. Medium body with lively carbonation.

Bottle… Hunahpu’s Day 2011… Hazy golden ale with a big, fluffy, white head - Diminishes a bit, but becomes creamy and lasts forever. The bouquet is mostly doughy and mildly spicy. Pale malts are represented, flanked by a rumor of funkiness. Medium-bodied with Champagne-like carbonation. The flavor, although a touch dry, is mainly sweet and yeasty with low bitterness. The sweetness isn’t cloying, but it is slightly annoying. Short, crisp, lightly sweet finish. Bottle courtesy of Beerlando!

Golden color. Sugary banana, tropical fruit nose. Flavor is similar with a nice semi-dry finish. nice blend of sweetness and yeastiness not overly spicy or phenolic, one of the best tripels I’ve tried in a long long time.

Bottle. Hazy golden pour, frothy white head. Musty malt, banana, a little candy sweetness, earthy hops, and light citrus. Medium mouthfeel.
