German/Swiss tasting at three cellars Milwaukee. Nice bubblegum and clove hints. Good carbonation

Bottle. Pours a pale/medium yellow- very formidable head and tons of small bubbles racing to the surface. First taste is biting carbonation, with that typical ’tripel’ taste of banana and pear notes. True to the style, but nothing extraordinary.

bottle. Chunky but thin white head with some active carbonation, light golden color. Muted aromas of candi sugar sweetness and some fruity phenols. Flavors of yeasty tartness, shortbread cookies, some lemon/orange peels, and some lavender flowers. Aggressive carbonation on the palate detracts, too fizzy. Interesting, decent bew, but not a standout.

(33cl bottle) Enormous rocky white head atop hazy straw body. Aroma is moderately sweet, fruit (orange, some apple, banana), bubblegum, some bready yeast, clove. Taste is moderately sweet, lemon/orange, pastry/grain, light clove. Alcohol presence detected but not distracting. Medium-full body, some stickiness.

Pours a beautiful, vibrant golden colour. The head is incredible, erupts like a beer volcano. Lots of citrusy chracter, and overflowing carbonation. sweet, floral and yeasty in the finish. Plenty of bubbles that stick around for a while.
