Appearance is another lemon meringue Belgian double — a white head on a cloudy lemon colored body. Taste of spice, bread, hops, yeast, and alcohol, with a sour finish not characteristic of the type.

Oct 18, 2008 Golden color with a big, sugary aroma with spices. Flavor is sweet, spicy, and a bit lacking. Average at best.

Oct 11, 2008 Straw yellow color with no head. Good lacing. Minimal fruit and spice aroma. Taste of green apple, pear with a hint of spice. No alcohol edge.

Aug 24, 2008 On tap at the Allentown location. Poured a medium golden color with a small sized head. Aromas of fruitiness (apples), spices, and citrus. Tastes follow suit with some alcohol in the finish. On the sweeter side.

Aug 16, 2007 Served in a 12oz goblet at the Allentown Brew Works. Clear, light golden body with a quickly diminishing white head. Not as aromatic as I would expect from the style; smells of citrus, bread, and spice. Flavor was also less powerful than I would expect. Citrus, cloves, bread, and light hops were present. Quite sweet, and the 9% alcohol was hidden very well. Overall a good beer, but not the most flavorful or complex tripel.

Feb 13, 2005 On tap at BBW, a very sweet aroma on a pale clear gold body. Definitely didn’t look like a tripel in the glass, but the flavor was very nice, a little on the sweet side, with neither component taking control of the flavor. The mouthfeel was almost a little tingly, possibly part of the 8.7% ABV that they say this has, but I didn’t really taste the alcohol as part of the beer.
