weitz15 (340) - West Lafayette, Indiana, USA - APR 8, 2012
Golden pour, thin white head. Flavor is lacking a bit here. Funky taste, almost no carbonation. Of the sampler I tried, this may be my least favorite. Perhaps a little more malts and a little less grains, if there are any.

decaturstevo (3669) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - FEB 19, 2012
Golden pour with a creamy white head and lace. Aroma is rock candy and a hinto abv. Sweet maltiness enhanced by Belgian yeast, bready, spicy clove/corriander. A flavor you can taste and breath long after the glass is empty. Medium bodied with good carbonation. A pretty nice beer.

IndyBeerSnob (109) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - FEB 10, 2012
On tap at brewery. Poured to a 10oz glass. Appearance is a lager gold with great lacing on the glass. Taste sweet syrupy body with a pleasing finish. This isn’t my favorite attempt at a trippel but it does do a pretty good job.

CaptainCougar (6834) - Columbia, Maryland, USA - APR 24, 2006
Bottle #123/250: Pours a hazy golden bronze with a thin ring of white head and some yesat floaties. Sweet caramel and black peppery floral light fruity aroma. Body starts with lots of sugary caramel sweetness, some light fruity complexity, and a mild black peppery spice toward the finish. A nice, fairly authentic tripel. Thanks to Springslicker for the bottle!

goldtwins (4320) - Nesconset, New York, USA - MAR 20, 2006
Bottle #123/250. Poured a mostly clear gold with minimal head. Sweet fruity aroma of apples and alcohol. Flavor is sweet, sugary, and fruity but kind of bland. Low carbonation. Some yeasty characteristics.

SpringsLicker (2538) - Tennessee, USA - MAR 17, 2006
Bottle 124/250. Pours a hazy dark yellow with a smallish head. Fruity citrus Belgian aroma. Sweet with some lemon and the tartness balances well with the fruity sweetness.

LilKem (1214) - Marietta, Ohio, USA - MAR 6, 2006
Very nice trippel. Yellow in color with decent size foamy fizzy white head. aroma is lemon, grapefruit, and sugar sweetness. The flavor is of lemon, wheat, some lighter malts, and sugar. thin, but good otherwise. thanks for the share, whoever brought this to kps.

Shag (2283) - Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA - MAR 6, 2006
I dont like Trippels that much usually but bloody right this was good. A cloudy yellow appearance with a large white head. The aroma is similar to grapefruit juice with a hint of lemon. The beer is very smooth with some lemons, mild pepper spice, and alcohol showing up. The mouthfeel is slightly carbonated and creamy. I may be against the grain here but I thought it kicked ass! Thanks Jay.
