Golden shining and soft feeling in the mouth - perfectly balanced taste - full body and heart warming, a splendid aroma, tickling in the nose - hoppy dry long finish.

PilsnerPeter (2958) - Flushing, New York, USA - MAY 4, 2006
UPDATED: JUL 10, 2006 Disappointing for a triple. A bit bland. Crisp, however, with flavors of grapes? Sour fruits? Reminds me of almost a highly carbonated dry, white wine.

vanvenlo (837) - Glen Iris, AUSTRALIA - APR 30, 2006
20 Mar 2006 - Sweet tart hop aroma. Cloudy yellow head drops away quickly with no lacing. Big hop spirit with sweet malt flavour. Tangy bitter hop finish and sweet aftertaste.

chicagobears (376) - Elk Grove Village, Illinois, USA - APR 28, 2006
Pours cloudy yellow with big white froathy head. Apples and yeasty fragrance. A nice and dry triple with a hint of corriander. Fully carbonated. A lingering granny smith apple sourness. A bit sour for a triple.

Beerdedone (2188) - Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 24, 2006
UPDATED: APR 26, 2006 Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus, pours hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of citrus, sweetness, yeast, and alcohol. Flavor is smooth, sweet, and citrus.

BeerBlockaid (679) - Jacksonville, Florida, USA - APR 21, 2006
Brown and Caramel coloured lable. again a headgusher. First 2 pours into chalice were clear golden. Last pour clouded up a bit. Loverly peach-white head. Nose is thick yeast and light fruits. A small bite of alchohol. Taste is bready yeast with lots of floral fruits. Like peach like taste with a dry afterbite. Alchohol is below medium. Some softer hops. Not too shabby.

Birdiebeagle (958) - Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA - APR 19, 2006
Bottle Pours a Clear golden with a large frothy white head. Head seems to last very well and produces some fine lacing. Has a good sweet aroma with hints of fruit and coffee. Has a light bnody and an oily texture. Has a very solid palate. Lively carbination and a good duration. Has a smooth mouthfeel. This is a fairly good beer.

SoLan (1550) - Florida, USA - APR 11, 2006
Hazy gold with "Starry Night" yeast swirls. Large, fizzy, white head settles rather quickly. A bit of a relief after the gaseous dubbel. Aroma of doughy yeast, light fruit, grainy malt and a certain sweetness. Same flavors with a dry, bitter, yeasty, hop heavy finish. Full body has too much carbonation. A little sparkling or tingly character would have accented the flavor nicely, but what it has is too much. Overall, a decent tripel.

Lunkie (1128) - Glen Iris, AUSTRALIA - MAR 27, 2006
Hop malt aroma. Murky yellow colour with good head and lacing. Malt hop flavour with citrus and flowers. Smooth palate.
