Cloudy and yellow with a huge dominating buffalo-snow-storm of a head, Aroma was spicy with banana undertones sneaking their way up my nose and a tad bit of..well..urine, Alcohol kick in the initial sip which made me twitch, however, it was smooth but very warming, Extremely fizzy, spicy/banana/ dryness in flavor with dry bitterness in the finish which stays on your palate for quite some time

via trade with OhioDad - Big hiss when opening the bottle. Huge head. Couldn’t even pour the whole beer in the glass. Cool bottle, but heavier than must 12 oz. bottles. Pours a bright straw color with a huge white. Lively carbonation. Aroma is fruit and alcohol. Has a sweet fruit taste. Medium to full body. Has a lingering dry finish. Not bad. Thanks Scott.

Bottle. Pours golden with short lived white head. Smell is fruity and floral with honeysuckle, yeast and light alcohol. Taste is watery with floral fruity, non-descript flavors and light alcohol. A bit sweet in the finish with a yeasty flavor. Not terrible, but not something I particularly care for.

Bottled. Pours a hazy yellow color. Big white foam on top. Too big for my liking. Aroma consists of alot of yeast with a little bit of alcohol. A little bit of apple juice as well. Flavor is somewhat bitter and is yeasty. Quite a bit of spice. Some grains as well. Alcohol is well hidden considering the 9% alcohol. A little lacking in depth, but still it is not bad.

330 ml bottle. I love the bottle shape on these beers, which is unfortunately one of the few redeeming qualities of this beer. Pours a nearly clear gold with a moderate, white fluffy head that lasted until I poured my glass down the sink. Aroma of wet straw, kind of stale actually, along with a bit of honey. Flavor was sickly sweet. Not excessively sweet, but sweet like in a rotting fruit kind of way that makes you seek out the Pepto Bismol to keep it nearby just in case. Lots of alcohol as well. Long, dry, acrid finish. This stuff was pretty bad. After about half an hour, down the drain it went.

Golden and clear very carbonated with a big white head. Smell is alcohol, banana, bubblegum, and yeast. Taste is weaker and a touch off, yeast and alcohol.

an ok tripel. a slightly hazy golden with a medium white head. carbonation is medium. Aroma is banana esters, some spicyness, and other light colored fruit. Taste is light amount of banana, with some apples, pears, light spices, light to medium body. clean, dry finish.
