Bottle from a variety pack. Pours a light golden color with a medum head.Aroma of over ripe fruits, spices and light yeast. Taste is mild citrus, molasses, with a sweet over tone. Nice, mild, easy to drink with a thin body.Smooth finish.

Bottle from Degarth,thanks. Begian yeast filled the air combined with a sunny lemon. Filled the glass, nice golden with a super huge white foamy head. Taste was good, lemony and light with usual yeast accompaniment. Palate was enjoyable and smooth. Overall I liked this very much, more so than their dbl. An excellent first beer of the day.

Poured a hazy yellow. Very carbonated which lead to a large head. Spicy beginning which leads to a very dry finish. Not really what I look for in a beer.

Shared w/ Juart. Pours a slightly hazy golden color. Lots of effervescent carbonation. A small white head that disappears quickly but leaves some nice lacing. Aroma is a pretty heavy malty nose for a tripel. Butterscotch sweetness with just a hint of fruity esters. The flavor is much more like a tripel. Dry and fruity with a little caramel and a nice balance of bitterness. The body is pretty rich with tons of carbonation. Decent. Much better than the dubbel.

This seems to be a bit underrated here--I think it’s a solid triple. A bit of citrus and a good dose of carmel malts. Floral hop finish. Quite tasty in my book.

750 mL bottle. Golden, slightly cloudy pour with a massive white fizzy head. Aroma of bananas, yeast and faint spices. Taste of Belgian yest, citrus and coriander, with a nice full clean finish.

Cloudy amber, nearly opaque, floaties. Sparse sudsy head and little apparent carbonation. No lacing. Fascinating menagerie of aromas: lime leaf, caramel, black pepper, barnyard, pina colada, allspice and ginger. Tropical fruit flavors- pineapple/honeydew/plantain/coconut- lightly sweet, spicy, and yeasty. Almost syrupy viscosity. After swallowing, the flavor evolves into toasted nut and caramel, and then a more intense butterscotch and candy corn. Long caramel aftertaste, sticky sweet and a little tingly. Less sugar and more bitterness would be a vast improvement. Hoppy dry finish, my ass.

Bottle Hazy golden pour with huge white head and good lacing. Aroma of banana, bit of hops and lemon. Flavor has a bit of banana and lemon too, not as much on the hops. Smooth. Very well hidden alcohol.
