Pours a cloudy yellow gold with a white head of big bubbles. Aromas of malt and fruit/citrus. Tastes of much more of the same. Clean finish but with some residule sour and slight metallicness.

Sweet triple. Not as spicy as i prefer them to be. So overall a decent triple, but nothing special.

Big, towering head that faded slowly. Pretty dark yellow color. But a very pedestrian tripel overall.

Did not find the alcohol overwhelming but nicely warming on the coldest day so far. Does not have the head it’s brother does.

Bottled(330ml). –Shared with Doggythedog at the Hopdevil in Zagreb
Clear golden coloured, huge white head, lively carbonation, dusty white wine nose. Aroma is malty, faint hoppy and slight spicy with very odd and unpleasant frozen meat touch. Certainly better than Dubbel .

Much better and more flavorful than the dubbel!!! Spicy, sugary fruitcake and chunks of yeast. Long dry finish with a quick dash of firey alcohol at the tail end. Not terribly complex or wonderful, but a nice workout on the palate. Awesome with BBQ chicken kabobs.

Not much in the realm of aroma, but this is one fine looking beer. The head and lace are top notch and the bead is very fine. The palate is dry and spicy with an appetizing bitterness. This beer would make a good aperitif.

Habersham Beverage Warehouse, Savanah, Ga. - 350 ml bottle. Pours a murky, light golden with a fluffy, thick, pillowy white head. Grassy, sweet aroma with hints of spice. Flavor has a lemony tilt to it with brief hints of coriander and maple syrup - odd combnation. Pick up hints of cotton candy and candied sugar in the finish. The combination results in a sort of nut-like mixture which is pleasant, but not taste tempting. Decently thick mouthfeel. Overall an average Tripel.
