| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 26, 2007 Looks like they really got this one. Delicate aroma that shows a hint of phenol, plus apple skins and banana and a background of doughy yeastiness. Also something of a sugary breadiness. There’s just a delicate fruity bready spiciness to this aroma that really works. Lightly hazy golden amber color, foamed up quickly on the pour but faded just as quickly. Aah, right at the front of the mouth I get it. Fluffy airy palate with a burst of juicy sweetness right behind the crackling carbonation. There’s more raw sugar in the flavor than aroma, but its never sticky because the mouthfeel is right on. Spicy yeastiness contributes a modicum of complexity, though it could be more so. Finish is semi-dry, and reveals virtually none of its alcoholic strength. This is my first Brooklyn beer since 2002 (and more regularly since 2001) and its clear I’ve missed them. npdempse (931), St. Petersburg, Florida, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 25, 2007 Clear, straw-colored, with a big white head. Classic tripel nose--honey sweet, with oranges, a decent amount of spice: coriander, anise, and black pepper. Flavor is rather sweet, almost syrupy, with a spicey black-pepper finish and a dry nutty bitterness. A little too effervescent. Darkover (1318), Columbus, Ohio, USA

Lively carbonation. Very fruity (orange and apricot), yeasty and spicy (mainly coriander) with notes of vanilla. Alcohol is discreet, just mild touch in the finish. Typical, decent and enjoyable BSA.

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 31, 2007 (Bottle Number 0267) This is the way I like most Belgian style beers. I like them to be light, airy, refreshing, dryish, and yeasty, I really enjoy this beers light body considering its a 9% ABV beer. The palate is crisp, yeasty, spicy, and slightly acidic. I seem to be going against the grain, but I like this beer . It is nice to see Brooklyn doing some brewing and bottling now, hopefully this trend will continue. YogiBeera (2437), Hamburg, Germany
