SCBrew (31), San Clemente, California, USA Sep 4, 2008 Pours a hazy light gold color with a tight white head. Very sweet, pilsen malt aroma with a small amount of hop pushing through, surrounded by yeasty fruitiness. Seemingly light body for 9%with moderate carbonation and heavy lacing. Citrus hop flavors surrounded by candy sweetness. Decent amount of alcohol warming at the back of the tounge and throat. BelgianBeerGal (1275), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Sep 3, 2008 75cl bottle via trade with 1 2many. Just a really interesting beer that combines a tripel and an IPA perfectly. Hazy, cloudy gold colour with a big white head and sticky lacing.Big fruity hops in the aroma. Flavour is more citrus hops built on a malty backbone and just a hint of tripel spice. 9ABV barely noticeable, which is dangerous with a 750. dchmela (1406), Orlando, Florida, USA Sep 3, 2008 Tap at the The Thirsty Monk Asheville. Pours a cloudy gold with a huge white head. Sweet malt and lots of spicy hops and maybe a touch of pepper. Taste is malty with spicy hops that give it a nice bite. Crisp and easy drinking, this was wonderful. padrefan98 (787), (San Diego) Santee, California, USA Aug 31, 2008 On tap at Downtown Johnny Browns. Yay I am finally through with my one month sobriety. Lots of hops and the belgian yeast I love. Very good. mmmbeer (737), Austin, Texas, USA Aug 30, 2008 75 cl bottle poured into trappist glass- poured cloudy golden yellow like wheat straw laying freshly cut, one finger white head slowly disappeared to become clumps on the liquid surface and laced heavily, high-medium carbonation. Aroma of yeast, wheat malt, and unbaked cookie dough. Hits the mouth with a high-light body, malt is light and airy, spices come in immediately and are very enjoyable, sweetness in the background throughout, late middle and finish has nice hop profile. Worth every penny that I spent on it! KyotoLefty (1371), Kyoto, Japan Aug 27, 2008 Updated: Sep 1, 2008Take a Westmalle Tripel, add tons of hops, dry hop, and shake it up. This is it. A very good tripel, hopped to hell like an American Imperial IPA. this is amazing. Great aroma with citrus, Belgian yeast, golden malt. Flavor doesn’t let down. This was a good new idea. Chipper (179), Red Lion, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 24, 2008 Pours a lemon yellow with a huge white head. Aroma had hops, spice, and little sweetness. Flavor was very well balanced with the hops present but still a little sweet. A great brew. CapFlu (3480), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Aug 23, 2008 (750ml) Thanks MartinT! Large white foamy head with a banana clouded body. Tart hops and yeast battle, amarillo bottom. Flavour leads with hops and malt, lemon. Flashes of tart hops. Lovely stuff.
