A good Belgian tripel. Not super memorable, but tasty. Pours a nice clearish orange with a white head. Smells slightly of orange cream. Taste is similar, a creamy orange beer with some heft. Slightly sour Orange peel in the finish. Had on tap at Mill Valley BeerWorks.

Draught at Mugs BK. Aroma is orchard, earth, light yeast. Flavor is apple flesh and skin, with a nice yeast, element, vinous, and subtle spice. sweet but well balanced. Nice creamy feel turns dry and quite tannic. didn’t like it at first sip but this one is growing on me.

Bottle with Sean, and Pat before the show. Poured a cloudy golden orange color, huge off white head with great lacing. Aromas are mostly biscuit with some caramel, pancakes, cereal, and other malty flavors. Taste was the same with a slight citrus flavor from the hops, candy sugar, and a belgian grape quality. This beer kicked our ass.

I had this on tap at a local resturant. Once I saw that is was Belguim Trippel I had to try it. Great flavor with a nice sweet finish, making it hard to beleive has a 11% alcohol rating. Worth every penny.

UPDATED: MAR 25, 2012 A punch in the nose of wheat implying banana with pepper and yeast. Deep Belgian orange with frothy tan head and lace. This one’s about two years old, and has plenty of floaters as a result. Syrup sweet flavor which is balanced by hopping as promised. Moreover, this isn’t a candied sugar bomb; it’s a sugar and hop bomb. Very dense body that has the feel of a quad if not the appearance. In fact, this beer’s looks are very fooling. Hard to take lightly though, so the warning is not needed.

25.4 oz bottle. Foggy orange with a big fluffy white head. Nose is honey and yeast, slight floral and citrus. Borderline syrupy with prickly carb that turns foamy. Taste is apricot, butterscotch and grass finishing bitter to balance the candi. Simple with a subtle complexity; alcohol barely apparent. Nice brewing.

3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
bottle. Pours a hazy golden yellow, with very sizable foamy white head. Aroma has notes of sweet spices, lemon, bread, honey oats. Medium bodied, lively carbonation, pretty hard to believe its 10% the way it drinks. Flavor is very spicy, with various bread notes, very soft sourdough underlying the sweet spices, with a generally dry finish, perhaps a touch of white grape, zesty spices, cracker.
