750ml bottle. Pours hazy golden, with a huge, thick white head. No joke when I say that the beer should be poured slowly as the thick head lasts quite some time. Spice, and lemon flavors, some yeast in there towards the end.

Ft. Myers, Fl. - Total Wines - 330 ml bottle. Hazy, medium gold pour with a soft, silky white head that hangs around a while. Lemony, spicy aroma. Buttery flavor profile with some lemony accents to perk it up. Hints of honey and nuts throughout. Spritzy mouthfeel, but not too distracting. Yeasty, cluttered finish. Overall, smooth drinking and solid Tripel.

Honey and spice on the nose. pours light blonde with little head. Sweet, some hop spice, honey, crisp, honey malt flavor lingers. Alright, just feels like its missing something?

330 ml. bottle. Pours a cloudy, golden yellowish-orange with a nice whith head that left a good amount of lacing. Aromas of citrus and spice. Fruity citrus and apple flavors with some subtle clove in there as well. This one is slightly sweet but well balanced by some hop bitterness bitterness. Very lively on the palate as well. Yummy!

Poured from a stubby 330ml bottle into a snifter. This presented itself as a valiant citizen of Belgium ... golden orange, hazy and opaque with a mushroom cloud of white foam to cap it off. The first waft gives me an aroma of lemon grass and a sweet fresh springtime air ... very inviting and seductive. The flavor is grand, but light and fruity, almost as sweet as a pineapple fruit cocktail. As I slowly sip it on this cold February night, I want for a warm sunny day in a European cafe with a plate of soft cheese. Superb! (#2677, 2/3/07)

Gorgeous yellow body with perfect white head. Aroma of orange/citrus. Taste is pleasant, although aftertaste is a minor detriment.

Golden-orange body with some visibile yeast and a moderate sudsy, white head. Aroma of bready sweet pale malt with perfumy honeysuckle tones and banana notes. Flavor is drier than anticipated, but has ample dough and perfume qualities. Moderate woody bitterness enhanced by the dryness. Fair and basic golden strong. Not something that would compel me to purchase again.
