daleharshman (703) - San Diego, California, USA - JUL 22, 2009
Tap at Stone Sour Fest 2009. Pours a dark amber with brownish tones -- does not look like a tripel at all. Aroma of brett and sweet malt. The light sweetness resembles a tripel, but the flavor is mostly a sharp tartness with some funk thrown in. Has good carbonation and a lemon-lime soda like finish.
