Sep 8, 2008 Bottle… RBSG ‘08… Murky, apple juice colored ale with a small, creamy, white head. Spicy, fruity aroma provides instances of clove, pear and banana. Full-bodied with nearly-dead carbonation. Sweet, fruity flavor. Lengthy, sweet, fruity finish with just a hint of bitterness in the aftermath.

Sep 21, 2008 1 L bottle: Pours a hazy copper bronze with a stringy-lacing white head. Aroma of sweet biscuity pale malts with a touch of clove and orange zest along with good Belgian yeastiness. Body starts fairly full and sweet with a good spice and bitter balance with a nice light fruity character before a bready yeasty finish. A pretty good and true to style tripel.

Jun 28, 2008 1 L flip-top bottle. Very hazy blonde-golden colour. Aroma is fruity and sweet. Soft chewy sweet clove and banana along with a bit of peppery spiciness. Flavour is quite sweet and fruity, but it’s pretty nice. Lightly minty.

Jan 23, 2008 Bottle from PUB’N. Turnid deep gold pour with multiple effervescent streams and a frothy, white head. The aroma is citric, floral, spicy, with some candi sugar and apricots. The palate is firm, lively, and well balanced, with flavors of apricot, candi sugary malt, floral spices, and hops. This one got better and better as I finished it, making me crave another. Another awesome brew from Scott Smith.

Aug 11, 2008 Thanks to Larry for bringing this bottle by! Poured hazy peach with just a dusting of white head. The aroma picked up toasty paler malts surrounded by brighter, alcohol-infused pear-like sweetness.. aiight. The flavor was spicy and rather hot with pale malts and lighter fruits at the core.. dry black peppery spices surrounded.. finished with peppery alcohol. Medium-bodied and warm throughout the mouth.. lots of spicage.. just OK.
