 Gr0ve (1382), Oslo, Norway
May 27, 2009 355 ml bottle. Deep orange golden colour. Small white head. Subtle malty aroma with some Belgian yeast character. Spicy flavours with hints of black pepper and fennel. Slick texture. Carbonation level is surprisingly low for a tripel. Nice rounded maltiness. Floral hop flavours, but they are well hidden. An OK tripel, but not particularly interesting.

May 26, 2009 Tallahassee, Fl - Market Square Liquors - 7 oz bottle - part of a 8-pak mixer of their hiugh gravity beers. Medium orange pour, slightly cloudy - very brief white head. Fairly neutral aroma with a hint of spent grain. Flavor has a touch of booziness to it, a touch of honey, some amaretto accents and not much else.Slightly muddled mouthfeel. Overall, below par.
gunhaver (1024), Tampa, Florida, USA
May 24, 2009 Bottle, courtesy someone. Clear golden yellow pour, some wet lacing and head. Some yeastiness int he nose, cotton candy, banana and clove, some dry grain. Grain and yeast flavors, banana and slight bubblegum. Thick bodied, full of flavor but not too complex. Not bad at all.

May 14, 2009 This was not a good example of what a tripel should be. It was not balanced, with yeast dominating the palate. Eh, I like Flying Dog, but this is one I don’t have an interest in trying again. LC

May 12, 2009 Bottle, 12oz. It pours a next to clear, golden body under a small, white head. Some banana and a little hops and spices on the nose. Some alcohol evident too. Banana, citrus, some spicey notes and pale malts in the mouth. Quite warm, full-bodied and dry, yet with a sweet impression. Bitter finish. A bit on the sweet side, but I liked it quite a lot. Nice bitterness. (090430)
