Sampled Kerberos and for a Tripel named after a three headed hellhound I think it was missing some umph. Pale yellow body, micro lip of foam some spice, lemon peel, yeast and a need for a stronger malt presence.

Slightly hazed, amber/gold appearance with a small white head and little lacing. Yeasy aroma full of spices and tangy fruit. Medium bodied, well carbonated mouthfeel supports the sweetness. Additional flavors of yeast, herbal hops, peppery spices and a moderate alcohol burn. Lingering, spicy finish.

Bought at Liquor Stop in Highland, IN. Flying Dog strikes me as an iffy brewer, sometimes on target, other times... Well, this is an other time. Not a bad look, a golden body with a short bubbly head. The aroma, however, is akin to a sweet nail polish. The taste is sweet pale malt, alcohol, and a suggestion of fruit. It finishes on an odd, bitter alcohol note. Eh?

In the 4-pack from Beertopia. Pours a very very dark gold with no head and no carbonation. Mild lemon and yeasty aroma. Flavor is far too sickly sweet to enjoy. This is one dog that won’t hunt. No thank you.

Pours hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma is faint light malts and spice. Taste is fairly light as well, but of light malts with a slight bitter finish and slight fruity notes. Not bad.

Bouteille de 12 oz achetée chez Finger Lakes Beverage Center (Ithaca, NY). Arôme: Odeur d’épices avec une pointe d’alcool fruité. Apparence: La couleur est blonde pâle avec une très faible densité de bulle. Saveur: Léger goût d’agrumes et d’alcool. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement huileuse. Moyenne effervescence en bouche. Légère présence d’agrumes en arrière goût. (Rating #2102)

Bottle. Pours hazy golden with a tiny white head, that diappears quickly. Nose of Citrus, yeast and caramel.Sweet flavour with fruit, caramel and spices. Medium bodied. Ends up more dry with a somewhat medical taste. Not the most tasty from flying dog.
