207ml Bottle. Pours light golden honey colour with a fizyy white head that is gone in seconds. Nose a tad unpleasant with an aroma of corn flakes and a musty, earthy overtone that reminds me of an old, abondoned house. Flavour is better, grainy and sweet, but still with that corn flake presence in the background. This was a disappointment considering that all the other Flying Dog beers I have tried have been good, but this is pretty underwhelming.

Bottle via Bonster in trade. Boy this was pretty in the glass. Mounded head of tan on the crisp bold golden, steady carbonation. This was an easy drinking triple with a good bit of gusto behind it. Body was lighter than I expected. Spices, yup got em. sweet candi sugar, got em. but a three headed dog htat guards the gates of hell? Nope, this brew aint from Avery. Thanks Bonster!

This bottled brew from a bottle shop poured a small sized head of foamy fine to medium sized off-white colored bubbles that were mostly diminishing and left behind a hazy typically carbonated dark yellow colored body. The mild aroma was bready mild hop dough and mild floral. The crisp mouth feel was tingly at the start and at the finish with a medium vinous aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of mild hops mildly vinous and candy. A decent one that I would consider buying again.

Delicious. Had it on tap at Rattle and Hum in NYC. Poured a rich, slightly cloudy gold. Aromas of cloves, flowers and spices. Very sweet and smooth.

Cloudy orange/gold color with a very thin white head and sparse sudsy lacing. Aroma of vanilla, spices, some coriander, and resins with hints of alcohol. Mouthfeel is fizzy, flavor also has coriander and some spicy hops. Not the best Tripel, and below average for this brewery.
