Sep 12, 2008 Slightly cloudy orange amber. Fizzy with a thin head. Fruity aroma - apples, citrus, banana, and spice over malty base. Flavor is fruit and spice, followed by a strong malty presence. Ends dry and bitter, with a notable hoppiness. Fizzy, sticky (but somewhat thin) mouthfeel. Not bad, but a little out of balance.

Sep 11, 2008 Bottle (12oz). Clear amber-tinged gold, very small frothy head (3-). Smells pretty good, actually - apple, pear, yeast, light alcohol, candi sweetness and enough floral character to get noticed. Tastes quite decent too - like the aroma, a little more alcohol warmth which seems to balance out the sweet/bitter ratio a bit, although it is a tad weak in the body, slick on the tongue and only modestly carbonated, although there’s a nice lip-smacking dry spicy/yeasty pungency in the linger. Pretty solid, really.

Sep 6, 2008 Bottle. A good beer with a strange yet very pleasant aftertaste. Pours with a diminishing head and orange in color. Aromas of straw, toffee, citrus, orange, banana, and pineapple. Full body with a creamy texture. Easy to drink and would purchase again.
stankenk (130), Maplewood, Minnesota, USA
Sep 5, 2008 Pours a golden hazy yellow. The nose is malts, fruity, & subtle notes of bubble gum. Comes across the palate with a strong bite of fruit then vanishes. It had a faint lingering subtle after taste. Overall a well done Tripel; just a bit dry.
