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.

Bottle from VA. Clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Earthy herbal and fruit aroma and taste with a sweet peach like taste to the finish.

12 oz. bottle. Clear, golden color. Thin, bubbly head that dissipates quickly. Aroma of bananas and candi sugars. Sweet flavor with citrus notes, pepper, and some grass. Finish is dry with some lingering bitterness.

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.

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.

Pours a rather typical but still inviting golden-amber with a thick, fluffy, white head. Aroma is thick and malty with a hint of honey. Flavor is very satisfying, malty and just a little bit sweet but not cloying. Texture is exceptionally smooth, and it goes down very well. Delicious!

12oz bottle. Poured a medium golden color wtih a smaller sized white head. Aromas of spiced apples, fruity, and yeasty. Tastes of the same fruitiness and very light spices. Tastes on the thinner side as was the body. Alcohol content well hidden.

Bottle. Syrupy thicking looking golden beer. The aroma is lightly spiced and vinous, and the flavour is deeply mulled, lightly roasted and mildly spiced. Overall a nice strong beer.
