Aug 5, 2009 7 oz bottle. Nose is heavily candied, lightly fruity and flowery. Heavy body, not as yeasty as expected, grapes and apricots. A good effort by Flying Dog, but the sweetness overwhelms the other flavors.
Elwood (667), Leesburg, Virginia, USA
Aug 4, 2009 Serving: 12 oz. bottle.
Appearance: Pale orange with a foamy, white head.
Aroma: Off cooked vegetables, over ripe orange, alcohol, and a light perfume note.
Taste: Sweet, ripe oranges, hot alcohol, dust, light bitterness, and fusel notes.
Palate: Medium-high carbonation with a light body. Bone dry mouthfeel on the first sip. Medium finish with some boozy orange lingering.
Overall: Out of balance on the sweet side and too much alcohol on the tongue. There are much better examples out there.

Aug 2, 2009 Golden color and standard big bubble head. . Yeast and fruits in aroma. Taste was not really impressive. Yeast, spices, that slight hop taste that all tripels have. Nothing that impressed my face off.

Jul 31, 2009 Poured a golden color with thin head. Aroma of yeast and spice. Flavor had clove, orange peel, yeast, and a mild dry and bitter finish. The flavors were there, but just not enough.
