Jun 20, 2009 Pours orange with a thin white head. Aroma of the yeast, spices, and a touch of hops. I thought it was a relatively mellow tripel, and I thought the 8.5% was well hidden. A little sweet, decent brew...nothing amazing though.

Jun 15, 2009 This has a strong alcohol flavor. Its aroma tells a story of the impending belgian malt. But it’s a lie. The alcohol is overkill, and its not even that high of a percent. Not my favorite

Jun 11, 2009 (Bottle (2008) from Lou’s Beverage Barn) Pours hazy slightly reddish orange with only a slight head. Looks fairly still. Aroma is quite toned down but there is some light caramel and fruitiness. Mouthfeel is light-medium full with only light carbonation, a little sticky/syrupy in the finish. Very slight rings and curtains of lacing disappear quickly. Sweet flavors of banana, light candy, caramel and fruit with some pepper in the finish. ABV well-hidden. The flavor is more complex and interesting than the aroma but still kind of weak for the style. Pleasant enough beer but really not much of a tripel.

Jun 10, 2009 Pours a dark, slightly opaque golden hue with a thin white head. Aroma smells of yeast, malt, bread, banana, and light apple juice and candy notes. Flavor of malts, yeast, fruits, candy, mild floral hop flavors, caramel, and spices. Body is rather thick with surprisingly low carbonation level. Alcohol is hidden well. Pretty good overall.

Jun 8, 2009 This brew is a slightly cloudy golden orange color with a medium thin white head that dissipates steadily Thin strings of lacing on the glass. The aroma is mildly yeasty with some grass and banana notes. Light body with flavors of subtle yeast and spices along with some grassy and citrus notes. The finish is mildly spicy with some yeast and citrus in the aftertaste. Slightly above average overall.

Jun 7, 2009 Poured from Bottle into Snifter glass.
Pours a clear golden orange with a very fine white head. No real head retention to speak of except for a small white ring around the glass. Aroma has light esters, candi sugar, yeast and some alcohol. Flavor is very sweet upfront and strides into a high alcohol finish but there are some grassy hop notes hidden in there as well. Its medium bodied and slightly syrupy. Not a good representation of a decent tripel at all.
