MaxPower (961), St. Louis, Missouri, USA May 6, 2005 750 ml capped bottle, pours a cloudy bright golden yellow with a nice creamy white lasting head that leaves good lacing. Flowery citrus and spicy aromas. Fruity pear, apple, vanilla and pepper flavors, very dry and crisp finish. Medium to full bodied with a full yet crisp mouthfeel, alcohol very well hidden.
Jerre (1399), Waregem, Belgium Aug 13, 2007 Bottle, 33 cl. Little cloudy, deep golden color, with a nice creamy white head that leaves good lacing. Aroma a bit spicy, yeast, flowery hops. Between medium en full body. Taste = start a bit sweet, fruity, good bitterness, love the great balance with the little spicy touch, dry finish. Fine tripel to drink. Nuffield (2541), Roseville, Minnesota, USA Apr 3, 2005 Hazy yellow/golden/orange with huge, frothy, irregular head and good lacing. Yeasy, spicy, banana, clove. Frothy, easy drinking and lightly effervescing palate. Really strong on many dimensions and a really fine beer to drink. Mine was a "Goliath" bottle. Kevin (1765), Colorado, USA Apr 2, 2005 cloudy yellow with a white head. sour yeast aroma with some dirt. spicey taste that is earthy with dark fruits. silky enveloping flavors. love the spices. StewardofGondor (1934), Washington Heights - Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Jun 13, 2005 A little haze with a glowing amber color. Has a head that hovers at a quarter of an inch, and is foamy, bubbly and white. Nice lacing as well. Smells like a farmhouse yeast conjecture. Some banana bread in the aroma and some effervescent lemons. Hits the palate and makes a nice first impression. Carbonation subsides to a creamy effervescent tingle. Hints of candi sugar manifest, bringing the flavor to evolve into something that reminds me of one of those buttered Christmas cookies in the pretzel shape that comes out of those seasonal tins. Nice and creamy with pervasive fullness. Really good stuff here. Thanks to JPDISPO for bringing this to the party!
