Beerman6686 (1263), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 19, 2008 Poured a gldeon yellow/orange color with an off white head. Aroma was very strange, some sort of spice and garbage flavor? Flavor was much the same, maybe we got an infected btach but this stuff was bad. PaulHegedus (458), Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Oct 18, 2008 Draught at City Beer, in Soma district of San Francisco, July 2008. What a fantastic, complex beer. Bartender called it a tripel. Internet calls it a hyrbid IPA/tripel. Poured golden orange in a small taster glass. Tasted citrus and banana in the hops. blklab2007 (932), Connecticut, USA Oct 17, 2008 22 oz bottle poured into a tulip has a copper yellow color and a thin white head that diminished quickly. aroma has spices, light citrus hops, nice floral yeast, candy sugar, over ripe dark fruit, flowery pollens, and dough. mouth feel is light with hefty biting carbonation. flavor is really unique and interesting. there is some upfront bitterness, spices, hefty yeast, and underlying hops that get drowned out a bit. sweetness is just enough to keep the bitters in check, dough, and alcohol. certainly an interesting marriage of styles and flavors hopdog (5525), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 17, 2008 22oz bottle. Poured a deeper and hazy golden color with a larger sized white head. Aromas of spices, citrus, floral, fruity, and some grassiness. Tastes of citrus, pine, fruity, spices, bread, and earthy. Alcohol content hidden. Some lacing left on the glass. Hank1980 (732), Athens, Georgia, USA Oct 17, 2008 Bottle shared at Trapppeze. Pours hazy gold with a big white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, hops, spice. Pretty interesting. Taste is a liitte sour, with more hop bitterness, and yeast. Overall, this hoppy trippel is a nice smooth drinker. Body is light and carbonated. GuilTTy (527), Cherry Hill, New Jersey, USA Oct 16, 2008 Bottle. Sampled at the Stock Market’s Wasting Craft Beer Tasting in Voorhees, NJ. Hazy orange under a generous and long-lasting off white head. Slightly sour but solidly citrus aroma that is very intriguing. Initially, the sweeter Trippel flavor profile pops out but it soon plays second fiddle to the more aggressive West Coast piney, citrusy, grapefruit hops. Sweetness grabs more attention again in the finish. Smooth texture. Perhaps an odd blend of styles but they play well with one another better than you might expect. Worth a try.
