Dec 26, 2006 22oz. bomber. Lightly hazed amber color with a medium sized off white head. Aroma is yeasty and spicy, with just a touch of musty, wet grass. Flavor was lightly sweet malt, floral hops, a bit of citrus and a touch of grassiness.

Dec 23, 2006 bomber split three ways. Pours a relatively clear amber..small off white head. Aroma is light spices, malts. Taste is lightly spicy and malty, light hops and alcohol in the finish.

Dec 23, 2006 22 oz bomber. Pours a hazy light gray/orange color with a medium white head. Aroma is floral with a hint of lemon and of freshly mowed grass. Taste is floral and rosy with spicy hops. Not bad, but nothing spectacular here.

Dec 22, 2006 Updated: Dec 23, 2006Bottle shared by my friend Brian. Pours golden amber with white head, and good retention. A somewhat weak aroma for a triple, but I pick up some faint yeast and spicy hops. Flavor of pear, citrus zest and wheat malt. This transitions to a clove and faint white pepper spiciness before the mild hoppy finish. Some chalky texture on the finish. Not too bad. There is nothing wrong with thinking outside the box when brewing a Tripel.

Dec 19, 2006 Poured an orange/yellow; medium white head. Very clear. Aroma of citrus, hops and sweet malt. Surprised by lack of yeast present. Flavor strange for the style. Middle dominated by malt. Would have liked more yeast.Some hops, sugar and pine flavor. Enjoyed it, but not good representation of style.

Dec 19, 2006 Pours a yellow/gold, very clear, with a soft white head. Citrus nose with a light hop character and faint spiciness. Sweet fruity citrus character up front with a lightly dry finish and light spiciness. Not as dry or spicy as most belgian tripels, could use a bit more carbonation to liven up the palate and could use a bit more yeast character to really bring the finish a bit more character.

Dec 17, 2006 Large white head of fine bubbles. Reduces slowly with good carbonation. Smoky? aroma with some sweet malts and yeast. Little grassy also. Color is a gright orange. Sweet and roasty. Little fruit and spice. The roastyness is out of place for this style. Good tasting brew just not what I would call a triple. Finish is a little dry with a slight bitterness. A decent brew.
