Commercial Description:
Rich pale malt flavors provide a solid base for zesty Styrian Golding and Czech Saaz hopping. Trappist ale yeast contributes the fruity, spicy profile of classic, monk-brewed, Belgian ales. Our Trippel is luscious, fiery, golden brew and a contemporary rendition of traditional Belgian Trippel.

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.

22 oz bomber. Hazy yellow to orange color with off white head. The aroma was sweet sugar and lots of hops. Interesting flavor. A bit too bright at the sweet and hoppy ends of the palate spectrum. The sweetness is slightly fruity and candy sugar. The hops are pine and grass. The mixture of flavor notes don’t work together too well. I get an odd tartness in the after taste. Overall it was a bit disappointing.

Courtesy of Ibrew2or3. Thanks, Dave. <P> Body is a golden orange and holds a thumb thick lasting white head. <P> Aroma is sweet white fruit, yeast and a massive (for the style) hop presence. Some light herbal and dried black tea notes as well. <P> Fore is again sweet white fruit, black tea, lotsa hops and fairly noticeable alcohol. It’s clearly got the hallmarks of a Belgian beer, but it’s so hoppy it’s distracting. It’s not satisfying as a hoppy beer or as a Belgian ale.

22oz bottle (Trippel Label - not the 3rd Anniversary Label). Poured a medium golden / amber color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of fruits, spices (kinda of peppery), citrus, and light yeast. For some reason Ham came to mind (maybe because I’m hungry - Damn, now I’m craving a Ham sandwich). Tastes of fruits, light spices, honey, and a little bready (what would a Ham sandwich be without bread). Not overly sweet (a problem I find with the majority of USA made Tripels). Alcohol content well hidden.

Thanks to IBrew2or3. Golden orange pour nice white head. Aroma is very hoppy. Flavor is sweet hops, orange citrus mostly with grapefruit and pine also coming through. This beer taste dry hopped to hell and back, hops dominate the whole thing and nothing else really comes through. Not really on with the style, it just didn’t seem right.

An orange beer with an orange head. The aroma is very hoppy and grassy, and also has notes of yeast. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of yeast and light notes of coriander. I is weird how hoppy the aroma is - both for the style and compared to the flavor.

So i had the 2nd half of kems pint of this fine brew while finishing up at the liars club. Lots of bannana in this, lots, and some decent citrus. I didint get a whole lot of spice in it, just a ton of fruit and some egg whites, weird. Solid brew.
