| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Jul 30, 2009 Bomber. Deep gold body with a slightly off-white, fizzy head, mostly diminishing. The aroma of spicy with clove. Notes of husky grain and orange and just a hint of nail polish remover, something that shows up more in the taste. The flavor is moderately sweet and lightly bitter. It finishes moderately sweet and lightly to moderately bitter and avoids the tendency of many tripels to be over-the-top sweet, though it gets close and is too sweet for a tripel. There is nail polish remover taste in the finish that seems accentuated by alcohol/clove flavors. Medium body, velvety texture and lively carbonation. A fairly average tripel that fails to deliver distinct flavors. arrogantb (700), Denver, Colorado, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 30, 2009 Very nice hazy orange without much head to speak of. The smell is very, very good. nice fruits and some chocolate, all kinds of great aromas. The taste is nice and fruity, candied sugar and grapes. Not much alcohol showing up in this. I assume this beer is about two years old now considering they just celebrated their 5th anniversary. It has held up very well and I think I like it better than the fresh GF tripel I had some months back.

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jul 24, 2009 Bottle sample at the Green Flash/New Holland tasting at Blacklick Wine & Spirits on 7.23.09. Semi-cloudy orange color with a huge off-white head. Aroma of Belgian yeast that is light on the banana and pleasant. Also some sweet malt and hops in there. Sweet malt flavor with some alcohol, a bit of hop and some fruit. Pretty good for a style I typically don’t care for. skmikeg (72), Poway, California, USA
