3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
(Old BA rate - bottle)
Poured with a generous two finger bubbly and frothy pure white head; clear, light orangey-yellow hue; decent head retention. Nice spiciness; not nearly as sweet/sugary in the aroma as others in the style; hint of vanilla; touch of booze as well; sweet fresh fruits (green grapes and pears) in the aroma. Pretty solid taste; but not nearly as complex as others in the range; light sweetness; faintly yeasty; flavorful vanilla note; nice enough; warming. Lightish, and a little sticky; very prickly and lively carbonation and very much within the style range. Nice drinking

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A little darker then the "blonde" it seems. More foam and holds very nice. More sour smell then the blonde. Something inside smells like rotten fruit. Fruity but sour taste. Nicely bitter aftertaste. Not a top-beer but drinkeable.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle about 1 year over its "drink by." Almost amber gold with a medium head. Malty aroma, honey and biscuit, tart citrus, with sour oranges and spice. Sweet honey malt flavor, no hops left but a nice, tart tang to balance. Minerals and nice fruit. Would be better fresh, I think, but still a good tripel.
