Bottle batch #33 poured a clear golden amber with a minimal lingering light amber ring of foam. Aromas of carmel, apple cider, pears, light toffee and a hint of spice. Palate was light to medium bodied and crisp. Flavors ofcarmel, light pear, light apple and a hint of spice with a crisp bittersweet finish.
Aged way better than I expected!

Jul 15, 2008 Bouteille de 355 ml, bu à Volo à Toronto, le 12/7/08. Rousse un peu brumeuse, pas de collet. Arome d’épice sûrette, malte caramelisé. Goût très sûrette, notes de bétrave, un peu épicé et pas très malté. Un triple bizzard, point!

Jun 29, 2008 Bottle. It pours a clear, copper body with a small, off-white head. Sweetish, flowery nose with caramel and nuts, notes of roasted malt and a touch of alcohol. Sweet and sugary in the mouth, with caramel, some alcohol and pepper and Brazilian pepper. Medium to full body, rather sweetish and a bit biting mouthfeel. Lasting sweet and peppery finish. The flavor grows better and better as you drink it, and it’s one of the strangest tripels I’ve had. But nice! (080509)

Jun 29, 2008 Cant really see why this beer is scaled as a tripel besides what the label says.
From the bottle pours a hazy reddish beer with a medium white head. Very earthy and dusty nose from the beets and a spicy crisp from the rose pepper with some malt and hops. Flavour is spicy but the beets is from sure there too. Its pretty weird but in some way I like it very much.
