Amber color with a white head. Nice smell is earthy, grainy with a bubble gum sweetness. Medium bodied. Has a mildly sweet pale malt, spicy yeasty flavor. Finish is on the dry side. Nice label shows a troll holding a brewski...Enjoyable. 5197

Bottle, bought @ Utobeer, London. Enjoyed in Stansted Airport.
Pours muddy orange with a big, frothy, off-white head. Wonderful aroma, lots of fruit. Yeast, oranges, pineapple and grapes. Fine, creamy mouthfeel. Flavour is lightly tart, quite hoppy, lightly warming. Great pineapple, apple, citrus and oranges. Some coriander and pepper. But especially the hoppiness lifts this above the crowd.

This one exploded. The yeast just misted through the whole bottle, and the pour is a dirty blonde with a still suspension of particles obscuring it. Dandelion and sourish adhesive aroma. Coriander. Brown spices, surprisingly pungent and damp; cardamom, mace, and maybe turmeric. Salt, and some brown sugar. Lots of variables, some of them pretty unique. It has some appealing dirtiness and farm-like textures that spin it in a Fantome vein every so often.

Bitter and dry pithy citrus and green spice flavors. A certain golden dry graininess seems more in line with sunflower seeds and the earthiest of wildflower honeys than it does with the sweetened dough and candi sugar crunch of a prototypical example. The haze of mystery is heavy. Vinous textures are deep, surprisingly, as the dryness here at times seems quite tannic and wooden. The flavors of hazelnuts, almonds, and pistachios really do a fantastic job of making the dryness of the beer soft and earthy, and bitter enough to sidestep the sugary, syrupy flavors that are a bit disdainful to me; likewise, there’s a delicate floral quality and enough sourish funk to make it interesting beyond its already complicated exteriors.

Wildflower honey texture. Soft and bright. Gentle carbonation and a medium-full palate. The departures here take positive directions, and it’s overall very pleasant; a fine effort from a fine brewery.

Hazed golden to light brown pour with a moderate but good bodied head. Aromas of yeast and floral hops. Not as fruity a nose as other triples. Fine mouth feel, but far from bold. Quite hoppy for a triple. Somewhat of a stretch of this style as it doesn’t have the fruit and spice I associate with triples. Yet, nicely done. Some sweetness in the mouth filling flavor but not dominant at all. There are some subtle spices. It’s a hoppier than the average triple with a good yeast blast. Alcohol, spice and fruits are there, just hard to discern. An interesting triple.

Pours a hazy orange with some sidiment seen. Small head. Not much aroma here. Few hops, sweet but not overly. Some citrus. Very enjoyable beer. A+

Pour is a hazy yellow with a small white head. Aroma is sweet and creamy with some citrus fruit. Flavor is sort of bland and boring. Some grain and sweet malts but very bland and almost flat. Maybe this is a bad bottle as so many others rated this high but as it is this is not a good triple.
