kiefdog (1826) - Tampa, Florida, USA - JUN 18, 2008
33cl bottle from Total Wine (Jacksonville, FL). Pours a light brown with a tan, creamy head. Aroma is floral in character with notes of a fruit and spice as well. Flavor is complex with notes of a subtle sweetness throughout, hints of honey, raisin, caramel and pepper.

TheGrandMaster (2308) - Auckland, NEW ZEALAND - JUN 14, 2008
UPDATED: JUN 15, 2008 Bottle (in NZ), pours a dark mahogony colour with a large yellowish frothy head. A sweet fruity and carmal malt aroma with just a hint of peppery spice. A full, but quite carbonated mouthfeel. A lot of alcohol on the palate, which is just a little raw for me, dominating the peppery flavour. Reminiscent of a spicy vodka for me - that alcohol comes through just way too strong.

marcus (3776) - Sacramento, California, USA - JUN 13, 2008
This orange ale poured with a thin off-white head that dissipated quickly. There is a strong aroma of candy and caramel malt. The flavor is candy and raisin, with harsh spice and pepper at the finish and lots of carbonation.

redlight (2209) - Winter Park, Florida, USA - JUN 11, 2008
Dark fruits on the nose, prunes, and raisons with candi sugar. Pours a dark blonde almost amber with a thick white head. Caramalized sugars, unrefined sugars, slightly caramelly with light fruits, green raisons, apple skins, malty with a spicy finish. Overall a good beer!

TonyDiUlio (630) - New Jersey, USA - JUN 9, 2008
Nice Tripel, Not too cloudy in the pour, light head, medium color of orange. The aroma and flavor were dominated by a sour apple. Not a bad beer though, i enjoyed it and was glad to find it

tlind2 (815) - Helsinki, FINLAND - JUN 3, 2008
330 ml bottle. Slight cloudy amber color, off-white head that disappeared immediately. Fruity aroma, reasonably bitter taste with sweet malts. Big on carbonation. Not my favorite tripel.
