OnTap Looks kinda dark for a tripel, its a hazy orange with a big fluffy head. Aroma of citrus, and yeasts,with a touch of hops. Flavor is very smooth for a tripel. This is dangerously easy drinking for a beer of 8%. Sweet aftertase, a nice overall beer.

A clear orange/amber colored beer, with a white head. It disappears to fast (the beer was served,a little to cold). The aroma is malty, fruity and spicey coriander. The taste is bittersweet, with notes op spices. Some peaches in the back. A pleasant bittersweet aftertaste.

bager (2121) - Copenhagen N, DENMARK - SEP 12, 2006
On tap at Ølbaren (2005). Pours dark golden in colour with a large head. Malty and sweet with notes of caramel. A bit too alcoholic and sweet for me.

jimhilt (2112) - Bow, New Hampshire, USA - DEC 25, 2004
Pours a three-finger head that leaves a good lace. Cloudy amber color. Light-medium carbonation. Medium bodied. Nose is alcohol, starts with some harshness of alcohol, finish is on the sour side not what I was expecting with a triple, their dubbel and quadrupel are better. 750ml bottle for $6.99 from Hoosick St. Discount Bev, Troy, NY.

Dorwart (2110) - Robbinsville, New Jersey, USA - DEC 18, 2002
Lighter and thinner than I expected. Misty orange in color. Slight peach/fruit aroma. Nice head and carbonation throughout. Trace of head lingers for a while. Light to medium body with very little aftertaste. Did not notice the alcohol as prominent as some of the other reviewers. A good beer but from what I have read there are many others that are better.
