PJClarke (608), London, Greater London, England Nov 20, 2008 A bright sparkling golden beer. A creamy white head. Bread and bananas appear from the yeast along with light citrus hints. Smooth and sweet with a tang at the back of the throat. Fresh pine-wood flavours with a lot more banana and a tight, prickly finish.

I have misplaced my comments for this beer oreogobbler (216), Austin, Texas, USA Oct 24, 2008 Pours a completely transparent golden yellow, thin foamy head, heavily carbonated.
Musky banana aroma along with some peaches and sour dough.
Sweet candy fruit flavor, banana, peaches, apricot, and caramel. I also get some musky yeast flavor in the finish, sour even. Interesting.
Palate is full and sweet, a little sour but mellows into a caramel finish. hayduke (1616), Eureka, California, USA Oct 24, 2008 On tap in Paris, France. This came in the proper labeled trappist glass a clear gold color and fat white head that left good lacing. Big nose of caramel malts with citrus hops, coriander, and cloves. Very smooth and clean mouthfeel. Flavor is banana and citrus, and the finish is very lightly bitter and tasty. Good beer. fata2683 (835), Panama City, Florida, USA Oct 24, 2008 Bottle, pours crystal clear gold with a white head. Smells like vanilla and sugar. Taste is light with some sweetness and very light bitterness. Light carbonation. Not that great. TheJollyOne (203), Kofu, Japan Oct 22, 2008 Pale gold body over a frothy, well lasting head. Many tiny particles supended within. Smells of banana, sugar, toffee, and a bit of yeast. Taste began quite sweet with roasted toffe and a hint of banana. Soon turns to bitter hops with grasses and straw. Average finish. Not unpleasant. Bubbly and medium on the palate. Solid beer for introducing your friends to foreign brew. punkrkr27 (606), Berkley, Michigan, USA Oct 22, 2008 Clear light gold pour with a 1 finger white head. Strong bubblegum esters with notes of clove, candi sugar, straw, grass and orange. Flavor is a softer banana, clove and bubblegum mix than the aroma suggests with hints of honey, white grape juice and a faintly floral finish. Medium thin body with heavy carbonation. Really seems like a dumbed down version of a proper Belgian tripel.
