| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 18, 2008 Bomber from the rip and run. Pours a crisp glowing gold in the glass with a ephemeral white head. No lacing. No legs. Nose is mostly malts and hints of spicy citrus. Body is fleetingly medium and alcohol well hidden, yet the beer needs a bit more depth for a self proclaimed "Triple" Easy drinking, and certainly a much needed muscle relaxer after the start of wood splitting season. finish is bland and quick. fishingnet (1047), Brandon, Florida, USA

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 11, 2008 Light copper, slight creamy white head fades completely rather quickly. Aroma is cotton candy sweet, with some apricot fruit and light spice. Flavor is a match. The apricot fruitiness saves this a bit, but overall, just so-so. A bit of yeast driven phenolics are blended into the spice (chamomille?) as well. alexanderj (2294), Chino Hills, California, USA

Aroma was dominated by spice; a solid amount of Belgian yeast wit a little bit of fruit and dough. Flavor had a toasty, bready malt base with some candi sugar. Some floral and yeasty elements that gave way to a huge amount of spice. and pepper LIngers on the palate with a touch of herbs. Alcohol well hidden. Not bad tasting at all, but not really what I look for in the style. MaltDawg (819), Richmond, Virginia, USA

Poured clear golden color with a medium frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Complex aroma of yeasty and sour citrus. Body was medium with a sticky texture and soft carbonation. Flavor was sweet & tart citrus with a medium bittersweet smooth finish of moderate duration. Good, not great beer. TheBeerGod (3177), Newport News, Virginia, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 26, 2008 Bottle. Soft amber pour. Tall sticky white head. Nose is very spicy and peppery. Spicy hops, white pepper, sweet malts, and yeast notes. Taste is also strong peppery spices, yeast notes, spicy hops and malt. A little too one-sided with regards to the spices. Begins to sweeten a bit as it warms. Body is medium with some slickness and lighter than expected carbonation tingle. Finishes with more spicy and bitter hops, Belgian yeast notes, peppery spices, and floral notes, Some sweet malt and dried fruits come through too. Not bad but a bit one-dimensional.
