Bomber. Opaque golden color with dissipating frothy white head. Nose of bananas, clove, spicy hops and yeasty goodness. Flavor is tropical fruits mixed with buttery esters. Mouthfeell is light and soft...with no strong alcohol flavors...makes it very easy to drink.

Bottle. Light amber with a quickly disapperaing white head. Aroma is extremely light but estery. Don’t notice much of the hop scent. Full mouthfeel with a sweet tinge throughout. Hop influence is barely felt, and I didn’t notice too much alchohol. Overall an okay California style Belgian, but a little too light for the style. Worth trying, especially because it’s sub-$5.

Pours a golden-amber color with a nice-looking frothy/sticky white head. Aromas are fairly light, on the grainy side with some hint of the sweet fruity estery qualities. Flavors were very sugary and floral, pretty strong on the alcohol side... no trace of bitterness. Mouthfeel was very syrupy and... along with the alcoholic "heat", made for a pretty intense brew. The alcohol does linger on for quite awhile, and I’m not sure if this beer is tasty enough to justify that. Pretty one-dimensional.

Pours golden with thin head. Aroma is full of yeasty esters. Full bodied and sweet. Not bad.

Bottled. Clear light amber color that pours with a fine white film and adequate carbonation. Mildly fruity aroma with a nose of clove, poached pear with lime, and white bread. Not a very balanced flavor that starts sweet and ends quickly with minimal bitterness and no linger at all. Simple, one-dimensional and uninviting after a half-bottle. Whatever.

Poured from tap at Marin Brew Breast Fest an Amber with medium white head. Aroma was light with toasted oats and hay. Flavor also had the toasted oats and hay with a lingering candy sweetness and some barnyard blanket funk. Very little carbonation to this one. I didn’t find it very tripel-like. Not one I’d get again.
