Sampled from a 22 oz brown bottle this beer poured a murky orange color with a small white head that left no lacing. The aroma was sweet bread, sugar, peach and apricot. The flavor was tangy and sweet with strong candied apricot, pear and faint pepper. The finish was long and sweet with lingering sugar, apricot and pear. Fairly full bodied. Excellent.

Bottle from secret santa. I’m drinking this with mtjoseph in hopes of getting him out of his panties tonight. Shouldn’t be a problem, but it doesn’t hurt to have a little help. Clear, golden orange in color with a small white head. Looks really nice in the glass. Fruity, sugary, and slightly yeasty in the aroma. Aroma has candy sugar, oranges, and a slight spice character. Nothing really stands out in the aroma, but it definitely is appealing still. Slightly sweet and fruity in taste, but not at all cloying. Lots of berry characters here, some sweet candy sugar. Finish has some grains and berries. Really nice finish. Medium bodied. Slightly sticky. Really well done.

Bomber shared with mattyb83. Pours a really nice bright golden color with just a tad of haze to the appearance. A slightly creamy head also complements. Aroma full of the orange peels and coriander with that traditional Belgian yeast characteristic present. Almost smells like a saison a little bit. Surprised how much I like this beer. Really light bodied, yet packs a lot of bright Mandarin orange citrus with an equally balanced spice aspect with a little grain. Alcohol is completely masked and is overall quite clean. Really enjoy this for being on the fruitier side of Tripel.

hazy dark golden/light amber, with a big white head that slowly fades and leaves nice fluffy lacing... aroma has notable citrus, orange, coriander, fairly spicy, fruity belgian yeast, it is definitely a cross between a white and a triple as far as the aroma goes.. mildly herbal aroma... lively body, kinda sweet finishes a bit dry, medium body, lightly slick then dries out in the finish... some definite notes of citrus and herbs, definitely more of an imperial white than a triple, some spice....

Pours an opaque amber color with a medium tan head...light sediment. Aroma is spicy...coriander and a cinnamon note...bit of citrus too...fruity beligian yeasty notes. Flavor has notable spice..clove and coriander...and some earthy, wheaty malt notes...dry earthy/spicy hop notes...tastes like a cross between a wit and a dubbel. Mouthfeel is medium and super lively and the finish is somewhat dry with an earthy malt note.
