Pours a cloudy light orange with a frothy white head that quickly dissipates. Sweet aroma of pils malt, yeast and dough. Flavor is initially somewhat dry and then the creamy sweetness comes through. Medium to full bodied, low carbonation. Very sweet finish.

May 29, 2007 Growler courtesy of Skyview. Gold color with no head. Aroma is barely detectable with only a bit of yeast showing up. Flavor is mostly wheat, but there is a too strong sour and tangy element that throws it off.

May 28, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Brown orange color. Sweet malt nose with a less sweet malt body. Smooth finish, but with that same acidity/sourness as all the other beers here.

May 27, 2007 Another from Skyview, thanks Bob. This one isn’t so good. The aroma is ok with light fruit and yeast. Sweet flavor but something is off here, it doesn’t taste anything like a tripel should.

May 24, 2007 Fourth stop during May ’07 brewpub tour, On tap at the Hayward brewpub pours a semi-clear dark golden yellow brew with a thin white head that dissolves quickly to a fine film and nice lacing. Aroma of caramel, banana, medium roasted malt and a touch of yeast. Taste is very sweet, with character of caramel, burnt brown sugar, and hardly any hops. Finish is sweet, yeasty and no bitterness. Though it is the same recipe and brewmaster at the South Shore brewpub, the finish is a little smoother and an apple aftertaste.
