| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Oct 18, 2006 How this outrates so many great authentic Belgium tripels is beyond me. This is an alright beer especially for the price though. Pours clear filtered bright yellow with hyperactive carbonation and a good sized white head. The aroma is peppery spice with light earthiness, light sweetness and a bit musty along with a bit of richness. Medium body with sharp carbonation that is much sharper than most I’ve had of the style. Starts with a sourness, light barnyard and some richness with a light syrup taste and feel. The finish has some spice and light astringency added to things. An okay beer that is highly enjoyable for the price. papajohn (1054), San Diego (Mira Mesa), California, USA

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Oct 6, 2006 12 oz bottle-trade w/after4ever. Poured a beautiful golden color w/a moderate off white head. Wonderful classic Belgium aroma. Big, complex, spicey, sweet, fizzy, citrus flavor. Classic Belguim-I’ve had many Belgiums from Belgium which didn’t taste as Belgium, if you had it in a blind taste test you would never guess it was an American made beer. Long finish-this is a very good beer!! Thanks Tom!!! Headbanger (1582), Aurora, Illinois, USA
