Pailhead (2572), Allen Park, Michigan, USA Jul 9, 2006 Bottle: Huge flowery aroma with light fruit and a hint of yeast. Pours a mostly transparent golden-orange with a touch of haze and a little bit of sediment. Moderate white head lasts a minute or so and leaves some okay lacing. Yeasty fruitiness up front is quickly overtaken by a peppery and flowery hopped finish. Emil (6075), Copenhagen, Denmark Jul 8, 2006 Bottle. Yellow colour with a small white head. Sweet fruity, spicy, yeasty aroma and taste. Medium to full body with a sweet light alcoholic finish. joergen (8430), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 7, 2006 Bottle.
Cloudy golden coloured with a white head.
Sweet aroma of fruits and spices.
Flavour of fruits, spices, earth and alcohol.
Papsoe (14642), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jul 7, 2006 (Bottle 35,5 cl) Pours a slightly hazy pilsener golden with a creamy, off-white head leaving a discreet lacework. Distinct aroma of yeast and some fruit - perhaps even a dash of coriander. Rather full-bodied with accents of yeast and sulphur - and perhaps a banana note. Some alcohol presence showing in the finish. Thanks to PhillyBeer2112 for providing this. 060706 puzzl (2579), New York, New York, USA Jun 28, 2006 Alcoholic, spicy fruitiness in the aroma, powerful and drunk. Nice gold pour with a bug, puffy head. Flavor is thin and very alcoholic, with gentle fruit notes, pepper, licorice. OhioDad (2491), Hilliard, Ohio, USA Jun 25, 2006 12oz bottle via trade with cbkschubert! - Thanks Craig! - Pours golden with a fluffy offwhite head that stayed well and laced in sheets on the tulip that I drank it in. Aromas of yeast, corriander, bannana, and green apple. Flavor is fruity with lots of apple, bannana, and a bit of pear. Also some yeasty notes there and a spicy dry finish. Palate was good and crisp. Very nice tripel. Enjoyed. Thaichile (599), 10aFly, New Jersey, USA Jun 22, 2006 Bottle. Pours a red tinged yellow with a nice little head. Aroma is malty, grassy, with some light toast. Flavor was spicy and yeasty. There was some hop character but it was in the back. The mouthfeel was thick and creamy. Not bad at all, but nothing spectacular either. Thanks to jhammerly for the bottle. elektrogeist (158), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Jun 21, 2006 12oz bottle from lee’s liquor: hazy as hell, yellow with a long lasting creamy head. thick body, and an even thicker flavor of sweet malt and yeast. perhaps some plum and sour fruit in the aroma, and a little in the flavor.. which is not off style for belgian but unusual for an american one. or perhaps my bottle is from a "bad" batch ;) still enjoyable, well hidden alcohol.. watch out.
