Color: Golden brown with a fizzy white head.
Nose: Asparagus. Fresh herbs. Citrus. Malt. Great musty notes.
Palate: Wonderful effervescence. Citrus and sweet malt--almost bready. Soft and delectable. Noticably missing the lemony astringency on the finish of other Petrus beers.

Bottle shared courtesy of Humulone_Red. Thanks!
Pours light golden with a big fizzy head. Smell is light bright faintly spiced malt. Taste is sweet and malty with some notes of honey. Light spicing and belgian yeast character. Not bad, but nothing too unique either.

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 Suttree (3765) - Knoxville, Tennessee, USA - MAR 10, 2008
Faintly cloudy orangey gold - or goud, I guess, according to the label - and a nice fluffy white head. Very faint aroma of fruit and yeast. Some banana and some pear, some herbal, sage-like notes. Nicely bitter flavor at first, then some mildly sweet notes. very mild all the way through.
3.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 lithy (2913) - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - MAR 5, 2008
Golden honey color with a pillowy white, long lasting head. Nose like weak Orval, a little earthiness, malt, some citrus but hard to distinguish much besides smelling like a Tripel. The mouthfeel is the highlight of this beer, smooth and creamy on the tongue. Flavor is the wekest part. Plain, very little to even describe aside from a typical Tripel flavor. It does finish nice with no alcohol detected. Pretty but fairly boring tripel.
