On tap at Stone 1/11/11. Yum yum yum, gimme some! Light golden amber in the glass, with the slightest haze. Thiught it was a bit light in color for Belgian strong. Taste is lovely. Lots of bright citrus and subtle spice. Not overpowering in any sense. Well balanced, sharp and clean. Yummy.

One of the best Belgian Trippels I have ever tasted. Citrus, sugar and coriander all present but blended perfectly together.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Tap at Pizza Port Carlsbad. Very pale, perfectly clear golden pour. The nose has a bit of spiciness and fruitiness compared to the attenuation. Slightly honeyed sweetness on the nose along with a touch of grassiness. Softly sweet through the middle and a lightly earthy finish. Nicely balanced if, again, a little bit simple.

Clear golden, corporate apple-juice hue..frothy, sporadically lace-inducing white suds atop. Clove and banana yeast esters in the nose..strong spicy esters..estery flavors too...clove-like, banana, with a sweet grittiness underneath...one-dimensional...and unfortunately I hate that belgian yeast driven strong trippel like dimension. Forever pass.
