3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Courtesy hopscotch. Pours a cloudy, almost milky looking orange-gold color. Minimal spotty lacing noted. The nose is an odd one, showing notes of orange marmalade, toffee, butterscotch (not in a diacetyl sort of way), and hints of grapefruit. Flavors were similar, with orange and grapefruit hops coming through strong, but there was a weird, vegetal sort of funky going on as well. Toffee sweetness lingers in the background. The medium-full, sugary body finishes with biting astringency. This one is weird, for sure. I’m not a big fan.

Pours cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma is hoppy, flower, pine, grass and a hint of citrus. Flavour is like the aroma and also a light caramel sweetness.

(Bottle at One Pint on 2008-04-21) Hazy amber. Plenty of hops in nose. Quite full palate. Lots of malts and hops in taste. Alchohol and sweetness. Salty liquorice.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Sampled at Springslicker’s Fish Fry ’09. Hazy orange pour with white head and suspended particulate. Mildewy, bready, lightly hopped. Sweet grapefruit flavor, with celery, and a light antiseptic finish. Kinda boring.
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle, 50cl. Pours a little unclear beer, amber-colored with an off-white, medium lasting head. The arome has pine, citrus and flowers. The flavor is fruits, flowers and pine hops, with some sweetness. The mouthfeel is a little out of balance. Overall a nice beer, but not impressive, when using the words Triple IPA in the titel of the beer.
