Aug 24, 2007 Golden-yellow in colour, thin white coloured head, some lacing. The aroma is of apples, pears, peaches, floral hops, very light yeast. The flavour is quite fruity (lots of apples and pears), some alcohol, floral, some toasted malts, some yeast and lemon citrus. Mildly bitter mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes with a lingering fruit sweetness, some spice and alcohol. This wasn’t as citrusy as I expected it to be, soft with only some warmth. So far none of the Belgians that Stone makes are really standing out for me.

Jul 5, 2007 Bright yellow pour, just a touch of fat bubbles that form a ring around the edge of the glass. Slightly hazy. Aroma is very sweet and fruity, with notes of pears, apricots, lemons, oranges and candy sugar. Alcohol is subtle. The flavor is standard but decent. Very sweet with touches of alcoholic bitterness and mildly toasty grains. Alcohol isn’t noticeable in the flavor. The finish is sweet, dusty and lightly tart, with lingering acidity and apricot notes. Mouthfeel is very smooth, lightly carbonated, lightly syrupy and not very warming.

Thanks for the opportunity, radiomgb. Sampled on April 21, 2007.

Jan 2, 2007 body aquired trade with cquiroga...orange/amber body with no head..aroma of orange, coriander, spice, and heavy citrus..bread, yeast, and banana as well; favor is somewhat herbal, and is strong in banana, apple, orange rind and spice..excellent beer

Dec 27, 2006 Bottle from cquiroga, sampled with badnewsbeers. Hazy yellow-orange body, thin off-white head. Displays effervescent carbonation. Potent clove notes in the nose, with crackers, light fruits (white grape, pear), bananas, and alcohol. Tightly carbonated body, estery, with clove and banana paired with sweet fermented white grape, apple, and pear notes. Grassy hops. Low alcohol presence. A solid Tripel that doesn’t reach the heights of the best renditions, but nonetheless displays enough complexity to contend. This aged quite well.
