It tastes pretty sweet with a slight sour lemon edge. The aftertaste is a bit acidic and sort of mediciney. A pretty good beer just not alot to it. Ungstrup (15111), Frederiksberg, Denmark

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 5, 2004 Cookie dough, yeast aroma that is quite sweet with notes of candy sugar and burnt brown sugar/caramel. Orange-tan with thin tan head that diminishes to cover. Sweet apples, marzipan and honey - mead-like, with notes of burnt caramel sugar in the finish. Medium body but somewhat small in the mouth. Bottle enjoyed with beerbuzzmontreal, lubiere, MartinT and Rastacouere. Rastacouere (5553), Montréal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Sep 5, 2004 Golden-amber body with a slight haze wears almost no head at all which disappoints a bit for a tripel. Honest aroma consisting mostly of gentle yeast notes and mead-like maltiness (honey, flowers, clovers). Moderate spiciness, herbs and mild smokiness. Rather perfumey palate, spicy (rosemary, basil), honey attack and candi sugar dominates a mild alcohol character. Nice soft carbonation, medium bodied. Average tripel. beerbuzzmontreal (2911), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 5, 2004 Slightly cloudy golden color with almost no head. Aroma of honey and yeast. Sweet flavor of honey, fruits and yeast, feel a bit like mead. Light to medium body, soft carbonation, liquorous texture. Pigfoot (2226), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Sep 5, 2004 Appearance: golden hue, with a pure, milky whitewhead...lovely!
Aroma: sweetness and spice, a perfect tripel feel, highly sugared, overwhelmingly pleasant, light, and. oh, so, nice.
Taste: sublime. Just perfect. Throws me back, thrusts me into a sublime state, utterly out-of-this-world, that sort of brew that sends you into something other -than-the-norm, did I say, perfect? With an abundant fruitiness, peach, apricot, citrus, and more, ...the finish is swift, but thirsty, in that it mouake you ache for more," where’s my Sawyer’s Tripel", you scream! Honestly, it’s like that, not too big, not too small, just so-right, damn, but they made a perfect tripel, sweet, but not too much so, tasty, but just enough, refreshingly simple, but thoroughly complex...Great job, Stone, once again!!!

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Sep 5, 2004 Updated: Sep 11, 2004Nice dark yellow color with smallish head. Nice malty & pepper aroma to go along with light citrus of lemons & orange. Tastes of papaya, honey, more pepper, yeast, light caramel and cloves. Slightly hoppy and really well balanced. Just a tad sweet, but thats ok.
