Jan 15, 2009 Thanks Walt for sending me this beer. Pours a hazy gold with an almost non existent head. Aroma of coriander, banana, and bubblegum. Sweet flavor, some fruit. A well done triple. I really like the bottle and everything this beer stands for though. I’m glad Stone is doing some for charity like this.

Jan 11, 2009 On draft at the 2008 Stone Winter Storm
Appearance is a murky golden hue, thin off-white head dissipates quickly, minimal lacing
Smell is dark fruits (raisins, cherries), honey, citrus, thick caramel malts, rather subtle for a Tripel
Taste is big raisins up front, followed by brown sugar and molasses, some sweet honey, finishes sweet and slightly dry
Mouthfeel is medium-full bodied, thick chewy texture, highly carbonated
Drinkability is good, this is a pretty solid Tripel that loses some points on the weak aromas, but is otherwise decent, this has held up well over time (I think it was brewed in 2004?), definitely worth trying once, especially since proceeds go to charity

Jan 9, 2009 22 oz bottle. Pours a solid amber with a respectable 1 finger head. Aroma of sweet caramel and malts. The flavor is mainly of malts with hints of caramel and hints of spice. I’m not a huge fan of belgian triples so it wasn’t too much of a surprise that I wasn’t in love with this one.

Jan 4, 2009 22oz bottle thanks to mashmaster, nice golden orange clear color, decent head, decent lacing. Smells like a fruity tripel. The taste is subtle but nice spice, fruit flavors, usual tripel profile. I was actually surprised to like this as much as I did but it was good and the lower (for a tripel) ABV was welcome.

Jan 3, 2009 Apricot color with a white head that doesn’t really leave any lacing or retention. Smell is grainy and has some nice clove, bubblegum, and some other spice to it. Taste is sweet, grainy malt with some light spice, clove, bubblegum, and lemon to it. Higher than medium body with relatively light carbonation to it. Might be a bit better if it was more dry, but it’s still pretty good.
