Good, but average Tripel - not overly complex or interesting. nihar (68), Ohio, USA Apr 15, 2007 Pours a clear light orange with little head.. smells of fruits... crisp taste with hint of oranges.. really hides the alcohol Angeloregon (2024), Portland, Oregon, USA Apr 14, 2007 Pours a watery orange and tawny hue. With a small, bubbly and swirling head. Fruity orange and mild honey caramel flavor. Leaves little in the finish. Alcohol hidden quite well Not a characteristic triple and not very indicative of a Belgian styled ale. Somewhat IPA like. sliffy (1966), Columbus, Ohio, USA Apr 11, 2007 Bottle that was ever so graciously shared by nolankowal: Hazy golden orange in color with an off white head. Aroma, bready, some pale malts, yeast, and a vegetal note to it. Flavor, bready, that odd vegetable taste, yeasty, some spices to it, kinda tangy, and a metallic finish. I did not enjoy this. adrian910ss (1394), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 7, 2007 22 oz bomber. Pours a clear golden honey color with a medium white head. Aroma of lemon, honey, pears, and candy corn. Taste is slightly sweetened like candy sugar with faint hints of spicy autumn apples, yeast and corriander. A weak version of a belgium trippel. Not much dark fruit taste like the better belgiums. OhioDad (2491), Hilliard, Ohio, USA Mar 14, 2007 22oz bomber pours amber cloudy with a short offwhite head. Aromas of apple pear, yeast, corriander, and a little candi sugar. Flavor is yeasty with notes of pear, apple, candi sugar, corriander and a touch of raisn. Medium body with above average carbonation and a soft mouthfeel. Fair for a tripel but really just average overall Brewbie (217), New York, USA Mar 10, 2007 12oz bottle. pours hazy yellow/brown. a sweet, sugary aroma. sweetness in the taste with a slightly bitter finish. haven’t had a lot of belgians, so I can’t really place it for the style, but I enjoyed it. BeerBellyOSU (47), Columbus, Ohio, USA Feb 26, 2007 Clear and golden, no haze, surprisingly little head given the style. Smells a bit like grape juice, I was expecting horse blanket. Some of the wild yeast taste, but really overclouded by wheat and alcohol.
