Honey like color with great white head, aroma of pleasant vanilla yeast and toffee like sweetness and some less pleasant herbal notes, flavors of strong malt and cream like liquid with alcohole quite noticable finishes with some bitter pleasant taste. A nice triple but I had some better ones before.

Pours murky orange with a fizzy white head. Aroma is of yeast, malt, spice, citrus, and fruit. Taste is of fruit, malt, yeast, and lemon zest. Very light mouthfeel. Nothing spectacular, but tasty and refreshing taste.

Pours chunky amber with a large, one finger off-white head, good lasting lacing. Aroma of caramel, pear, apple, banana, biscuit, and some floral notes. Medium body, velvety, crisp. Delicious fruity flavors, apple, pear, and banana. Slightly sour. Well balanced, with lemon and a very slight bitter aftertaste.

Bottle. Pours a very cloudy dark amber with a white fluffy head typical of Belgian ales. Lots of bubble and yeast floaties. Faint aroma of yeast, citrus and alcohol. A very pleasant aroma. Very fizzy on the palate with a dry slightly bitter finish. The flavor is leans toward the citris, malt and alcohol. A good Belgian Tripple.

Poured a hazy gold color with long lasting white head. A very still body with many small particles. Smell of apples and sour berries, grassy and floral hops. Beautiful tase of apples and wonderful bitter hops, hint of black olive. Very foamy and full on tebplate, medium finish. Wonderfull! I think I like it more than the 12.

Pours a cloudy, pale straw, with a massive head, and tons of floating yeast. Some lacing. Aroma is cider-like, slightly bready and floral. Flavor is sweet malt, apple, some pepper, with a touch of bitterness. Palate is too fizzy for my tastes. Overall its an okay beer, but not on thet top of my Tripel list.

Pours gold into the glass with a nice white head with orange highlights. Aroma is spicy yeast notes with some fruitiness. Flavor is nice bready malt with some orange citrus. Not overly impressed by this tripel compared to the rest of their offerings

Pours a murky orange characteristic of a tripel. Aroma heavy with lemon and orange zest, aggressive spices, and abundant yeast. Flavor is very nice, with an exceptionally smooth combination of yeast and malt complimented by the spice and citrus. Palate is very good, quite drinkable. Very good brew.
