Interesting Tripel. 11.2 oz bottle from Total Wine. It poured a caramel brown color with a nice frothy head with a ton of effervescent carbonation. The aroma is of light sour fruit with caramel(?) and honey. The flavor delivers all that with a hint of sour in the finish. Good stuff.

Golden orange color with white head. Pleasing aroma with citrus overtones. Flavor is balanced between sweet as expected with Belgium beers and a bit spicy/sour which was interesting. Very good tripel overall.

Orange with a firm head. Yeasty aroma full of orange and spices. The initial moutfeel is completely numbed by an aggressive carbonation, that I’m not fond of. The flavours are spicy and sweet along the lines of peach.

Bottle. Poured a clear, golden color with a nice white head. I thought it had a slight citrus and spice aroma. The beer had a medium body, oily texture, very lively carbonation, and an astringent finish. Interesting flavor with a mixture of sweet, sour, and bitterness. This is the first tripel I have every had, but I wasn’t impressed. I do like the continual frothiness, but would not buy this again.

Golden color with a medium-large head. Aroma has some nice sugary-citrusy essence with a bit of spice. Flavor is a bit of spicy/sweet/sour sugary goodness that is tough to beat. A classic tripel

light Orangey pour is hazy, with full white head. Light malt aroma, fruit, a little peppery.Flavor reflects this, fruity and crisp, finishes with a little spice.
