Ibrew2or3 (2714), Safety Harbor, Florida, USA May 22, 2006 Hazy light orange color with small white head. Strong sweet brown sugar, molasses and malt aroma. Tastes just as it smells with strong sweet flavor, high carbonation, that Belguim yeast/spice and malt. I don’t detect much in the way of hop flavor or bitterness. PBOYNY (316), Westchester, New York, USA May 5, 2006 Decent triple, Nice aroma, a bit fruity, a cloudy base, smooth aftertaste, with a hint of bitterness Gachupines (290), USA Apr 30, 2006 Light brown with a lingering white head. Taste is pleasant, strong but not overpowering. Banana, some spice, and yeast are dominate flavors. Alcohol is noticeable but not overpowering. Pretty decent, but still not among the best triples I’ve had. Mangino (1027), Mississippi, USA Apr 29, 2006 Pours light brown, off white head. Aroma is banana sweet and smooth, easy to smell and pleasent to the nose. Flavor is sweet, more power, banana, pepper, smooth. yayforbeer (641), Orange Park, Florida, USA Apr 26, 2006 Bottled 3/22/06. Might benefit from a little more aging. Pour is bright orange with a short lived white head. Aroma is bubblegum and alcohol, even a whiff of model airplane glue. Flavor is candy sweetness, melon, a little yeastiness, spice, and some hop bitterness. The alcohol really shines through. Tastes like more than 9% which is odd because the Stoudt’s Fat Dog Imperial stout is also 9% and the Double IPA is 10.6% and I don’t taste the alcohol in them at all. I’m a fan of good Belgian triples and while this is fairly good, it slightly misses the mark. If this were $8 a sixer like in Boca Raton, it would be fine, but at $13.99 at Broudy’s, Orange Park FL it’s not worth the admission. Beerdedone (1873), Croydon, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 24, 2006 Updated: Apr 26, 2006Bottle sampled with Stegosaurus. Pours copper with a white head. Aroma of fruit, spice, citrus. Flavorwas smooth, citrus, fruit, very nice. harmfuldrunk (288), New Jersey, USA Apr 23, 2006 12 ounce bottle dated 03. 05.A LITTLE dense yet it does have a good belgian finish to it. high on the spice side light fruity, a little cheese taste, nice well kept Bosco (65), Boca Raton, Florida, USA Apr 18, 2006 Pours cloudy orange with little head and decent lace. OK, so I get the melon part but no clove here...sorry.
The description: "spicy and fruit-like" should have warned me that this was not my type of beer. Abbey lovers should enjoy this one.
$8/sixer in Boca Raton
