Stoudts Triple

Pours orange with a fully receding white head. Aroma of apples, banana, cotton candy, spicy clove, and alcohol. Taste is quite spicy, fruity, and alcoholic with notes of honey. Not much to be said from the hops and malt, thus the alcohol is not well hidden. The alcohol meshes well with the intense phenols.

clear right amber color with some fizz up the middle. short off white dense foamy head. aroma of sweet malt, orange peel, banana. flavor is spicy hot, prety highly carbonated. a little orange peel flavor in there too. some strong malt with lots of candi sugar and alcohol heat.

I aged this one for 4 months (got greedy) and was pleasantly surprised by the flowery bouquet aroma and liked the flavor of orange, spices with minute graininess in there. The only thing I dislike is that it seems like it has to stay really cold because it seemed to lose some of its sharpness as it warmed in my glass. Rerating 5-20-06. The floweryness is still here but it doesn’t have the refined champagne-like palatte other triples I’ve had possess. A good dessert beer.

An unclear orange beer with a disappearing off-white head. The aroma is sweet with notes of alcohol and spices. The flavor is very sweet with notes of alcohol, spices, and peaches. OK triple.

[bottle] Pours dark, hazy orange with a coffee-colored head. Aroma is alcohol, spices, yeast. A little too much alcohol in the palate and aroma, it seems to be overpowering certain aspects of this brew.

Sweet and yeasty nose, with notes of spices, alcohol and bubblegum. Hazy orange brew, medium white head. Sweet and fruity flavor, but a bit too alcoholic.

Bottled: Orange coloured. Murky. Beige dense head. Orangy, sweet and spiced aroma. Flavour ispiced sweet and fruity. Ends on a dry spiced and fruity note.

ABV was front and center on this one, but it couldn’t hide the spice, clove and wheat flavors. The aroma was sweet, almost flowery. A unique and good brew.
