Commercial Description:
A strong, full-bodied Belgian Abbey-style beer. The traditional yeast strain that is used imparts a rich array of spicy and fruit-like flavors. The prominent clove and melon notes are complemented by the sweetness and alcoholic warmth of the beer. The appealing color of glowing orange makes this brew irresistible.

Experienced on tap at the Sharp Edge. I was excited to try this beer, being familiar with some of Stoudts’ other offerings. The appearance of the beer signaled good things to come. However, to put it very mildly, I was put-off by the aroma of the beer. More akin to garbage or rotten food than the phenolics and citrusy spices that one would expect in a tripel. It was almost so disgusting as to render the beer undrinkable. While the palate was better, it was decidedly one-sided. I got no malt sweetness of any kind. The finish was relatively dry, which at least made the beer kind of easy to finish quickly. The only excuse for this might be that the tap lines were dirty. That being said, I’d be interested in trying the bottle version of this beer.

This beer pours very cloudy, like a hefeweizen. For my palate it even tastes like one, but much boozier. It is a delicious version of a Beglian Abbey Triple for being from Pennsylvania.

12-oz. Thanks, Laura! Pours murky gold with a thin white head. Sweet fruit, spice and apple aroma. Sweet nut and fruit taste.

Bottle, #480. Hazy yellow pour with particles and quick dying white head. Sweet aroma of yeast, esters. Flavor follows with a bit of banana. Pretty good brew.

Clear strawberry blond, fluffy collapsing beige head. Aroma - yeast, fruit esters, banana, mango lassi. Flavor - sweet, alcoholic center, peach. Moderately effervescent. A more or less authentic and passable belgian tripel, but I’m not so big on the style these days, and this in particular is too alcoholic and sweet for my tastes. 6 3 6 3 12 3.0

12 oz bottle. Absolutely love the pour. Hazy, murky pineapple yellow, big fluffy white head, large floaties, lots of lacing. Aroma is of typical Belgium, but a bit scaled back- something I really appreciate. The carbonation isn’t that of German seltzer water either- another appreciated change-up from a Belgian Belgium. Zing of a mouth-feel; fruity and slightly spiced towards the end. Perfect carbonation ending, rather smooth, slight alcohol shines through- warming as it goes down. Dare I say it: this is my favorite abbey Tripel: Belgian or not!

Everything about this one reeks of just above average. I love the label, and the effort just let me down somewhat. I would try it again but only with friends.
