100% blind rating. Head is fully lasting. Body is hazy dark yellow. Aroma is moderately malty (toasted grain), lightly to moderately hoppy (flowers, herbs), lightly to moderately yeasty (cobwebs, mold), with notes of alcohol, cotton candy, pepper, clove. Flavor is moderately to heavily sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter. Finish is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly to moderately acidic, moderately bitter. Medium to full body, velvety texture, lively carbonation, moderately alcoholic. Nice, but not terribly distinctive.

Cloudy yellow color with a huge white head. Aroma and flavor of citrus fruit and a greatly subdued Unibroue yeast.

Orange color with a small head on top. Nice apricot yeast nose. Nice apricot and also medium cherry taste. Earthy. Light spicy finish. Nice one.

750 ml bottle. Golden colour. Mostly clear, but with a slight haze. Same crisp dry hop character as you find in most tripels. Lightly sourish sensation in the back. This could be hops that providing the acidity. Quite bitter, at least in the beginning. Finishes more malty, but the aftertaste is dry and warming. Alcohol is quite noticeable.

This brew pours with a golden body topped by a thick head with a good amount of lacing. It’s spicy and full of clove with a hint of banana and a little yeastiness with a slight lemony note. Medium bodied, smooth, a touch tingly and a hint dry.

Golden/straw colored beer with high, fizzy carbonation - sweet honey aroma, with some background earthy/yeastiness, a touch of lavender and peach - I taste a lot of tropical fruit in this (apricot, pinapple mostly) - somewhat sweet up front, but a spicy driness swells up to balance it, with a hint of the lavender from the aroma, along with some other aromatic/flowery qualities - almost seems like a really strong saison/tripel-hybrid - pretty good.

OK, I really expected to love it. Less intense and less complex than most of the Unibroue Belgian-style Canadians. Appearance like a Belgian tripel, with the yeasty bready nose and taste. I’ll try this again, just to see if I can work up a stronger reaction to it the next time.
