hazy yellow appearance, flavors of cloves, banana, and alcohol, aroma of banana. This almost reminded me of a supped up wit

Light fruity aroma. Amazing flavor with banana, citrus, cloves, honey and so much more. Alcohol comes out on the finish, but not too much. Nice full body. I will definately drink this one again.

Pours a hazy slightly dark golden with a good sized head. Aroma of citrus, some banana, and yeast. Nice sweetness, lively on the tounge. Good stuff.

12oz. Pours pretty typical belgian hazy orange, thinner white head than some. Aroma is a bit lacking, mostly menthol from the alcohol. The body makes up for it, though, with banana yeast, cider, corriander, touch of clove, allspice, and custard. A bit sweet, but this has some killer carbonation that really sets this one apart for me and makes it extremely drinkable. Easily one of my favorite North American "New World" attempts at the belgian strong style.

750 mL bottle, best before May 2010. Pours cloudy gold with big whitish head. The aroma is quite yeasty, with bread, banana, spice, and funk notes; there might be some lemon zest in there, too. The flavor is pretty clean, really. Some sweet honey and hay notes start it off, then it picks up a few fruit tones and a tinge of acidity. The finish has those yeasty tones that are in the nose, but to a lesser extent. This is dangerously easy drinking.

$2.50 bottle from Shea’s Brewing stored unrefrigerated on the shelf. Best buy 10-12-07. It’s expired, I guess that means it’s good. Pours with soda like head of large very rapidly dissipating bubbles. Cloudy orange yellow color. Very belgian triplish characteristics, including malty corriander nose. Logan mentioned that triples age just as good if not better than other beers, and for some reason don’t show signs of oxidation like other beers. Leans sweet. Maybe a bit of orange peel. No bitterness. Great mouthfeel, medium to heavy body.

Poors a big white head, nice smell of fruits, taste is very sweet and so smooth for a 9% beer. Very enjoyable!
