| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 17, 2007 Pours a light murky orange with a few fingers of white head. Strong odor of cinnamon and clove. A light initial taste that grows into a sweet aftertaste and well hidden alcohol. Tastes almost like a sweeter tripel instead of a strong ale. JB175 (1660), Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA

Flavor is very trippel-sh with a duvel-like quality (I don’t mean its as good as Duvel). Good overall, and no hint of 9%. Chapel (330), Levittown, New York, USA

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Nov 13, 2007 Pours a nice hazy gold with limited lacing. Smells sweet like banana with lots of spice. Taste is much the same. It hits you hard at first then smoothens out. It feels like slightly torn velvet in your mouth. ford9719 (369), Vilseck, Germany

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 8, 2007 Hazy gold with an ample white head. Aroma of tropical fruits, banana, clove, saffron and light, almost perfumed, smoke. Very fruity, spicy taste and soft balancing bitterness. Finishes a bit sweet.

| 4.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 10/10 | 4/5 | 10/10 | 3/5 | 18/20 | Nov 5, 2007 Pours a hazed, tawny yellow color w/ a full, semi creamy froth. Good head retention reducing to a silky canopy. Strong aromas of creamy banana spice and tropicals. Full nectar w/ ample residual effers. Mildly sweet w/ a big malty backbone supporting tropical flavors and banana cream. Creamy apple, pear, pineapple, and kiwi play an integral role in this ensamble. A touch of mold and smoke without the roast make their way through. It’s more like fog than smoke. A fleshy, meaty brew. The finish is long w/ abundant fruit and a touch of melon and a lemon tart. Very Tripel in nature w/ a nice creamy smooth flavor. Very complex with good balance.
