May 22, 2008 2008-Apr-25 from a 750 ml bottle. Spicy lemon and clove aroma. Golden and cloudy with a good head. Upon drinking there is an initial bite, then citrus, then a dry finish. Lacks a good finish on the tongue.

May 21, 2008 12oz. bottle. Orange-hay pour, very hazy, nice small, creamy head. Inital fruity aromas, tropical fruit, pineapples, pretty yeasty. Really nice, creamy on the palate, alot of fruits, with a soft, gentle washing effect that I can’t describe. Some sweet banana bread fights through the mangos, peaches, and spices. Very nice.

May 20, 2008 3/15/08 notes: from bottle, I got to try this beer again thanks to my friend Pat. Pours a muddy peach color that is cloudy (I assume it is unfiltered?). Smell that hits you is a sweet, fruity one, which might be effectively reproduced by mixing lemon peel, coriander, orange, grass and cotton candy. This beer is strongly carbonated, has a fairly light body (for an Abbey Tripel), and contains minimal traces of 9% alcohol. Strong rum fruit-cake flavor, along with banana and clove. I found the flavor to build as this beer warmed, and that trademark unibroue fruitcakiness stayed in my mouth well after the gulp. Memorable beer, but still not quite my cup of tea; I prefer Ommegang’s Belgians.

May 17, 2008 Golden Amber with a slight greenish hue and a nice cream head. Sweet baby fruit smell, and as others say, the enticing smell of raw dough. Complex flavor, with banana baby food, bright citrus, holiday spices, a hint of russian tea. Nice finish. I enjoy this very much. Makes me nostalgic for the holidays. I need to remember this next Thanksgiving or Christmas.

May 17, 2008 Aroma is fresh dough with flours and a touch of lemon spice. Bubbly head, nice lacing, pearl yellow gold color. intense clove candy sweetness, slight sourness, mild bitterness. Huge carbonation, smooth finish, alcohol barely makes itself noticeable. This is a fantastic beer, one of the best non-Belgian Tripels available. Awesome!
