Commercial Description:
Enchanting and enlightening, this golden, frothy ale boasts an intriguing herbal aroma, warming alcohol esters on the tongue and light, but firm body to finish. Exotic spices add subtle notes to both the aroma and flavor. Strong, sensual and satisfying.

bottle. Pours a nice yellow with golden tint. Very white head. Aroma of yeast and spice. Taste is sweet with lemon/honey and grass with an alchohol kick at the end. Nice. A more subdued tripple.

12oz bottle: pours a hazy golden brown with quick fading white head, aroma of belgian pale malt, flavor is pretty close to the style but has this after taste i cant get over its like a stale taste. good beer other than that and cheaper than buying a true belgian and i get .8 more oz.

One of my favorites - it is a truly American spin on the classic Tripel - it is beautiful light yellow color with the aroma of spice (ginger, notably) right out of the bottle. It is a very zesty brew with a slightly sweet aftertaste. It pours slightly hazy with a medium head. Victory keeps ’em coming - another fine beer from a strong pedigree.

(Bottle, Stockholm Beer Festival, 26 Sep 2008) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with tropical fruit, pineapple and spices. Malty, fruity taste with lots of tropical fruit and notes of spices (ginger and clove). On the sweet side but a decent tripel.

Bottle at the Dancing Camel brewery. Thanks David Cohen for sharing this! Slightly hazy golden-colored with a medium white head. Fruity aroma with some tropical fruits, some yeast and a nice hoppy touch. Sweetish flavor with a bit of malt, some fruits and a rather big spiciness (quite a bit of coriander). A dry finish with fair bitterness and a bit of alcohol. Medium-bodied. Not bad but not my cup of tea.
