2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
20th August 2009
Cloudy amber beer. Semi dry palate. Very odd flavour. Like a dry spicy tripel but with an odd tangy sweetness. Finishes dry and quite warming. Doesn’t hang together for me.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle. Poured clear amber color with medium frothy white head that was mostly lasting with fair lacing. Complex citrus, fruity, candy sugar and yeasty aroma. Medium sweet spicy flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Medium body with a sticky texture and lively carbonation. Good brew.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A lightly hazed blonde belgian ale with a thin white head. In aroma, lightly fruity esters with orange peels, coriander, creamy and smooth. In mouth, a sweet candy sugar with orange peels, light Belgian hops, loads of warming alcohol, not bad. On tap at PA Flavor, April 9th, 2011.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle… Pours cloudy and yellow with a small, fizzy, white head. Tropical-fruity, sweet, doughy aroma - not overly spicy or phenolic. Full-bodied and creamy with lively, jumpy carbonation. Tropical fruit sweetness up front, followed by mellow bitterness that provides a facade of balance. Lengthy, bittersweet (more bitter than sweet), slowly fading finish. Kudos to dmschefke for providing the bottle!
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20

2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Cask at Brazen Head. Very pale golden beer. This head. Aroma is lightly spicy with a strong nose of apricot and peach character. Quite sweet with a fairly sweet character that I find typical of American-style tripels. Slight yeasty and a little bit fruity. There is also a light touch of light berryish sweetness. Soft bitterness but with a strong lingering chewy sweetness. Meh...
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle sampled on 6/28/08: Pours a transparent golden yellow with a wispy lacing white head. Aroma of phenolic sweet biscuity Belgian malts and a touch of ginger and coriander. Body starts effervescent and lightly floral with some candy sweetness and a touch of lemon citrus before a drier warming finish. An ok Belgian strong, but needs some time to mellow.
