Commercial Description:
The aroma of this beer is agreeably gentle and is carried by a discreet bitterness while the balance between the malt and hops relies on fruity accents and a lightly fresh aftertaste.

Pours chunky amber, with a one-and-a-half finger white head, very good lacing. Fragrant apple, peaches, orange, banana, caramel and spice. Medium, tart and crisp body, strong carbonation. The taste is sour apple, caramel, banana, and lemon. Aftertaste is slightly tart, with a hint of bitterness. Well balanced.

Golden color, cloudy, fluffy white head. Sweet fruity aroma with some notes of spice and orange. Pale malt flavor with spice and a hint of light fruit. Hops and spice on the finish. Lots of fine, spritzy carbonation.

To sweet and leaves a diet pop like after taste. Its also short on flavor in general or the higher alcohol is washing out everything. Not for me.

Bottle (75 cl, from 2002), shared with a friend at Bishops Arms, V. Hamngatan, Göteborg, Sweden. Deep hazy golden, medium creamy white head. Mellow madeira aroma with some wood and earthy notes. Meidum bodied and soft. Well balanced with a dry finish. Very nice. Would like to try it fresh as well.

Poured from an 11.2oz bottle (dated 10 01 11) and served in a tulip. This tripel poured a hazy, pale golden with lots of particles and a creamy, two-finger thick head of off-white foam. Excellent retention and lacing. The aroma included honey, graham cracker, orange peel, and some bready yeast. The flavor had chewy pale malt, light candi sugar, apricot, honey, and bread dough. A bit dull, but still decent. Medium-bodied with a moderate amount of prickly carbonation. Well made in all phases but flavor...where it seemed to be a bit lacking and lifeless.

Dry wood, some white fruits. Murky yellow brown from all of the yeast on the bottom of the bottle, stark white fluffy head. More dry wood on the palate, little bright sourness, faint sting of alcohol on the middle of my tongue. creamy finish, easy to drink, very tasty.
