Cakes (35), New Bloomfield, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 29, 2009 Belgian style Abby Tripel.
Very creamy. A gold color.
Medium-high carbonation. DavidHawman (7), Pennsylvania, USA does not count Oct 21, 2009 Poured a hazy golden yellow with 1" white head. Smelled faintly of bananas, yeast and cinnamon. Tasted bananas with other fruits, yeast with slight bitterness. Overall a good beer. crhensel (8), New Jersey, USA does not count Oct 17, 2009 (Bottle into a trappist glass) Poured a dark amber/ light orange color with no head. Aroma had a hint of fruit sweetness and citrus. Also a very heavy yeast smell that reminded me of Thanksgiving stuffing! Taste was a little sweet which does not really fit the style. A good beer, but more reminiscent of a very strong weizen. Warning, the alcohol is very well hidden here...that 9.3% will catch up to you! scrizzz (1246), kirkland, Washington, USA Oct 11, 2009 Dry honeyed strawberry aroma.slightly hazy yellow. dry in the sip, bright wheat and strawberry. very dry jeremytoni (1067), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Oct 6, 2009 From a bottle poured a hazy golden color with a large head. spicy malty flavor with a bit of alcohol burn in the finish. halfonit (415), Fall River, Massachusetts, USA Sep 26, 2009 Hazy golden color. Aroma is citrusy, full of spices and yeast. Taste is sweeter with fruits, and some yeast in the back end. Leaves a little bit of a bite in the aftertaste. There’s really not a big alcohol present in this one even though it’s just slightly over 9%. Not a bad beer. I love how happy the monks look on the bottle. eboats (887), Omaha, Nebraska, USA Sep 21, 2009 Had this out of the bottle. You can’t go wrong with this one. Highly carbonated with some banana flavors. Moderately sweet with a fruity aroma. I wouldn’t want to drink more than one in a given session, but it is decent change of pace. The alcohol is well hidden though I did feel a slight burn with my first sip. nickd717 (1265), Palo Alto, California, USA Sep 14, 2009 Bottle from Chevy Chase Wine & Liquors in DC. Pours a hazy golden color with a fizzy white head. Aroma is banana, clove, wheat, yeast. Flavor is wheaty and yeasty with banana, clove, honey, Asian pear and other light fruits, as well as some alcohol. Body is medium-light and carbonation is high. Overall, pretty good. Not really to style though since it seems a little more like a strong German hefeweizen than a trippel.
