5 AROMA 10/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 10/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 20/20
I don’t understand why this beer has an average rating. It’s one of the best American made tripels out there. If you like TRIPLE, TRIPEL, TRIPPEL I strongly recommend this one.

UPDATED: JUN 13, 2007 I have KrisB to thank for this. Cloudy Copper color, big frothy head with even frothier lace.
Taste is sweet and spicey, texture smooth and perfectly carbonated, finish dry. One of my very favorites.

This beer was full of flavor with a nice smooth finish. You can definitely taste the candi-sugar which adds a hint of fruit taste. The price is reasonable and the aftertaste was enjoyable. I had this one on tap and would welcome it again.

This is a delicious spicy ale brewed in the Belgian tradition. It is slightly cloudy with a golden color. They got the recipe exactly right when they decided to call this an abbey tripel.

Distinctive Belgian yeast, sugary malts, medium bodied, mildly floral.

Copper color. Fruity aroma. Spicy malt flavor. Not overly carbonated. A gental mouthfeel. Overall this belgian triiple is very true to its style, which is hard to do in america. I really enjoyed this ale and recommend it for others! Cheers

Pours a clear deep gold, topped by a quarter inch of soft whitish foam. The etching in the bottom of the glass does a great job of producing a continuous stream of bubbles for good head retention and good lacing. The beer has a sweet aroma of cotton candy and honeymalt.
Initially, the beer starts out pleasantly sweet with honeymalt and apricot flavors, then –wham – a dry fruitiness blends in with dried peach, almond, and toasted malt. The hops in the finish are mildly bitter and pleasantly citrus. Medium body, ample carbonation, and both tart and sweet in the aftertaste. A trace of thicker sweetness coats the roof of my mouth for an instant after each sip.
4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Aroma: Sour, tart aromas--resin hops with dried fruits--with hints of caramel sweetness underneath.
Appearance: Cloudy gold with rocky, white head.
Taste: Medium sweetness with a light sourness in the finish.
Palate: Full body, thick creamy texture, lively carbonation, long soft finish.
Overall: While it’s not mind blowing, it’s a really rich, complex and well-developed beer.

Fruity with an effervescent quality. Fuller flavor as the beer warms up but develops a strong after taste if allowed to warm up too much. Nice new teast
