Commercial Description:
This golden hued ale is marked by passion fruit and herbal notes in the aroma, with subtle suggestions of banana and honey surfacing from its deep and complex palate. The Tripel's finish is remarkably long and soothing.

Bottle. Batch 81. Golden color, hazy with a nice head. Aromas of fruit like banana and some malts. Good for style. Taste is sweet, alcohol is noticable but not too much. Good beer.

Great aroma - fruits, belgian yeast, honey. Loved the great interplay of the spicy flavors with subdued and controlled malty sweetness. Good.

Very nice... as noted by several raters, it’s not as sweet as you would expect from a tripel, but for me that’s a plus. Pours a hazy orange with a fluffy white head. Aroma is of tropical fruits with the typical yeasty bite. Flavor is a dry chardonnay-like fruitiness. This is complimented by the yeastiness... great american version of a belgian style.

750 ml bottle. The aroma is light stone fruit accompanied by sour. Hazy golden color with a lacing off-white head. Full bodied with creamy/chewy carbonation. Flavors are multiple. Bready malt, citrus, coriander, banana, other kinds of fruits. It is not sweet. It seems dry. It seems bitter. It seems to be a really good drink. The finish is clean and refreshing - weird to say that about a tripel. My mouth is puckering. It is a really good drink. Not that standard off-sweet tripel. Repeat: Good.

Pours a cloudy light gold color with a medium pearly white head. Smells of banana, orange citrus, coriander and other spices. Great nose. The flavor has a great spice character to it, alot of orange citrus and coriander, maybe some clove. Well balanced with nice masking of the alcohol. One of the better tripels Ive ever had. a nice rendition of a usually boring style. Fantastic!

Big white head on a beautiful golden pour. Bold, penetrant, taste, from this great triple. Well balanced with subtle undertones. One of the best tripels I’ve had.
