| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Nov 14, 2009 Pours light coppery (think iced tea) from the 22oz. bottle: Some mellow fruityness and light pastry crust tones in the nose. Sweet flavors such as brown sugar, which is a little expected, but what I wasn’t expecting was the absence of spices that usually accompany a triple. Full bodied and mellow carbonation. The alcohol is hidden well, but woah I do feel it. Drinkability: Pretty good. Usual triple. Rebuy: Sure. #199 (Yay!) on 14112009, DG. hopheaven (83), Eureka, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 2/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 9, 2009 Yeasty aroma of banana, plum... Alcohol is detectable in the nose but not harsh or unpleasant... Pretty straightforward, no hop character, candy sugar sweet... Faint brown sugar flavor... Carbonated mouthfeel, well-attenuated, not malty or slick, remarkably dry... travita (1910), Frisco, Texas, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Nov 7, 2009 The look is copper in color, foamy off white head that quickly disappates. Clear.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | Nov 3, 2009 Bottle purchased at Lee’s Liquor in Las Vegas. Copper pour with a thin white head. Aromas of apple, fig, pear, and spices. Taste is a bit medicinal. I can drink this but this falls way short of a good example for the style. Slightly cloying. corby112 (706), philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 2, 2009 Pours a dark chestnut brown color with a thick frothy tan head with decent retention, slowly fading into a lasting ring. Minimal spots of lacing.
Slightly malty aroma with some subtle citrus peel notes, light fruit and licorice. Pretty bland really with nothing really standing out.
Roasted malt flavor with a spicy profile and sweet chocoalte character. Dark fruit notes, mostly plum, raisin and fig with subtle hazelnut and earthy hops. Nice alcohol warmth in the dry finish.
