argo0 (6176), Washington DC, USA Jan 5, 2008 (750ml bottle, thanks kmweaver) Medium off-white head atop hazy light amber body. Aroma is medium sweet, clove, some bubblegum, Belgian yeast, light herbal/spicy. Taste is medium sweet, orange/lemon, light bubblegum. Lack of dryness stands out. Medium body, low carbonation, alcohol well hidden. Rastacouere (5270), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Jun 5, 2008 Objectively speaking:
Excellent tripel and yet another great pale Belgian from Boulevard.
I like:
Anonymous alcohol. Fresh bready maltiness is convincing though it does not reach the complexity of top examples. Authentic intense carbonation. Relatively hoppy, floral, spicy.
I dislike:
The yeast impact displays less character than for many of their other Belgian ales.
hopscotch (4485), Vero Beach, Florida, USA Oct 3, 2006 Bottle... GABF RB Tasting ’06... Hazy golden ale with a small, fizzy, white head. Floral, fruity, peach and coriander aroma. Sweet, toffee and fuzzy fruit flavor. Lacks the balance most tripels have. Full-bodied with an almost oily mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Fruity, sweet finish. Thanks to DenverLogan for sharing his bottles!
