Oct 6, 2007 Another great Captain Lawrence, this yummy hybrid of a bitter IPA and yeastiness looked good, smelled good, and tasted great. So what the person I shared this with and supper thought it overly hoppy and likes sweeter Belgiums. More for me. Very drinkable.Creaminess from the yeast, which starts sweet and then gives a good controlled bitterness from the tasty Amarillo.

Oct 5, 2007 RBSG 07 Minneapolis Grand Tasting: Blonde gold color, light head and lacing. Nose of tart yeast and lemon, some sweet fruity malt. The flavor is metallic and citrusy, nice hops and spice, not clean, but great balance of flavors and explosive citrusy yeast in the tail.

Sep 29, 2007 This one has a good floral quality mixed in with the herbal nature. There’s an adequate bitterness to match the sweetness and unlike the Dubbel, it lacks the alcoholic heat. Much better beer.

Sep 29, 2007 2006 bottle: Pours a hazy golden bronze with a big frothy, well-lacing, white head. Aroma of doughy sweet Belgian malt with a touch of floral yeasty esters and some aged hops. Body starts fairly full and sweet with a nice doughy texture and good complexity and authenticity. A nice abbey tripel.

Sep 26, 2007 As far as I remember the 1st release had less hops than this version. 2006 bottle. After a year still retains some hop balance. Nice bubbles but not overly carbonated. Beautiful unfiltered deep golden color. Aroma of sweet belgian sugar and malt. Hops have mellowed since release but has aged well so far. Delicous brew.

Sep 20, 2007 25.4 oz bottle. Clear gold, half white head with a careful pour. Thick lace. Yeast, lemon, pineapple and sugar cookies. Fizzy-foamy lemon chiffon pie. Alcohol creeps in a bit before a dry, sour apricot finish. Lingering citrus oil.

Sep 16, 2007 The color was interesting. In flourescent light, the beer appeared to be light green/yellow. In sunlight, it appeared to be golden/orange. The head was fizzy, and off-white. The aroma was lemon zest, citris, floral, very hoppy. The flavor was intense. It was extremely strong citris, lemon zest, a little tartness, and a lot of dry hops. The palate was crisp and lively. The finish was very clean and warm. This is a most excellent beer.
