Drnk_McDermott (1537), Downers Grove, Illinois, USA May 10, 2007 Sampler. A light beer body leading to a dense texture. A surprise smokiness that may be the effects of the Scottish and Rauch I had before this. Spicy clove, but more subdued banana, which is where I prefer it. Other fruity blends with a note of sour apple. Finishing notes of barnyard, hey and black pepper. Almost a shame to be trying this at the end of a long line of other style.

Aroma of sweet, bready Belgian malt and yeast is very authentic and inviting. Body starts with nice pale Belgian malty sweetness with some caramel, light fruity esters, and bready yeast toward a warming finish. Could hide its alcohol a little better, but still a nice Belgian trippel. kp (6200), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Sep 1, 2007 Date: 06/20/2007

Cloudy yellow, fine white head, streaks of lace,
sweet spicy aroma,
big body,
lots of sticky sweet malt flavor, lots of spices come in to add character but fail to balance the sweetness,
big body for a tripel but I like that
