Dec 11, 2004 Slightly hazed yellow with a lacey halo-forming white head..very spicy, bananaish, and yeasty aroma with notes of spiced cookie...biscuity, yeasty flavors..cookie-like, but too spicy or just a bad yeast or something..I mean, its not bad, its just the yeast doesnt sit well with me..its got that spicy character i dont like..which is a reason i dont like many trippels. Other than that...its well made.

Dec 6, 2004 (Draft: 2004 Strong Ale Festival, Pizza Port in Carlsbad, CA. Day 2, Beer 8) Chicago Brewing Company is located in … Las Vegas!!? Huh? Well, it smells like a tripel, albeit, not an especially aromatic one. Candi sweetness, light spice, moderate bubblegum are all in the nose. The flavor is moderately sweet with some bubblegum and light spice. Lightly bitter as well. The palate has average viscosity, but I’ve had many tripels with a more substantial mouthfeel than this one. Pale golden color. Whitish head is bubbly, and maintains the thin layer for a bit, but eventually fades to a sheen. Some modest lace here and there. This is decent, but the flavor just seems a bit light and watered down. Come on guys, let loose!

Oct 11, 2004 Growler courtesy of MMM...Beer.Nice golden orange color,small white head that had a short life then faded to nothing.The aroma was malty,fruity,and some what spicy with a decent some what sweet side to it.The flavor was very nice,Light malt side with a heavy bannana and spice flavor coming through as well as a decent but not over powering alcohol.Fairly smooth feel in the mouth with a nice mild alcohol bite coming on at the end.With the fruit and spice making for a nice but mild after taste.Well worth trying again if i ever make it nevada one of these days.Many Thanks to MMM...Beer for sending me this hard to get brew.

May 12, 2004 on draft: nice yellow orange haze with a poofy white head. nose of wheat citrus coriander. a little more bold in the mouth then i expected. the nose follows through to the palate. dont know how much alcohol is here but its pushed up a bit. a solid beer.
