| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Aug 3, 2008 One of the hoppiest belgian brews I have had in a while. Pours a beautiful bright, hazey golden colour with a thicker then thick white whip cream like top. Plenty of sediment, which is evident all throughout the bottle. Aroma is very fruity, with a strong hop floral scent. Taste is very astringent, hop infused and creamy. Very interesting brew all the way through, glad I tried it.

Pours a lush bright yellow with a head that would make Peter North insecure. Aroma is subtle hop spice with a touch of bready yeast. Alcohol is very apparent when ya sniff the drink. Flavor is unlike anything I have ever tasted; on the one hand, it’s bitterly hoppy, but then a buttery yeast takes over and subdues the sour tones. Nice bready finish. Watery palate really detracts from the overall experience. Not too shabby; interesting, if nothing else. bennylava (83), California, USA

750 ml bottle. Pours hazy golden yellow with ample foamy, creamy white head which is lumpy and long lasting. This beer has amazing lacing, each gulp leaves a semicircular ring. A very nice taste manages to taste somewhat double IPA’ish with lots of hop flavors (citrus, pine) but also with some style characteristics of belgian ales. It definitely leans more to an IPA though and is pretty damn good. Darkover (1311), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 5/5 | 17/20 | Jul 30, 2008 Clear yellow then very hazy after the yeast is poured out, with a huge rocky head. Aroma of citrus, caramel and some yeast. Flavor of fruit, some caramel malts, alcohol, and hops. Finish is dry, hoppy and bitter. Pretty good and unusual. haukur (682), Reykjavik, Iceland
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 28, 2008 Not as hoppy as I would have thought. More like a bomb af a belgian. Fruity aroma, big malty body. VERY good EHopper (274), Minnesota, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 27, 2008 Never imagined this combination would be so good, Belgian Triple and American IPA. It was suburb. I have always like the flavor of a Triple and the bite of an IPA, now I have both. Letting the foam subside gives a great opportunity to inhale the fruit and hope aroma. The first taste throws quite a lot at you, yellow fruits and spice, pine and green vegetable, some sweetness that goes to dry with an aftertaste of bitters. Fantastic fun.

| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 5/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 23, 2008 Very good, slightly different than anything I have had before. Has a fruity and yeasty flavor of an excellent tripel, but with some IPA flavor as well. Lightly dry finish. Perfectly balanced. Highly carbonated, the bottle foamed all over the place and took a while to settle. Very drinkable for the strength.
