| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 9, 2009 Bottle. Did not realize this was a tripel until I smelled it and then read the bottle. Poured a slightly dark and ruddy gold with a big, frothy white head. Aroma of yeast, wheat, perfume, flowers and a bit of spice. Really nice flavor with a hint of chalkiness. Yeast, banana, wheat, with hints of fruit and spice. Good stuff, and I really like this style. DrDavid (957), Johnson, Vermont, USA
| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jan 8, 2009 Bottle. Ripe fruit aroma, but fairly faint. Golden body, white head. Vague fruity flavor, some pear, some spiciness. Nothing special to this one. AskForJenny (649), Ontario, New York, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 20, 2008 750 ml cork and caged bottle from Monaghans. Pours a clear golden yellow with lots of rising carbonation and a large pillowy white head. Aroma of yeast, cloves, banana rinds and finisishes with some bubble gum. Lighter bodied with strong carbonation and a dry yeasty finish. Flavor is dry overall with notes of bread and grain, fruit rind, yeast, pepper and clove. A classic beer that is worthy of a solid score after so many ratings.
