Commercial Description:
This is the ultimate Belgian style. The very high gravity of this beer is balanced by the smoothness of its finish. Banana and Clove aromas come from the Belgian yeast strain combining with the generous dose of Belgian Candi Sugar. The Saaz hops help to give this beer a balanced bitterness with no noticeable hop aroma.

The Plalet stripped your mouth like vingar. A little to floral for my taste... Liquid potpourri...

As soon as you pop the top, you are overcome with a nutmeg, spices. Very dry finish. Carmel color with a white head that disappears quickly. I found it to be like drinking potpourri.

pours golden brown with some floaties. Aroma is weak but fruity. Flavor is fruity and very balanced. This beer reminds me of Victories Golden monkey. good beer.

Appears a cloudy golden brown with a clumpy off white head that fizzles out into a slight film and decent collar. Sticky lacing is left behind. Solid streams of carbonation make this murky brew even more enticing. Smell is of yeasty dough, sugary peaches,apricots, vanilla cream. Taste is of the same aromas with a mild peppery touch. Mouthfeel is zesty, creamy and full bodied with a sugary, yeasty, Belgian candy sugar standing out. Not too friggin shabby.

12oz - bought at brewery 10/31/05 - Aroma is bubblegum (lots of it), Belgian yeast, and fresh hops. Pours a clear amber with a medium head and great lacing. Flavor is also bubblegum and Begian yeast and the alcohol shows up. The palate is clean and smooth. An easy drinking tripple, especially as it warms.

On tap at Clarkston Union. This amber ale poured with a short off-white head, eliciting a nice flowery aroma. The flavor was candy sweet, but well-balanced with the hops.

This is a very sweet trippel with a clean crisp finish. It has a complete flavor through and through, and is the signature beer for the brewery. I rate this top of tops because I have been up there every week to get more.

On tap at the brewery. Orange colored beer with a thinner white head although it took them 10 years to pour it had so much head, very little haze. Quite fruity, peach and apricots, some pear, yeasty. Candi sugar is there and fairly noticible. Medium creamy body, alcohol is hidden well. Nice beer, decent tripel.
