Oct 17, 2005 Poured a cloudy gold with a white head. The aroma was cinnamon, peaches an a little bit of flowers. There is also some Christmas shortbread cookies. The taste had pears with spicy cinnamon. There was also some ginger. A weird funky finish that detracted a little.

Oct 16, 2005 Yeast, orange pez, and cherries in the aroma. Hazy light amber body with a voluminous white head. Wonderfully complex aroma. The flavor starts with a spicy burst of pepper, clove, banana and wraps up with taffy-sweet malt. My style of Tripel, it’s much more flavorful than most.

Oct 11, 2005 Hazy yellow-orange with a nice head. Creamy-smooth texture. Rather aromatic, with coriander, light orange, fresh-cut flowers, honeycomb, and lemon grass. Flavors to match. Mild bitterness rounds things off. Very pleasant beer.

Sep 11, 2005 Tap at GCBF. Cloudy, bright yellow with thick persistent head. Aroma of coriander, banana, light spice. Seems like an emperial wit. Flavour is a bit phenolic, coriander, clove, heavier bitterness than is typical. Full mouthfeel, a bit creamy. Lingering spice and bitterness. Nice, but a bit strange.

Sep 3, 2005 Draft at the Abbaye. Barback must have dropped the keg down the stairs as Anders spent hours pouring off foam. Finally convinced him to leave me a glass, and oh what a delight. Orange ale thick with yeast - another energy beer. More of a superduper Wit than a Tripel - great apricot and peach flavors. Not at all boozy. Going back for more tomorrow.

Sep 2, 2005 Bottle courtesy of Larry Pitonka. Pours out with a huge white lasting head. Almost immediately, bursts of caramel, oranges, butterscotch and bananas filll the air. On settling, some grapefruit and other misc. citrus notes can be detected. Taste falls a bit short. Some of the usual suspects are present for a tripel, but not as pronounced as I’m used to. There’s a nice meadow-like finish to this one. Interesting, but not something I’m blown away by.
