Cloudy light golden with a little head. Banana bursts through the nose with a light citrus splash, a yeasty thickness and a sprinkle of spices. The body is alcoholic with a thick yeastiness finishing lightly bitter. A spritzy tripel that dries too quickly and has too much distinguished alcohol.

Fairly golden and hazy. Not as carbonated as other trippels I've had. Not bad. Surprisingly similar to Bell's Oberon. Not bad, I'd have again. Lacking in the department of esters, cloves and bananas. Also, served far too cold, as usual. At least Founders is expanding. Their list of on tap beers is much larger than 1 or 2 years ago.
