Sten (288), Westerlo, Belgium Nov 11, 2006 A blond-amber coloured beer with a fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet and malty. A sweet and fruity taste. The flavour is a bit too sweet for me. (Bottle 33cl aged 2.5 years) thornecb (1735), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA Nov 8, 2006 Pours bright gold into a tulip. Bright white micro head slowly recedes. Sweet raisin aromas. Dry and tart with a lasting bitter/sweet finish. dwyerpg (2519), Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Nov 6, 2006 Smells like a triple with just a little extra malt. Pretty dry, w/some noticeable finishing hops. Another nice beer, no. 27, for the list. Laxplayer21 (2), Macomb, Michigan, USA does not count Nov 6, 2006 Had it for first time in Boston. Had a nice strong aroma. Very fruity tase. zebracakes (1214), Washington DC, USA Nov 5, 2006 On tap. Hazy gold, thin white head. Aroma is fruit, wheat, spices. Flavor is fruit, wheat, slightly sour and musty. ross (1709), weddington, South Carolina, USA Nov 5, 2006 750 ml bottle. Pours out a brownish yellow color with a white head that goes away pretty quickly. Smell is spicy, hoppy, and malty. Some sugar and lemon is also apparent. Taste is smooth with no trace of the alcohol being evident at all. There is also a nice lemony flavor to it. Pretty good stuff actually. Not too hoppy, which is good because extremely hoppy tripels are not my thing. SDbruboy (1832), San Diego, California, USA Nov 1, 2006 330 bottle, from BevMo LaJolla. Pours mostly clear, lemon-golden color with a large white head. Aroma of sugar cookies, peach, lemon, yeast, ’spring flower’ soap, wheaty notes, vanilla and floral hops. Flavor is sweet, sweet, candy sugar, and lemon, clover, tart floral notes, apricot, with a bready character, the signature GC yeast and a pleasant hop finish. Medium body and smooth mouthfeel. iowaherkeye (1832), Bakersfield, California, USA Oct 25, 2006 Updated: Oct 26, 2006750mL, no date. Pours a clear golden with gigantic, frothy white head. Aroma has some yeast, spicy hops, banana, candy sugar, and light oranges. Flavor a lot more stale fruity than I had anticipated, with a nice, dry finish. Overall taste leans much more to sweetness, with some raisins and oranges being up front. Thick mouthfeel, still fairly carbonation despite everything that went to its head. There is a little warming in the back of the throat from the ETOH.
