| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 7, 2003 Poured a clear golden color with a large bubbly white head. Fruity aroma of lemon, and I thought I smelled an olive scent somewhere here as well? Smooth taste of tropical fruits, with a lively mouthfeel. argo0 (6978), Washington DC, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 6, 2003 Hazy golden body with small off-white head. Aroma is sweet, apple, mango, yeasty. Taste is sweet, fruity, alcohol, finishing with a medium alcohol burn. Medium-full body. Interesting beer, but something seems awry. wilkie (1191), Raleigh, North Carolina, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 30, 2003 A solid tripel in my opinion. However, most well suited for the holiday season, as this is robustly spiced. A crystal, golden appearance with a sweet and spicey aroma. Malty, sweet, and spicey, yet mostly crisp. Well balanced, but somehow on the brink... Jokes (1453), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 29, 2003 A lightly hazy golden body with little head. The aroma is both slightly sweet and yeasty. Nice light fruit notes and esters, plentiful spicing as well. Citrus, peach, cloves, perfume, pizza dough, banana, and candy sugar. A moderatly full mouthfeel. The flavor really is very nice. Fruity sweetness and hop bitterness softened by spicy yeast. This really was a well crafted beer. I'm very glad I was able to find this one. Libeerian (209), Garner, North Carolina, USA
| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 28, 2003 I'd just tasted a New Belgium Trippel and thought it decent until I poured a glass of GL. The complexity and depth of flavor and aroma knocked me over. This is one of the best tripels outside of Belgium!
