The first sip tasted sweet like honey, with a peppery spice in the mix. It is a smooth Tripel with only a faint hint of hops. There is a small bitter aftertaste on the back of the tongue. It was a good Abbey Tripel. Great Lakes usually does a nice job with their brews and this is no exception.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a hazy medium golden color with just a hint of a white head. The aroma is sweet citrus, malt and spice. The flavor is sweet, malty, spicy, sugary and has a hint of orange. There is a thick palate. The spice and a honey like element come out more as the beer warms. skaughty (621), Marietta, Georgia, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Aug 9, 2004 On Draft, Dilly’s Deli Mariemont, OH
Poured with suspended bubbles amidst a golden body. Aroma of a farmhouse ale. The flavor is bold and spicy -with HUGE malt and pepper. This beer is unique in its density of appearance and taste. This appears to me an attempt at a Westmalle clone that was twisted and overdone - yet still very tasty. Complex for sure. Alcohol burn is evident.
