Commercial Description:
Rich pale malt flavors provide a solid base for zesty Styrian Golding and Czech Saaz hopping. Trappist ale yeast contributes the fruity, spicy profile of classic, monk-brewed, Belgian ales. Our Trippel is luscious, fiery, golden brew and a contemporary rendition of traditional Belgian Trippel.

Sampled blind at "Better Know a Style: Abbey Tripel" tasting. Slightly hazy orange color with small white head. Strong orange aroma with yeast, spice, slight earthiness. Orange flavor with easrth, dough, spice and yeast, too much. Creamy medium body. Overall very astringent.

Pours a nice copper color with a foamy head that lasts and laces nicely. Aroma of banana, citrus, yeast and spice. Flavor follows along the same lines, sweet and fruity with a hint of spice and alcohol on the finish. Average carbonation and mouthfeel. A pretty good brew.

Pours a hazy copper with a white head. Highly carbonated with an everlasting ring of foam and no lacing. Smells like bananas and oranges. Full body tasting of bananas with a spicy hint. Reminds me of a Tripel Karmeliet, but cheaper. Green flash has been good to me so far.

On draught @ Gingerman... Pours yellow, hazy thick, highly aromatic with a white head. Fruity, tastes like banana, cotton candy. Fantastic. The more I try these Green Flash beers, the more I love them !! Great stuff

2007 Vintage. Thanks to Hellbilly for this one! Cloudy copper pour with fluffy white head. Fruity nose. Full bodied. Notes of grain, candy sugar, citrus, and alcohol.

Spicy fruity nose with candied roses. Dense foamy head, great lacing, brilliant orangey/amber color. Peppery sweetness, some banana, and enough bitterness to balance it. Body is full and has a frothy mouthfeel. The finish is the key, all the flavors explode then slowly drowned into a smooth alcohol burn. A bit more aggressive than expected, but a very tasty beer.
