| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Oct 18, 2007 Pours a golden brown, like burnt french fries. Big fluffy frothy head. Aroma of zesty fruit, apple and pear, malty sweetness and yeast. Tastes of sugary malty goodness and pear along with a hint of yeast sediment, which I poured out. Strong feel of carbonation on the tongue. You definitely get the warming feel of the alcohol but it is fairly well hidden. Another very solid offering from Hair of the Dog. crizay (1050), Brook Park (was Tampa,FL), Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 14, 2007 Murky brown, small white head. Aroma is banana, candy sugar and light fruits. Flavor is pears, apples, honey, candy sugar, floral hops. Some caramel and spiciness. Thin mouthfeel but lots of carbonation. Kinda lacking something. miketd (685), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 12, 2007 Thanks to crizay for sharing. Pour is a murky brown and has a little white head. Aroma is sour with hints of floral and citrus...a bit like wine. Flavor is of flowers, tart and a bit of citrus. I’m not sure if this was a bad bottle, bit it tasted a bit off.

| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Oct 5, 2007 Updated: Dec 13, 2007Bottle conditioned and enjoyed at Volo. Poured a nice reddy caramel colour, with a rapidly diminishing head. Nose was floral and a aroma I just couldn’t nail down. Predominant flavour was equally elusive - is it fruity or is it more vegetable? I looked at the bottle and realized that I was picking up on the beets added to the brew. Not like any other tripel flavour I’ve ever come across, but recommended. Finish left a nice hoppy dryness. Interesting drink, if only for the novelty value. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA
