| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 18, 2007 On tap at the Lake Grove brewpub on 9/14/07: Pours a transparent golden with a thin ring of white head. Aroma of semi-sweet pale biscuity Belgian malt with some coriander and clove spice. Body starts with some sweet malt and floral fruity esters toward a drier bready caramely finish. A pretty decent tripel, but could use a little more refinement. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

Hazy golden, thin fine white head, sweet spicy banana aroma, big banana flavor with spicy notes hiding in the background, sweet without being too sweet, spices start to take over at the end, never really any clove (d good thing, imho)

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Aug 11, 2006 1 liter commemorative bottle. The pour here was gold, with minimla head and a lot of huge carbonation bubbles. The palate was rather weak in heft, and not very complex, with notes of fruit, some hopcitrus, and slight funk notes. JH has a way to go before they can compete with the Belgians in this style. JoeMcPhee (5030), Jackson Heights, New York, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 26, 2006 Tap at the Lake Grove location. 9.5% ABV. Slightly hazy golden beer with a thin white head. Aroma is quite nice, bubble gun, berries, pale bready malt, clove and a hint of cologne. Body could be a bit leaner, but it’s not bad. No problems with the flavour either, spicy yeastiness, well balanced by honeyish malts. Some lingering peppery character and a lovely balance of fruit and spice. Clovey notes come out more as the beer warms. No complaints about this brew. The brewer at this location knows what he’s doing.
