Hazy blond body with good carbonation and a decent white foamy head. Good malty/hoppy aroma with honeyish and biscuity hints. Wonderful and very well balanced taste that carries flowery and yeasty notes. Ends with a good warming biitersweet finish. Very good!

bottle from Total Wine Tampa - very sweet and fruity, orange, coriander and other spices - maybe too sweet but pretty dirink and hides the alcohol

Bready-citrus aroma. Slightly sweet. Thick mouthfeel. Lots of fruit and spice finishing with a hot whiskey burn.

Pours a light golden color with a fluffy white head that disapates quickly.Aroma of cloves and other spices.Taste is spicy, sweet, carbinated,alcohol and yeast. Not sure this is a triple but a nice bier.

Pours a slightly hazed brilliant yellow w/ a modest spattered spritzy froth the recedes w/ haste. Residual lacing is modest aswell, NIL. Aroma is classic w/ banana malty sweetness and a mildly tart earthiness. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. Texture is cottonous w/ a frothy expansion on the palate. Beautiful tropical banana cream malts w/ a mildly persistant acidic tart character. Kiwi, strawberry, pineapple, granny smith, vanilla, leather, earth, and a slight Flemish souring. I even caught a glimpse of cumin. Mildly sweet w/ strong flavors. Theres a pleasant brisk disposition. The finish is bittered w/ an acidic component w/ mild peachpit. The best thing is the retention of effers to the last sip. This brew actually gets a little boring after a while. I would suggest an 12oz serving instead of the 750ml I had.

Golden amber poor with a nice white head. Aromas of brown sugar, peaches, caramel and alcohol. Alcohol predominence... flavors and palate. Flavors of lemon and peaches. Nicely carbonated, sweet, good bitterness and creamy. Mouthfeel is surprisingly good. Not as good as the brown, but definitely worthy!

Cloudy bronze blonde with thick foamy laced head that is lusciously appealing. Pleasant prickly yeasty aroma.Smooth yeastiness, but tingles the palate with alcohol, cloying yeasty finish, but overall decently balanced for this high an ABV.
