Pale golden-yellow in color with a small, rocky white head. There is a very nice lemony-peach aroma with hints of nutmeg and a mild maltiness. This is one of the best beers I’ve had as far as being refreshing, it is so light yet flavorful. Fizzy, muted fruit taste that is perfectly balanced. I could drink this all night if it wasn’t so carbonated. Good brew.

Bottle and tap. Large white fluffy head, dark yellowish orange pour. Aroma is of strong spice (ginger?) and citrus. Flavor is strong citrus, spicy and almost peppery. Almost resembles a barleywine.

the gnome is cute and all, but it said that this is a tripel on the bottle, and what i got was basically a blonde... sweet and not very complex, highly overrated compared to the trapists

NorCal tasting Jul 07 - The beer pours out a touch hazy golden color with a huge fluffy white head with smally, compact bubbles. Aroma that first hit me was orangy spices with a helping dose of ginger and honey. Very nice nose. The beer has a fantastic flavor of well with an interesting subtle barnyardyness to it, fruity with a dried apricot flavor, malty sweet, peppery with a fantastic lingering finish.

Tap @ Publick House, Brookline, MA (October 2006). Pours a hazy gold color with a prominent white head. Aroma is largely fruit and hops. Taste is sweet up front and balanced by the fruit and hop notes toward the end. A very smooth and refreshing blonde ale.

From tap at Kulminator. Pale golden colour, hazy. Big white head. Fruity and perfumy hop aroma. Well-balanced sweet flavours with fruit and flowery hop bitterness. A good craft beer.

Sweet, doughy and thick with a significant alcohol lift. Extremely effervescent with a champagne mouthfeel.
