Golden color, thick white head, highly carbonated. Sweet, citrusy aroma. Definately notice the yeast in this one, as is apparently appropriate to the style. Slightly sweet, with a light citrus flavor. Dry. A very enjoyable beer.

Thanks to Skyview for sharing. Pours a nice almost pinkish golden amber color. Odd funky sweet nose with a good dose of wheaty spiciness. Nice full balanced creamy mouthfeel with a good dose of honey and yeasty spiciness.

22 oz bottle. Yep, its more like a dubbel, but its wonderful any way you slice it. Dark amber, clear medium head; just fabulous vanilla caramel coffee aromas, very strong sweet and complex. Buttery sweet, full and yeasty on the tongue, smooth lasting full finish.

Thanks to... hmm, could it be Skyview? Yup! Hazy gold color with no head. A very full aroma of oranges, yeast, spiciness and just enough coriander to let you know it’s probably there. And indeed, it is. Not massively, but more than a hint. Also bready and yeasty. Very, very good.

Another from Skyview. This is really good and it reminds me of Chouffe Houblon, with similar flavors, even though they are not as intense in this beer. Lots of hops in the aroma and the flavor. The flavor also has considerable sugar and light spice including citrus, with the result being something like sweet hop juice with Belgian yeast, and the combination works quite well.

Bottle: Courtesy of The_Enemy via a bonus box. Aroma of caramel, brown sugar, and apple. Pours a bright transparent amber with a small off-white head. Caramel, butterscotch, brown sugar, and yeast. Very light hints of apple in the background. Finishes with a lighlty nutty and bitter finish. Sticky mouthfeel.

12 oz bottle from iowaherkeye. Thanks Joey. Poured a slightly hazy medium orange color. Head was thick and off white with good retention and lacing. Pleasant aroma of banana and clove with a dash of brown sugar. The delicate sweetness up front strengthened somewhat toward the end and was accompanied by dry spices and mild to moderate bitterness that balanced out the sugars. In addition to clove and subdued banana, warm alcohol and plum rounded out the flavors. Pretty good representative of the style.

A medium hazy copper pour. Small quickly fading head and decent carbonation and moderate lacing. Aroma is spices, bananna, coriander and malts. Flavor is pretty big on the spice. Also ripened fruits, malts, wheat. I thought it was a fine example of a Tripel.
