GABF 2008. Apparently this took gold medal this year. Spicy estery aroma, dried straw, chamomile, apricots and yeast. Sweet palate, more fruit than in the aroma, still tons of spice, with a peppery finish. A little too sweet, but otherwise quite nice.

Always a good beer whenever I go to Main St. Nice medium color. Slight sweetness, and not too acidic going down. Very nice.

Hazy blonde. Flowery, bubblegummy nose. Plastic, nail polish, bubblegum and icing sugar. Typically poor US tripel, I really had trouble choking this one back.

Slight haze to the blonde body, thin white head. yeasty aroma of banana cheesecake. Flavors include some clove and white pepper. Unfortunately, nail polish creeps in. Silky palate.
