The head seems to take the exact reverse shape of the glass, I’ve not seen that before, strange. Hops appear first in the nose, followed by untamed alcohol, peaches and pears, juniper, bready malts( I keep noticing this in Malheur beers ). Flavor is hoppier still, and while the hops are on the mellow, pleasing side, they seem to linger throughout the taste. Other flavors noted are lemonade, molasses and honey, along with more soft citrus fruits. Palate is medium bodied, warming and luxurious. Finish fades ever so slowly until all I can taste is alcohol and resiny hop oils. Quite delicious, quite different, glad to have tried this one. Quinten (971), zaandam, Netherlands

Very unique. Concord or muscat flavor, with spices. Sweet, with nice hop flavor but low bitterness but nice dryness. Really interesting--one of the most unique beers I’ve tried lately. Love it.

Sweet aroma... with a flavor of the same... not boring like some Triple’s... hints of honey and grape with warming alcohol power that is well balanced Belgian22 (6), Deerfield, Massachusetts, USA does not count | 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Dec 23, 2008 First try at Hope & Olive in Greenfield MA. Didnt know anything about it other than it was a Belgian Ale. The staff didnt have a clue, but what a treat it turned out to be! Almost like a more zesty cousin of La Fin Du Monde, or an extra spicy relative of Duvel. They now carry this at Ryan & Caseys. Grab one now.
