Slick (1959), Thief River Falls, Minnesota, USA Feb 12, 2004 Orange/brown color,lots of small yeasties suspended throughout this brew.The head was foamy white and short lived but managed to leave a decent lace behind.The aroma was Fruity and sweet with a slight sourish side,citrusy and floral as hell.Nice malt taste then fruit comes on in a nice way,citrusy and mildly spicy with a decent fruity sweet after taste.The finish is nicely done and highly drinkable with the alcohol being hardly noticeable.Very much well worth trying this brew if you can.

This tastes Like a Rochefort 9. Yes I said nine on purpose. Thick, raisiny, yeasty, syrupy, sweet, balanced, superb. That this is a tripel is flooring. Wow. Gypsy19 (287), Sacramento County, California, USA Dec 31, 2008 750-milliliter bottle. Pours a cloudy orange-amber with a generous, fluffy head. Aroma has that rotten garbage sweet smell that seems to be common of tripels and dubbels. Flavor is good with dark fruits and apricot and is only slightly bready. Alcohol burn is modest, on par with its 10% ABV. Good overall, but not a world-class performance in my opinion. mikkopen (161), Oulu, Finland Dec 26, 2008 750 ml bottle. Clear orange colour, big off-white head. Fruity aroma, with apples, citrus and a whiff of alcohol. Caramel malts, plenty of fruits, a little yeast and a nicely warming, dry hoppy finish. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied and smooth. Rciesla (1580), Brick City, New Jersey, USA Dec 25, 2008 Bottle. Pours an orange amber body with a big off white creamy head. Lots of fruit latent alcohol, citrus, apricots. Finish is dry with a hint of wood. Good brew.
