Oct 19, 2007 Great rendition of Grand Cru/Abbey Tripel style. The yerba mate definatley gives a buzz after a while.

Sep 13, 2008 22 oz bottle. Pours a nice golden straw color with a small white head. The aroma has hints of pear and vanilla with a strong malt back. The flavor on this beer is amazing. Very complex and many many different layers. The pear and vanilla hints in the aroma come through in the flavor as well, and there is also hints of banana and a slight reminder of angel food cake. Very wonderful. This beer did not drink like an 8.5% triple at all. Very smooth and nice on the palate. Well done!

Apr 29, 2009 1/2 pint on tap at the Falling Rock. The color was a clear golden yellow with a small white head. very nice smell of spices and pepper. The taste had a slightly Belgian yeasty, funk (not sour) at first but was actually very easy to drink and I did not notice the 8% at all. It felt much more like a 6% beer. I prefer this over the regular New Blgium tripel because it didn’t seem as carbonated.

Nov 21, 2007 Very tasty. Wheaty character with some spice. Very strong and definitely Belgian in character. A little yeast on the finish.

Mar 7, 2008 Thanx to BlackForestCo for sending this my way.Poured from a growler.The poured with carbonation and was still fresh.Since i just had the regular tripple, this beer definately was the tripple base.Bananas, clove and spice on the nose.The flavor was the same as the trippel but had a little more spice and hop character to it.The mouthfeel was medium and the finish was refreshing.

Jan 14, 2008 8th Big Beers, Belgians, and Barleywines. Pours clear light yellow with a huge, rocky, white head, lasting with excellent lacing. Aroma is heavy malt (grain, hay, straw), light hops (grass), average yeast (dough, earth) with notes of banana. Medium bodied, oily texture, average carbonation, and a chalky finish. Average duration, moderate sweetness, light acidity and bitterness.

Apr 4, 2008 draft at the brewery - Pours golden with a linger white head. It’s a fairly sweet, citrusy, yeasty brew that I found quite similar to their regular tripel. The main difference I noticed was more obvious spices in this one and it worked for me. I preferred it slightly to their regular tripel.

May 4, 2008 2008 Boulder Strong Ale Fest: Light golden. Lively carbonation. Sticky malts (honey-like). Yerba mate was slightly noticeable ... earthy, faintly smoky, tea-like. In some ways it was mead-like, and in other ways it was white wine-like. Herbal aromas were pleasant. Yeast seemed to contribute well. Not too shabby.
