| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 4, 2005 Pours to the most gorgeous bronze/copper/gold color imaginable. It’s very nice. The medium white head disapated to a dishwater looking head with excellent lacing. Yet, it still gleans a 5 on appearance. It’s just that pretty. The aroma is huge. Floral, perfume, caramel, spices. The aroma is well mixed for what it is and it doesn’t put me off like most floral/perfumey beers. The flavor is also quite good. Flowers, caramel malts, candi sugar, lemongrass, also a banana-bread-like quality. The palate is good. Slightly warming with a medium mouthfeel. I wonder if they’ve changed the recipe since it’s inception, because I think this one’s quite better than a 3.37. richlikebeer (832), Easton, Pennsylvania, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 12, 2005 12 oz bottle - Pours amber cloudy with a short white head. Aroma is of grapes, caramel malts, and just a touch of hops. Flavor comes acrossed quite sweet. Grapes, banannas, some sweet caramel malts and a touch of spice. On the palate this is medium bodied and the alcohol can be found with the warmth of each sip. Not bad. haddon90 (1036), Alexandria, Virginia, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jun 6, 2005 Thanks to Jeremy (jgb9348) for giving me this beer! Pours a hazy orange/amber color with a small head that laces fairly well around the glass. Sweet aroma, with grapes, caramel, and a hint of sugar. Sweet, sugary taste with a little bit of alcohol that rolls off your tongue. Again, the grapes. Some malts as well. Overall well balanced and a decent tripel in my opinion.

Taste is slightly bitter with sugar, cognac, and raisins shining through. Slightly metallic on the finish. Not bad, but not what I’ve come to expect of trippel. Tmoney99 (4778), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA
