Sep 4, 2008 650 ml. Slight haze on the amber-orange beer with a three-finger, creamy cap. Frosting all over the glass. Aroma is slight, but mostly toffee and light citrus. Flavors of cantaloupe, caramel, orange-lemon, vanilla, oak and woody-grassy hops. Light-medium body is extremely smooth, softly carbonated and slightly dry.

Aug 31, 2008 Picked up at Green’s in Greenville, South Carolina, as New Holland is yet to make it down in Georgia. The color of the pour looked good with a pale golden, hazy body, but the carbonation was pathetic for the style, and formed nearly no head at all. The smell was good with a mix of light perfume and booze. The was good to start off as there was hop bitterness, yeasty earthiness, and some funk, but mid sip the honeydew melon like sweetness took over the taste. The finish was spicy-bitter-earthy, but a little too short lived. The body felt right in terms of viscosity, but the relative lack of carbonation made it feel dull and less full of zest. The brewery gave this a decent effort, but came up just a little short.

Aug 29, 2008 22 oz. bottle: pours golden and has a good head and lacing, aroma of Belgian yeast, grain and candi suigar and maybe some honey, very sweet flavor is balanced by a fair malt taste and a moderate bitterness, nice Belgian flavors all around, a good beer but rather pricey.

Aug 24, 2008 Sample from bottle at Dayton Ale Fest. Dark golden nice white head. Aroma is mostly yeast, spices, and some floral hops. Flavor is malty, sweet, and yeast with a nice hop balance. A pretty good tripel, better than others I’ve tried.

Aug 20, 2008 Bottle. I think this beer is extremely underrated. Clear copperish golden pour with a beatiful pillowy white head and gorgeous lacing. Aroma came through with some unexpected floral hops, caramel malt, yeast, and banana notes. Flavor was overall sweet but slightly set off by a little bitterness. Palate is silky smooth, mild carbonation, and very drinkable. It blows my mind that this receives a 3.33 and a 72 percentile overall. It deserves better especially when comparing it to Unibroue La Fin Du Monde.

Aug 19, 2008 Sampled from bottle: Beer pours a clear amber colour with a fairly large off white head. Aroma is sweet, carmel, toffee, bannana and oranges. Mouthfeel is full, well carbonated. Taste is a tad on the sweet side, takes no time in hiding the evident alcohol taste.
