Pours gold with a white, lasting fluffy head. Smells of citrus, some dry malt, some perfumy hints. Tastes of citrus, some sweet candi sugar, grassy, spicy. Enjoyable.

Bottle from Crown #19. Pours hazy pale yellow with fading bubbly white head. Nose is similar to a wheat wine with citrus hints. Taste is full and juicy, orange pokes out among other citrus flavors. Lots of sweet yeast and candy. A solid effort from the locals.

Bottle from Crown #19. Poured clear golden color with an average frothy white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate yeast, sweet malt and small fruity aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and lively carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. Good drinkable beer that is average for style.

12oz bottle from StFun - thanks, Josh! Hazy golden pour with modest carbonation. Faint spice in the aroma with some sweet candied malts and pert fruity esters. Body is crisp and just a bit thin. The flavors are nice, and fairly balanced as well. Slight peppery tang in the finish. Pretty solid tripel.

12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy golden color with a thin whit head that leaves some lacing. Aroma of classic belgium yeast, clove, honey, candy, and a little citrus. Flavor is along the same line with a bit of sweetness and more citrus. Good fizzy carb, med body, light syrupy texture, sweet and smooth finish. This beer is almost too drinkable for as big as it is (around 10% or so), so careful they go down easy and the alcohol is completely hidden untill afterwards.

bottle - Pours hazy gold with almost no head and very fine suspended yeast. It smells mainly of yeast and citrus. The flavor is sweet and citrus-laden with obvious yeast presence. It finishes smoothly and the alcohol content is mostly buried. Solid.

Appearance: Pours a clear, deep yellow body with a small, bubbly, white head. Smell: Aroma is a mishmash of notes smelling of pale malts, banana, clove, yeast, candi sugar, sauvignon blanc, and ginger. There ya go! Taste: Candyish palt maltiness with minor tastes of banana and clove. Splash of white wine. Slight yeastiness. No apparent bitterness. Remains sweet until the very tailend of the finish. Lingering taste of ginger. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Slight stickiness to the mouthfeel. Drinkability: Good, though a bit on the sweeter side for tripels. I’d certainly be up for another.
