[bomber, from the brewpub] Clear, very pale yellow in color. Aroma is mostly yeast esters and very sweet candi sugar. Flavors are fruity, delicious yeast character; apples, pear and some clove spice. Very mellow alcohol presence. Finishes spicy and somewhat sweet.

Appears a transparent gold with a small white head that quickly fades into a mild cap. Tiny amounts of CO2 rise to the top.
Smell is of red apple, apricot, pear, honey, and ripe melon, along with some spiced, doughy yeast.
Taste is slightly better than the aromas with a doughy, citrusy, slightly tart flavor.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, lowly carbonated, warming with booz, cidery, sweet up front, finishing with a semi-dry pear juice flavor.

Aug 1, 2007 Sampled from 22oz bottle courtesy of weeare138. Poured a medium and lightly hazy golden color with a smaller sized white head. Aromas of lots of apples (red declicious with some green tart), yeast, and spices. Tastes of fruitiness, bready, and spices.

Jul 31, 2007 Thanks to weeare138 for sharing this one. Guess it has been brought out of retirement? Pours a translucent golden orange with a smaller bubbly white head. Aroma of coriander, bready, bubblegum, sweet and sugary, some other variuos Belgian spices. Something slightly off. Flavor of bready malts, grassy, various Belgian spices, corriander, kind of water yet has a sticky sweetness.

Aug 24, 2002 Head drops off faster than some of the other trippels. Very tasty. Definitely try it if they have it on tap.
