| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 23, 2007 Poured a hazy blonde-golden body with a tiny whitish head. Mildly tart with hints of oak tannins. Finished crisp and slightly sweet. Captivating and quaffable. bhensonb (4367), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Dec 20, 2007 Draft at the brewpub (as Belgian Style Tripel Ale). Sweetish Belgian spice aroma. Bright golden color with a white head. Medium body with very smooth carbonation. Sweet caramel, low impact spice, touch of vanilla, perhaps floral or grassy hop. Leaves the mouth tingling. Should be a sipper. SuzyGreenberg (1408), Seattle, Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 25, 2007 Updated: Oct 15, 2009draft @ brew pub - cloudy gold with white head; citrus, spice and malt aroma mix; strong yeast flavors are bitter and mixed with spices; a little uneven and unpleasant aftertaste (3.3 overall)
10/15/09 Update: draft @ brewery - soft, straw gold; super dank nose of fruit, wheat (of which Ron says the beer has none), yeast and oak; lots of fruity sweetness and finish is not very dry; enjoyed it much more this time around Ungstrup (15382), Frederiksberg, Denmark
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 12/20 | Oct 10, 2007 Draft at Bailey’s Taproom, Portland. A hazy golden beer with a thick beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of spices, wheat, and oranges. The flavor is very sweet - a bit too much for my liking, with notes of spices, yeast, oranges, and peaches, leading to a dry wheaty finish. A bit too much for me. boFNjackson (1321), Portland, Oregon, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 17, 2007 PIB... Golden color with a thick, fizzy, white head. Strong presence of apples and other fruits. The beer also contains lasting malt, and a bit of a honey aftertaste. The beer was pretty yeasty as a whole. Skyview (4077), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jul 13, 2007 Sampled on tap at the brewery during ABA Beer Tour ’07. Pours a hazy golden pale blonde brew with a fast dissolving white head that leaves behind a white ring. Aroma of banana esters, light bready malt with a touch of grassy hops. Taste is smooth, creamy and sweet with fruity banana and citrus flavors. Medium body with no carbonation. Finish is somewhat syrupy, sweet with a slight mellon aftertaste. Almost a fruit beer character than a tripel. Very tastey though. beerinmarch (2829), Washington, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 16, 2007 Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a soft white head. Not as dry as most tripels and lacked a bit of carbonation. Very fruity start with a big yeast estery finish. Hints of citrus and a light grassy hop finish. The spices and crisp finish were very refreshing.
