Tap @ Raccoon Lodge: Pours a light golden color with a nice off-white head and good lacing. Aroma is spicey and fruity with just a light yeast note. Tastes spicey and fruity with some sweet and tart notes. Oak aged hops, wth? This has a really mellow hop note with just a bit of citrus and florals. Light yeast and retains a crisp level of spices. This was different, but good.

Not this was a nice tasty tripel. Nose of cereal grains, sweet fruityness, sugary sweetness, a little dust, and some spicy yeast. Pouts a golden tone with a thin head. Nice sweet cereal grains, straw, dust, yeasty, fruity sweetness. Nice bubbly carbonation and a lingering dryness from the bubbles.

Green Dragon Pub NYE 07 with Bikesandbeer and his gf Jessi. Draft. @ Green Dragon Pub in Portland Oregon. Guessing this is what this was, listed as Cascade tempter tripel. Pours gold with a bright white ring for a head. Sweet Yeasty Nose. Taste is sweet citrus with a nice body. Nice tripel.

draft @ 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

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.

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.
