Pours amber with a thin white head, very clear. This tasted like a cross between a double and a trippel. Had the sweetness of a double up front but finished very dry and citrus spicey like a trippel. Finish had a bit of a wine flavor to it, lots of fruits as well, plum and orange peel.

Portland Holiday Ale Festival 2004. Slightly cloudy golden colour with a thin white head. Very fruity aroma, berry, banana, spicy. Flavour is quite sweet with lots of banana, light berry and a touch of bubble gum. No perceptible hoppiness. Quite good.
