Clear orange/golden color with hardly any head at all. Somewhat faint aroma, but some peach, malt, banana, and a hint of spice. Somewhat sour in the flavor, but nothing overwhelming. Pretty complex, some green apple, spice, and other fruits in the taste. A fairly good beer, and worth trying! Had this on tap at Union Jack's in Knoxville, TN!

Nice belgian waft to the aroma, with a yeasty smell. Light brown, very smooth flavor. Light and heavy all at once. Good beer.

Amber and headless. Coriander, clove, and those little colored crystals used on cakes in the nose. A bit of peachfuzz, and green apple in the the thick taste. spices everywhere, yet the underlying caramel sweetness stayed with it until the aftertaste. Some alcohol, too, very warming.

Mostly yellow - gold, maybe a touch darker. Winey, floral aromas. Big malty flavor, fruity (banana ?) flavors as well. ddries out nicely at the finish. More a Duvel - style golden than a triple? Pretty good.
