| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 18/20 | Apr 7, 2009 Interesting tripel. Definitely has a strong banana flavor that is slightly sweet but not overpowering. Slightly spicy too. Good stuff and a rare find too! tjthresh (1778), Greenfield, Indiana, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 5, 2009 22 ounce bottle from JohnnyJ. Pours very hazy peach nectar orange with no head. The aroma is loaded with citrus type aromas with a bit of a sweet candy sugar note. The flavor is big with banana and a bit of herbal/spicy hoppy notes. Medium body with decent carbonation. Dry malty finish. Not bad at all. beachbum25 (797), Powellville, Maryland, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 4, 2009 22oz Bomber-Secret Santa-clear golden color w/a small, quickly diminishing head & good lacing. Light sweet aroma. Flavors of yeast, banana, candied sugar, spice, & a touch of floral hops. Maybe a little bit of citrus or orange peel. Solid brew, enjoyable, kind of a "standard" Belgian, maybe a little bit of a letdown as some of these Stone brews get such a buildup-particularly in this area where they can be hard to get-that, fair or not, you expect them all to be spectacular or overwhelming. I’d like to try this on tap or maybe w/a few years on it to compare the differences. Long, sweet, dry finish. BuckeyeBoy (1670), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 1, 2009 Bottle Pours out a clear yellow topped with a small sand head. Aroma was of light sweetness and banana. Tast was more of the sweetness some corn (kind of odd) more of the banana and a nice spice. Thanks Toby TheEpeeist (1466), Swarthmore, Pennsylvania, USA

Aromas are typical yeast, floral, belgian, and spice. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is heavy on the yeast, clove, white pepper, orange peel, banana, and finishes dry. Overall a solid brew. pinkzambia (989), Boise, Idaho, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 17, 2009 Bottle: Clear gold color. Classic Belgian - tons of yeast and way too banana-ee for my palate. It’s probably a good representation of the style, but not my cup of tea. Wait? Ummm. gunhaver (1027), Tampa, Florida, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Mar 15, 2009 Bottle, courtesy markwise. Clear yellowish bronze pour, thick lacing and smooth soft white head. Funky nose, some spicy notes, honey. Flavor has a dry yeasty slight funk, with some orange peel and spicy elements. Smooth and drinkable, kind of a saisony-tripel thing.
