donteatpoop (112), Youngstown, Ohio, USA May 25, 2008 Poured a cloudy amber color with a little bit of white head resting at the top. The head didn’t last all that long, but a thin layer of lace was left behind on the glass.
Smells a bit fruity and hoppy and an underlying bananna scent.
The taste is much the same, the bananna flavor and the hops... Tastes a little wheaty as well.
The carbonation level seemed adequate, a nice full body in the mouth. The over all palatial experience was excellent.
I wouldn’t mind drinking this one down more regularly.
Serving type: bottle
nqualls (205), Tennessee, USA Sep 4, 2008 Poured a gold color into a tulip glass with a small off white head. Aroma of fruit, and spices (cloves and nutmeg?). Flavor was very spicy with a warming alcohol hint at the end. Good tripel. I wouldn’t proclaim is as great though. Geth_in_beer (671), Nova Scotia, Canada Aug 23, 2008 Bottle. Bitter, fresh spicy aroma. amber looking beer, very thin lace. fruity, hit with spice. Strong alcohol hit also. syrupy texture with a spicy finish. Little yeasty. Yeah. Not bad. Not my favourite style, but I’ve had better I feel. BeerGestapo (322), Windsor, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 21, 2008 (USA) Courtesy of AFI96, thanks Waylo !!! Pours a nice golden color with sm-white head. The aroma was hard to smell at first, but once it warmed up a bit it had some sweet candy notes. The taste was of spices and sugar !! Overall, it was a pretty good triple, and the 9% well hidden very well. afireinside96 (428), Mountville, Pennsylvania, USA Aug 20, 2008 Golden color liquid with a small but lasting white head. Smells of light spice, orange, candy. Tastes the same but with spice being more prominent. A bit too sweet, almost cloying. Still a very good beer. GMUcrew7 (183), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA Aug 15, 2008 Pours nice cloudy golden color with a small white head. Very fruity aroma, with hints of nutmeg, and cloves. Wide array of flavors, yeasty initially, followed by the spice and sweet fruit flavors and the alcohol is slightly noticeable at the finish. Full bodied with a dry finish. Not one of my favorite styles of beer, but this is a pretty good representation of the style.
