Commercial Description:
A golden Tripel-style ale. A little lighter in alcohol, but not in flavor, than Westmalle, and more drinkable. It matches the best of Belgium.

11.2 oz bottle [best before 7/04]: hazy dark peach with a tight, creamy white head. . . great complex aroma with full yeast, iron, strongly alcoholic vanilla, soughdough, coriander, sweet/ripe bananas, finely cracked pepper and ainse. Full, sticky mouth feel with tangy, sweet orange flesh, fresh clove sticks, cinnamon, and all spice. Outrageously creamy finish with a nice bitterness and an interesting toasted funkiness. Very fun; very tasty.

Bottle, dated 2002. Pours a hazy orange amber with a volcanic white head that slowly settles into a thin creamy pad. Aromas of apples, cloudberries, and barnyard must. Sweet lively palate of apples, pears, chamomille, hay, and barnyard mustiness. A slightly medicinal finish. Very complex and surprisingly refreshing. I enjoyed this enormously.

This has one of the most unique flavors I have had from a beer. Medium white head with sediment with opaque butterscotch color. Strong Bananas and caramel nose. Citrus spicey yet Malty cultured yeast that taste like meaty liver with onions in there at least that’s what I get out of the hops. Bitter finish. It smells one way and tastes entirely different very complex. Excellent beer.

Poured a small IPA-like head. Nice lacing. Spicy and fruity orange nose and tawny orange body. This was like a fruit cocktail or a tropical pop sickle. Incredible desert-worthy beer. Eggselent!

Bottle courtesy of sonah. Pours amber with a nice white head. Smells of sweet malt, sugar, citrus, some tarte undertones. Tastes of dry malt with some nice orange undertones, pepper, apples, lots of malt character. Mouthfeel is thick and full bodied. Finish yields some hints of straw and hay. I really enjoy this one.

The color is kinda orang and cloudy. Yeasty, sweet malt aroma leads to a big taste. It leaves a bitterness on the bottom of the tongue. A little citrusy and tangy too. Huge brew that doesn’t quit. I should mention that I sampled this at the ’t Ij brewery and it was delicious. (Be sure to get there early enough to grad a table. TIP: take the #10 tram there).

Murky bronze colour. Thick, huge head. Excellent lacing. Yeast-fruity aroma. Lively mouth-feel. Nice fruity (pineapple) flavour. Alcohol-bitter finish.
