| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 3, 2009 Thanks kiefdog for the share. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Nose is caramel, apple, malt, pine, and slightly concealed grapefruit. Flavor is lots of malt with some pepper, apple, caramel, sweet hops, and characteristics of a Belgian IPA. Interesting the way this beer dances in both camps- IPA and Tripel. I get the peppery apple and tripel pieces, but I also get IPA hops powering through. Lingering hops. It passes the test- I want more after it’s gone! cgarvieuk (4183), Edinburgh, Scotland

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | May 1, 2009 Bizarre to say the least. Very hazy yellow copper in color. Aroma just screams wheat beer with coriander, lemon, and brett aromas. Palate and flavors are just darn confusing. Is it a Triple, Hef, IPA, wheat beer, or none of the above. Starts out fruity and finishes bitter.... or is it the other way around. Fun yet muddled beer Skyview (4050), Papoose Jct., Minnesota, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 28, 2009 Thanks to ATLBeerDog for bringing this to DLD! Poured slightly hazy medium orange with a nice cap of white head. The aroma picked up spicy, peppery yeast with pineapple upfront.. citrus meat and pale malts not far behind.. fine balance between the Belgian yeast and the hop kick. The flavor was quite sweet with light fruit and pale malts at the core.. grainy sugars stuck on the warm finish.. spicy yeast and pineapple bitterness again gave a complementary performance. Medium-bodied with moderate-+ carbonation.. spicy, tasty, and engaging!
