Jun 4, 2008 Sampled at Cellars Wine & Spirits in St Paul, Minnesota. Pours a hazy golden brew with a thick white head that has some nice retention, spotty lacing that dissipates toa fine film and thin ring. Aroma of golden multi-grain malt, coriander, banana ester, candi sugar and a touch of orange zest. Taste is creamy, malty, light carbonation with flavors of Belgian yeast, candi sugar, coriander and some orange peel. Finish is slighlty spicy, some banana esters and a touch of white pepper. According to past ratings from two years ago it looks like Two Brothers have tweaked the recipe making this a fine Tripel to come out of America. Nice to see Two Brothers brought this one out of retirement after two years.

Aug 12, 2006 A golden color with a quick fizzy head. A promising aroma of bananas leads to a citrus/peach flavor. Unfortunately it was sooooo sour that it burned my stomach. If I was going to have a triple (which I do alot), this would not be my top pick.

May 22, 2006 Hazy blonde al with a thcik white head. Light coriander malt aroma, with light orange notes. In mouth, sour lactic notes overpowers the light candy sugar of the malt. Some orange peels noted, but the stringent sourness makes this a biut unpleasant. Guys, stick to the british style.

Apr 19, 2006 Bottle: Dirty straw in color, very cloudy, thin white foamy head, spotty lacing. Grassy aroma, fairly floral, some fiery spices, almost like garlic. Muted floral flavors, very yeasty/bready. Slight citrus aspect, but its very quick. Body and mouthfeel are moderate, but leans towards the thin side. Finishes with a touch of cereal, soft floral aspect. Remains semi-sweet after the finsih. Tiz okay, but not like most Belgian Tripels. Thanks JCaprioti for the trade!

Jan 17, 2006 Pour is hazy bright golden yellow with a thin dense white head that left good lacing...smell is perfumey and spicy with some nice yeasty character too...thin mouthfeel...taste is way sweet and citric at first with a strange sour flavor...no real depth to the flavor at all...no real spices to taste...just a cloying sweetness like when you finish a lemon drop candy and are really thirsty all at the same time...for 8%+ the alcohol is well hidden...
