Bottle 35cl. Aroma is really spicey with some banana notes. Taste is spicey with lots of fruity notes,not the best tripel but still very good,

Aug 29, 2008 Pours hazy golden yellow with a thick white head that held on, eventually leaving a solid cover and excellent lacing. Strong, complex aromas of sugary ripe fruit - peaches and pears come to mind. Also some alcoholic esters and yeast are evident. Fantastic taste of peppery clove and other spices, aforementioned fruits, and sweet malts on the finish. Slight hops bitterness brings it all together in the end. Medium to full bodied, very nice caqrbonation, soft pillowy mouthfeel, and the alcohol is exceptionally warming. This is terrific.

does not count  Aug 29, 2008 750ml bottle. NIce white head- not rocky but firm and lacing stays on glass nicely. Nicely carbonated, lots of bubbles, straw coloring. Mild and pleasing aroma, spicy with some mile hoppyness. NIce taste with a mild bite of bitterness.
A nice beer for the price.

does not count Aug 28, 2008 cloudy and light colour with a big head. Complex fruity and bready flavours. Interesting aftertaste, almost tasted like baked beans, in the best possible way. A very good beer.

Aug 27, 2008 Another exquisite brew from these guys, I have enjoyed all of these so far... I also get the TJ versions too... starts with a sizable head that settles to a 3/4 finger head/lacing with fine champagne like effers, very nice aromas of candied dried apricots, citrus zest, baking spices and some bready yeast, almost white ale like but with heavier malting and fruitiness... this may not be the traditional triple but go for it anyways, it won’t dissappoint... flavors are a complex balanced creamy blend of apricots, peaches, citrusy zest some ginger and nutmeg like spices... the fruits expell themselves on the light creamy finish... I like this one a lot.

Aug 26, 2008 Poured out of a bottle created a head so big I only got 3/4 of the bottle. The head died down to a solid finger that stayed throughout the rest of the glass. The color is a very attractive cloudy dark maize.
Very complex and smooth aroma, with an alcoholic warmth to finish.
Taste is fantastic. Very complex fruity flavor up front with clove and spice on the back end and I can’t taste the alcohol, which is quite impressive for its 9% abv.
Palate is also fantastic, it is very thick, rich, and dare say creamy. It goes down exceptionally smoothly and leaves your mouth watering for the next sip.
Overall this beer is fantastic. With the ratings so high for everything else, how could my overall score be any less?
