Bottle at D’s SixPax’s & Dogz (Monroeville). Pours a honey, orange color, very little white head. Aroma is sweet and citrusy, a touch of spices. Flavor is lemon, orange and a touch of caramel.

Draft at Muddy Pig. Pours a cloudy/thick honey yellow with close to no head. mostly just white lacing. Aroma is light of caramel and nuts. Flavor is frosted caramel with yeast notes. Very light fruit undertone--strawberry. Body is medium with fair-standard carbonation.

nice and spicy, who needs duvel for 8 bucks a bottle when i got this for 4.50, don’t drive if you drink this simian, you can easily put away 3-4 of these in less than an hour and with 9.5% etoh you will be very happy. Probably the best example of the american belgian trippel that i’ve tried so far. PLEASE INCREASE YOUR DISTRUBUTION!! i’m so sick of these macro brews peddling their piss water when there is stuff like this out there

Lovely head, and the beer... has flakes of floaties! I love it! Cloudy orange/yellow color. Smells like a hefeweizen, a little like lemon/citrus? Grapefruit, maybe? No se. Very fun to drink. Warming on the back of the throat. Almost like an imperial wheat... is that possible? Didn’t really remind me of an abbey tripel, but if that’s what they want to call it... then I suppose it is. Highly recommended, though.

bottle. A little too sweet for my taste. Not awful, but wouldn’t want more than one. Average.

Strange that I found such a sour ale so refreshingly enjoyable. The aroma smelled strongly of tropical fruit like guava, mango, peach and citrus, along with rich wheat fragrance. The flavor was strong coriander and lemon rind/peel, along with a musty and woody yeast taste, with an astringently sweet aftertaste. The ale had a smooth and velvety mouthfeel as a result of low bitterness and carbonation. It seems odd that this beer is classified as a Tripel because of the sourness. The beer is lemon yellow in color with a wall of bubble lacing.

Little aroma. It really seems like a saison to me. A little too yeasty and spicy to me. Nice alcohol warming and very full bodied and smooth.

Not as much of an aroma as I expected. A deep orangey golden color, very cloudy. Fizzy head. Really warm spicy flavor with notes of exotic fruit and spices. Bottle
