Smell hops, wheat, grass. Thick mouthfeel. Taste is similar to smell with strong hops and alcohol finish.
Very enjoyable tripel.

Jun 20, 2008 Poured with a thick white head and hazy golden color. Strong citrus aroma. Aroma, flavor and palate combined to make me think of orange peels. Carbonated feel on the tongue with a tinge of an alcohol after taste.

Jun 20, 2008 Aroma is much simpler than the taste. Slightly fruity/lemony with a nice simple malt background. This is beer is very flavorful. Tastes very sugary like candied nuts mixed with fruit candy (watermelon, strawberry, and bit of lemon). Some alcohol comes through here. However, the palate is surprisingly dry and crisp and the finish is nice and clean with a good amount of bitterness. Very flavorful and tasty, but it’s almost too much, especially for something so dry and crisp. Carbonation is nice and the body is right on, but again, the palate doesn’t match the beer.

Jun 19, 2008 Bottle into chalice. Pours cloudy gold, with a massive, pillowy white head. Aroma is candied sugar, spicy yeast, some citrus. taste is candy sweetness, beautifully spicy yeast, overripe fruit and a yeasty, alcohol bitterness. Finish carries a clean bitterness, spicy sweetness, rich fruitiness. Sticky, but with a crisp carbonation. beautifully complex, yet balanced. Superb.

Jun 18, 2008 Updated: May 19, 2009Cloudy golden with floating sediment and thick white foamy cream head that lightly laces as it thins. Yeasty citrus aroma. Bubbly, crisp yet smooth, bitter alcohol yeast. Reminds me of a harsher Duvel. Clean aftertaste. Gets better as it warms.

Jun 17, 2008 Good looking hazy orange beer with a nice big white head. Aroma is very spicy, where hints of oranges, yeast and some spices are most apparent. First thing that hits you when drinking this is the very apparent alcohol. Unfortunately it feels a bit like they’ve chosen to go with a higher alcohol presence than hops here. Not one of my favorite tripels exactly. Very good beer for smelling and looking at though...

Jun 15, 2008 Cloudy golden brown with good, creamy white head / Skunky nose of sour bananas / Medium to full body, sweet and moderately thick malts, with fair finish / Flavors of musty, skunky fruit with caramel and spice notes / Not at all in character for a tripel - bad bottle?
