CapFlu (3292), Victoria, British Columbia, Canada Apr 18, 2006 (Draught) Sampled at American Flatbread on April 13, 2006. Again, this beer was oily in texture. It had an iodine and nail polish nose and the flavour was quite coy with a malty sweet burnt caramel and undertones of buckwheat (as mentioned below). Little detection of the ABV. Not my idea of a tripel, as its somewhat of a lifeless malt body without the yeastiness and candy.
mkobes (2027), somewhere, New Jersey, USA Sep 4, 2006 On tap at Sputyen Duyvil. Yellow straw in color with a nice fluffy white head. Hoppy and fruity aroma. Candi sugar notes. Floral and earthy hops. Malty spicey and hoppy flavor. Sugary sweet tasting. Finish is spicey and. Medium bodied. Drinkable. notalush (2036), Rawn-kawn-kohma, New York, USA Aug 27, 2006 On tap at Spuyten Duyvil - nice clear straw color out of the tap - wonderfully full aroma, with perfume-like floral and hop notes, bright fruity esters (pear,strawberry), and some belgian yeast and candi sugar - after the aroma, the flavor is disappointing - overly sweet, with a sugar-covered fruits kind of flavor, a mellow spiciness - finishes a little on the thin side - decent, but I wouldn’t drink it again. Lubiere (3266), Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Jul 16, 2006 Golden ale with a thick creamy white head. Light berry notes, strawberries to be exact, and not much else. Rather sweet cloying malt with loads of strawberries, some nutty notes. Again, a oily mouthfeel, with butttery overtones. On tap at BCTC 2006. Miguel (1181), Sorel-Tracy, Quebec, Canada May 8, 2006 En fût au American Flatbread, Burlington, VT. Robe cuivrée légèrement voilée surmontée d’une mousse blanche en dentelle qui s’estompe.
