UPDATED: DEC 12, 2021 Bottle from Total Wine in Altamonte Springs, FL. Aroma is bread, mild spiced bready things. Taste is more bread, some smooth oatiness. Not especially interesting or Belgian like but pleasant enough.

UPDATED: NOV 14, 2021 Bottle. A- Banana, clove. A- Golden bronze color, clear liquid, white head. T- Banana, bubble gum, mild honey, mild spice. P- Medium body, average texture, average carbonation, balanced finish. O- Unexpectedly delightful. Loads of banana, bubble gum, and mild spice. Really came as a surprise.

UPDATED: JUN 12, 2021 Very nice beer with notes of Beglian abbey style. Quite well-brewed and heavy shape.

UPDATED: APR 25, 2021 12oz bottle courtesy of Headbanger poured into a Tulip. Color is a murky orange with a deep haze and lots of chunky floaties. Carbonation is low giving it a thin tight white head. Aroma has a note of toffee and a metallic like scent. It has a medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Flavor is light caramel and a hint of yeasty banana backed by a very mild bitterness. Aftertaste leaves you with a Belgian yeast spice and a touch of bitterness lingering. Overall this is not one of the better Tripels I've had, it's drinkable but just not a good Tripel.

UPDATED: APR 23, 2021 This is a backlog rating from 2008 from a bottle, from notes. When I had this beer it was average to below average for the style and not something I wanted to have again or I just didn't get back to my notes because of my technology at the time, work and/or family. Words to describe this beer are citrus and apple fruit character, moderately sweet malts, light spice, ok.

UPDATED: MAR 27, 2021 Pours a clear medium yellow with a full slightly off white head with lacing. Nose is fruity with a hint of Belgian yeast. Taste is fruity sweet with wheat apparent. Bitterness is fleeting. Mouthfeel is medium. 12 oz bottle packaged on 1/5/21 3/21 Beer Across America Selection

UPDATED: FEB 24, 2021 Bottle. Courtesy of rennat42. Thank you Tanner. Pour was copper with a quick white head. Aroma of honey, yeast, banana, apricot, fruit. Taste was sweet, banana, fruit, apricot, mild spices, citrus.

Perky gold-copper beer with a thin white head and loads of rising bubbles. Nose of chewing gum, lemon, and lavender. Flavor is a bit spicier with white pepper, lemongrass, and cloves over a sweet core of candied orange and cotton candy. The spice evens out the sweetness, but it does get a bit cloying after a while. Decent.

pours a rich clear gold with a decent off white head. Big yeasty aroma. slightly sweet with spice notes. warming alcohol finish. Not my style, but not bad.

UPDATED: MAR 18, 2018 Usual yeasty aroma. Pour dissipates quickly without much lacing. Nice flavor profile. Clove, spicy sweetness.
