Thanks for bringing a growler to share, Steve.
We both poured it into chalices.
The appearance was a nice glossy orange to amber with some light red tinges gracing the coloring of this beer. The head was about a finger’s worth of white foaminess leading to a somewhat speckled lacing all around.
The smell had that nice \"iced apple\"-ness I usually get from a fair amount of Tripels I’ve had and that leads into a decent sweet sticky spicy coriander/citrusy aspect that is really nice.
The taste was there - mainly spicy and sweet with that \"iced apple\" sort of conglomeration going on. I like it and honestly, I think that’s all that matters.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium in body with a fairly decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was fairly subdued but honestly good for the style.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good Tripel I could do again.
