750 ml corked and caged bottle. Pours a hazy golden color topped by a small creamy white head. Nice Belgian lace. Yeasty citrus malt aroma. Soft complex lemony malt flavor upfront. Spicy, yeasty malt flavor. Smooth and drinkable. Has a creamy mouthfeel. Finishes slightly dry with a slight tart aftertaste. Nicely done.

Bottle at Ritz Carlton, Orlando, 18th November 13. OK Tripel, I was not really in the mood for this. Well rounded, some spice, it was fine, but pretty much the same as many of these boring Belgian style beers

Bottle - Golden in colour. Spice, malty and hints of deep heat (a muscular rub!) in the aroma. Sweet, spicy and fruity taste with notes of lemon, yeast, spice and a warming finish.

Poured from a bottle it is a cloudy golden Colorado with a vanishing white head. The aroma is spicy with a hint of banana and citrus. The taste is very lively with strong effervescence that resonated on the palate with a banana overtones and citrus and cardamom.

From a 12 oz bottle shared in Avon NC. Pours an orange tinged cloudy gold with a thick, but a quickly receding, head. Aroma of tropical fruits and cardamom. Flavors of bubblegum. Lots of carbonation. Crisp finish.

Bubbly, cloudy, gold...finely whipped white head. Light, fruity, yeasty aroma. Spiced banana, clove. Very light and airy feel for the ABV. Only a hint of alcohol presence or bitter. Very nice.

At a Victory tasting event on tap at Qbrick... the day after an Epic event at Tadg’s. It pours a crystal clear gold. A nice fruity belgian style ale but I think I preferred Epic’s Brainless Belgian...
