341ml bottle. Pours a clear orange-gold with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves curtains of lace. Sweet aroma of pale malt, Belgian yeast, apple and banana. Sweet flavour of grainy pale malt, yeast, apple, banana, bubble gum, sugar, vegetal and light spice with a dry, boozy finish. Medium body with a sticky texture and average carbonation. Meh.

Draft - Sweet and light bready herbal notes. Clear gold with a decent white head. Light sweet pale malts with a touch of a bready note.

Bright. Touch of copper. Hmmm, not the classic look. Thin head. Light phenols on the nose, some vague fruity esters as well. Sticky. Hit of alcohol in the finish. Low bitterness for the style and underattenuated. Argh, typical sticky North American tripel...that’s not the style.

Draught at the brewery
Clean golden to copper color. Mild smell of Marseille soap. Good body strength, good malt base, delicate, biscuity, with traces of toffee, but also very strong perfumy esters from the yeast, some candy, some bubblegum, and light vegetable traces in the final. The alcohol is too noticeable as well. Boozy.
Quite bad.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear copper with a small off-white head. Aroma is very estery, with lots of fruity esters, Belgian yeast and cotton candy. Flavour is light-moderate sweet upfront, with tons of candied sugar, Belgian yeast and copious fruity esters. Far from an authentic tripel - that yeast expression is just not right, way too many esters, and far too sweet. Not good.
