A golden colored, high gravity (O.G. 1.074) ale, brewed with pilsner, wheat and caramunich malts, along with a good dose of American hops and fermented with Jester King’s farmhouse yeast, finishing at 9.3% alcohol by volume. It is a hop forward beer with dank, resinous hop flavor and aroma, balanced by lightly kilned malt flavors, farmhouse yeast esters and a bit of warming alcohol.

750ml bottle pours a hazy, dark yellow with some cloudy white head. Fruity, sticky nose. Flavor is the same. Full bodied finish. Not the best.

Bottle shared by Thorpe429. Very glad to finally try Jester King. Slightly hazy pour with a medium sized off-white head. Decent head retention. Aroma of big citrus and tropical fruit notes, faint earth and spice. The taste is the same with a bitter hop finish. Medium bodied. Very nice.

Refrigerated bottle compliments of KAggie97 poured into a trappist glass. Pours translucent deep golden with medium bright white head. Great small bubble lacing, medium body, well carbonated, and spicy yeast aroma. Taste is citrus (mostly lemon with a hint of orange) malt, spicy yeast, and dry bitter hop finish. This is a very good tripel.

Cloudy gold, nice light fruity persimmon nose. Citrus hops, peppery. A good mix of fruity Belgian yeast and spicy hops.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy orange with large creamy white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is fruit and yeast. Thin mouthfeel with a dry hop and resin with a long lingering dry finish. Tastes more of a saison then belgian strong ale.
