Keg at Man in The Moon, Stockholm Clear amber, small head. Almondy, peppery nose with some pineapple. Mid sweet with medium body and rounded mouthfeel. Peppery apricot brandy. Bready malt. Warming mid bitter finish.

I bought a 750 ml bottle at a Total Wine in Austin some time ago. The weather is finally starting to act like fall, time to sample a tripel. Using my Straffe Hendrik large tulip glass, I see a dark gold body with a minimal head of absolutely white foam. I smell yeast, nectarines and a bit of, I swear, bubble gum. The drink is rather appealing, apricots, straw, a floral touch, green apples and meadow. An assertive presence as I have a drink, something I like. A decent brew in a style I like considerably. And it was nice to have the big bottle, don’t see many of them these days.
