Bottle as shown. Pours a cloudy yellow golden with a small frothy white head that diminishes quickly leaving decent spotty lacing along the glass. The aroma is a fruity malt with orange peel, banana, and yeast. Medium mouthfeel with a dry fruit malt with clove, banana, and yeast with a dry finish. Hides the alchol decently making it easy to drink. A good tripel from Pike.

A light golden ale with a thin white head. A rather light vanilla cream aroma, fruity esters, and light orange peels. In mouth, a spot on triple with light candy sugar, coriander, lots of orange peels, some cuban rhum warmth. Nice and smooth. On tap at brewpub, Sept. 12 2009.

Bottle from Liquid Solutions. Pours a darkly hazy gold with a bubbly white head that wasn’t much. Aromas of banana, citrus, and maybe clove. Full bodied with chewy carbonation. Flavor is fruit, coriander?, and hint of banana. Hot bits pop up in the finish. It’s astringent. It’s not really very sweet. My mouth is puckering. Almost like wood aged. Very good stuff indeed.

Pours clear brilliant gold with thin white head. The aroma has full notes of sugary malts, apple, light colored fruits and some flower pedals. The taste begins with a pulse of sweet and roasty malts followed by apricots and apples and moving toward harsher fruit notes. It then returns back to roastiness into the finish.

Sample at the brewpub. Pours a clear light golden color with a medium thin white head that dissipates rather quickly. Aroma of malt, spices and tart fruit. Medium body with flavors of yeast, peppery hops and fruit. Some sweet malt is present at times too. The finish is tart fruit and spices with a bit of banana lingering behind. Above average overall.

Orange, cold hazed beer under small bubbly white head. Bubblegum (4-v...guaiacol...) over some cloves - Weizen tripel? Toasted malts, white candi sugar, honey (?), and good attenuation. Medium body, alcohol is obvious. Wh/ye/labs/ast, technically OK, but it isn’t inviting to me.
