(Draught at brewpub, Sept 17 2013) Pours a slightly hazed deep orange colour with a small, fine white head - dark for a tripel. Smells like, well...a vanilla donut! Flavour follows, sweet up front, vanilla, candy sugar, fills in with a bit of yeasty doughy character, light hopping on the back for bitterness, no real boozy character. Medium-full body, very soft carbonation. This was quite a fun beer, and tasty too, so compliments to the brewer. I just don’t think I could survive much more than a sampler.
