12 oz bottle from eaglefan538. Pour is hazed golden yellow with a noisy 2 inch white head. Falls quickly with no lacing. Aroma of wheat, straw, some sweet cherry fruitiness near the back. Taste is honey sweet cherries out of the gate, with some slick wheat behind that. Finish lingers quite a bit, with a sharpness and some alcohol heat. The sweetness on this is pretty cloying. Palate is medium, slick and sticky. Thanks for sending this my way Brian.

12 oz bottle courtesy of Thaichile. Pour is hazy orange ruby with a 1/2 inch egg white head. Nice lacing. Aroma of orange citrus hops, cherries and sweet biscuit maltiness. The cherry smell is sweet and ripe, fresh and natural smelling. Taste is cherry sweetness, though it is a bit more herbal and medicinal than the nose suggested. Some nice sour. The orange citrus is present with some bitterness though it is pretty muted. As it warms, the nutty biscuit maltiness comes out nicely. Tasty beer, nice complexities to the flavors. Palate is thin to medium, and a bit slick. Thanks for this one Mark, it was fun to try.

Draft at Max’s Taphouse, Baltimore. Filtered brown-red color. Creamy and malty, with the cherries and amber malt balancing each other out quite well. Mild aroma, with mild alcohol notes. Full of malty rich flavor, but a semi-watery finish.

12oz bottle....Pours dark amber with a beige head.....mostly malts on the aroma, until it sits then more cherry comes through to the nasal passages....a sweet malty flavor--pretty yummy actually--the cherries take last place unfortunately...but at least there presence is present--it comes through when I burb--mainly the finish reflects the cherry addition...its a clean well made brew--a hint of lacing on my glass as well, nothing to brag over mind you...also a bit overpriced...$10.25 for a six pack!!!

12oz bottle. Darker than expected orange-tan colored beer with a very frothy, thick head. 7% hardly justifies the "Double" categorization or the hefty price tag for a sixer, but this is a great beer. Lacy smooth mouthfeel, with some Belgian candi sugar tastes in there potentially. Sweet and creamy, with lots of Wit spices coming through as well. A top notch beer from River Horse, perhaps the best I’ve had from them.

12 oz bottle-pours a big frothy off white head and cloudy yellow/gold color. Aroma is spice-coriander/clove, faint orange zest, grain. Taste is mostly dry spice-coriander/clove. Then banana/faint orange zest/pumpkin, grain/wheat with some sweetness. Pepper comes through at mid and after taste. OK carbonation. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for picking this out.

Pours a light orange color with a off-white head. Smells pretty fruity and sweet. The taste is smooth and sweet. Really drinkable, even though I drank it in a pretty bad mood. Some hops mostly fruitiness though. A good example of an APA.

Very little head. Clear coppery color, darker than most tripels I remember. Really fruity aroma. Pretty spicy/peppery taste. Rather fruity. It doesn’t have that dryness most other tripels have, which is maybe why I liked it more than many other reviewers here. Pretty sweet taste. High alcohol is unnoticeable. Feels pretty light in the mouth.

(Bottle 35,5 cl) Courtesy of Kramer17801. Slightly hazy amber golden with an off-white head. Rather fruity nose. Very full body with sweet - very sweet - fruit notes. Rather unclean and unbalanced with a whiff of butter. Basically no bitterness. 080707
