Fairly small white cream head. Super cloudy rusty/orange color. It looked heavy, if thats possible. It delivers a full flavor up front, quite sweet with lots of spices/banana coming through. I wasnt sure if i was drinking a tripel or a wit. Though it has no wheaty taste, tripels arent usually this sweet and round. No astringency whatsoever, and I can hardly believe, reading this now, that it is 10 abv, couldnt tell. Ends with an almost, but not quite, tart peach flavor with plenty of yeast on the palate. The saaz hops are present in the background of this beer, but do not really make much of an appearance. This beer would be wonderful to cellar, but was not cloying, like some notably sweet beers, so was delightful to drink new, just as well.
