Bottle pours a hazy deep copper color. Decent off white sandy colored head. Aroma is a sweet caramel slightly hoppy note. A bit woody and of brown paper. Flavor was wody and fairly bitter. Spicy leafy hop notes and not much of the citrusy flavors. Long lasting harsh bitter bite and a moderate feel. Soft carbonation. Thanks to Pinkzambia for bringing this back from his travels

Thanks to OhioDad for this! A big, firm, white head forms easily over this hazy, lemon yellow Triple. Nice sheets of lace form at the sides. Tart, sour, lemon aroma. A light sweetness lies underneath a big, tar,t citrusy bitterness that dominates this one’s flavor. Some dryness forms on the tongue after the second sip. Some alcohol. This has a bit more body than the average Triple, but not too heavy.

Sampled at From The Vine beer tasting Sep 22nd, 2006: Dark orange/copper color with a medium eggshell white head and minimal lacing. Aroma of pumpkin pie. Medium body with a good amount of pumpkin flavor, along with some caramel malt. The finish is short and lightly spiced. Slightly above average all around.

Pour is average... slightly cloudy amber/gold with a minimal head... lots of lacing as I work my way to the bottom of the glass. Spices come through heaviest in the nose--cinnamon and nutmeg. I’m not sure I’d guess pumpkin if I didn’t know that it was there, but maybe up front, before the spices take control. Flavor is not as heavy on pumpkin as some other beers like this... it’s more of a sweet malt flavor that has the same spices as a good pumpkin pie and is a little light on the pumpkin. It’s there, but a bit more subtle than I expected. The label is a classic...

Thanks to OhioDad for this one. pours hazy gold with a firm white head of tiny bubbles. Fruity malt aroma. Subtle sweetness with an earthy dryness. The pumpkin just doesn’t jump out at you enough. Otherwise it’s a fair amber ale.

Like some beer with your bourbon? This is for you. Powerful bourbon aroma. Light brown color and lightly carbonated. A little sweet flavor, very heavy and thick with more bourbon in the flavor. Simple and one dimensional, and the alcohol flavor makes it a little hard to drink.

I don’t know what is "doppel" about this. It is a lighter bock. Hardly any aroma at all; just a hint of malt. The flavor is sweet and bocky; some caramel and more malt. No alcohol in the aroma or flavor of this light brown beer. Not bad, but very expensive for what it is.

Hellomynameis put it well when he wrote this beer is uninteresting. It is a standard pale ale. I don’t believe it has enough hop character to be called an IPA. However, the aroma of smoke was a good surprise. A decent session beer.

A heavily hopped tripel; it is a less successful blend of styles than Houblon. Very nice hop aroma and a sweet palate like what I would expect from the style. Medium body. An interesting interpretation and a good beer. However, expensive at $7 / 22 oz.
