This was poured into a tall tulip (Corsendonk).
The appearance was a hazy dark bronzed burnt orange color with a one finger white foamy head that quickly dissipated and left no lacing.
The smell started off with leathery wood running into the normal tripel aromas of \"iced apples,\" Belgian spices, light peaches, sweet freshly cut grassiness, funk is there but super light, and a delicate herbal to semi-earthiness rounding it all out.
The taste was moderately sweet, the funk is pretty light along with the sour level being really light. Woodiness comes back to dry it all down into the aftertaste but leaving a semi-sticky \"tripel\"-esque feel on the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a nice sipping to semi-sessionable feel, alcohol seems a bit weak in the feel, hmmm...I wish there was a date on this thing. Carbonation is barely there, but that doesn’t bother me, as the stickiness of the normal \"tripel\" feels take the lead and make everything seem right.
Overall, weird, but if anything I really super like this for me despite it being a bit more off than a tripel. I know Hermit Thrush wants to be their own thing in Vermont and I respect them for that. I wish they would put dates on their beers.

This was poured into a chalice.
The appearance was a dark brown color with ruby red hues glossing around the sides of the glass. The head was a slim white foaminess that quickly dissipated and left no lacing.
The smell started off with sweet to sour raspberries opening up into light dark chocolate allowing some super light Belgian spices.
The taste took the sweet and the sour and added a nice little dry tartness and throwing in some cherries. The dark chocolate resides in the background. There’s a tad of a unique tart cherries to raspberry blend leading into the aftertaste and in the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a medium on the body with a fairly decent sipping quality about it. Carbonation runs low allowing the sourness to become the the harsh edge it should have from the \"sour\" side of the house.
Overall, cheers to Hermit Thrush for taking a classic Belgian style and adding their twist on it. Good job, nice late Summer sipper!
