Flight pour at brewery. Pours clear gold with white head. Aroma has banana, spicy Belgian yeast, and something vegetal. Flavour has a good helping of esters, but only moderate sweetness, cloves and coriander, wheaty malts. Carbonation is quite low. Still has too much chemical bitterness to not feel a bit clumsy. Not a proper tripel, per se, but, much better use of Belgian yeast than other BC attempts. I'd say this needs work, but given how long this has been in production it feels more like the brewer has given up trying to create an authentic Belgian beer and has settled for something palatable to the average person.
