I guess it's back in circulation again. Draught @ Vintner Market, Manhattan (4/11/23). Cloudy dark yellow/light amber with a large creamy off-white head, faint piney aroma, low carbonation, bitter malty taste with funky Brettanomyces induced flavor, thin body, long bitter-funky finish. Interesting brew.

Halftime helps keep me in Belgian brews, this time it is T4 from Transmitter, who had a Belgian strong dark ale I acquired to sample before. Not bad. This time it is a tripel, I open the tall boy can before pouring inside of my Great Heights snifter. An orange tinted yellow liquid with a glorious head of arctic white foam to appreciate. Strong carbonation also. The scent is yeast, ripe yellow fruit and grain. I have a drink. This is a good tripel, maybe even better than that. Peaches, nectarines, hops as a nice offset, crackers, a indication of grapefruit, candi sugar and malt. A nice fullness. This is the second top-flight domestic tripel I have rated in a week, wonders never cease.

A 16 oz can delivered by Half Time a few months ago, the time to sample is now. Flip the tab before tilting into a globe glass. I determine a dark cola brown body followed by a thin rim of off-white bubbles. The smell is very ripe, dark fruit and baked bread. The taste I get is yellow plums, black plums, grain, malt, bubble gum, cough syrup and sorghum. A different approach at a Belgian dark ale but I can appreciate. Slightly sweet, a bit sour, some funk. Not bad, not great.
