Bottle from Special Brews in Lynwood, WA. Pours gold with a white head. Fruit ester aromas. Like fruits de bois with a nhint of banana. Flavor is a bit sweet, but the esters and yeast seem appropiate. Pretty tasty and drinkable tripel.

schenkt mooi helder licht gouden met witte kraag. Aroma van fruit en honingzoet en verder wat mout. Smaken zijn redelijk glad en zacht, zoetigheid van de honing komt ook terug, maar ook een wat storende gistbitterheid welke ietwat overheersend aan het worden is na een tijdje. Zit ook iets pittigs in, wat witte peper oid, koriander, sinaasappelschil, maar ’t is gewoonweg een vreemde combinatie, nee ik kan hier niet echt van genieten... voor mij wat uit balans...

Better known nowadays as Santa Bee, another stereotypical Scotch-based Belgian Christmas ale, deep bronze with dense, off-white head; malty and estery aroma, honey, sweet spiciness, candied fruits; malty taste, fruity, candi sugar, caramelly, yeasty, sourish touch with a dryish finish with some warming alcohol and roasted coffee bitterishness, but solvents as well. Quite alright but there are better Belgians to choose from in this time of the year.
