12oz can from BevMo, Bakersfield. Nose is cocoa, toasty, with hints of bourbon and vanilla (only 3 months in the barrel). Black with a big tan head. Flavor is malty and lightly sweet.

From keg at Kultainen Apina, Tampere.
The beer poured clear and light amber in color.
Caramel malts, good bitterness. Some resiny hops. Very drinkable.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: copper color with a one finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy to floral and piney hops meshing with some bready/crust-like malts
Flavor: tries to blend the hops to the malts but seems to fall a bit short and the beer seems to remain on the bitter side; mild finish of some malts and a touch of floral hops
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; hop assertiveness tends to be more aggressive and the smoothness is a lot weaker
Overall: so many IPA's on the market these days this one doesn't really tell me it wants me to give it another shot and part of me says I probably wouldn't.

Can to becher glass.
Appearance: copper to amber color with some clarity, one finger white foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace to leave some light lace
Aroma: caramel/toffee malts, sweet cream and some woody spices
Flavor: leans to the sweet side as those woody spices just seem like their purpose is unknown; finishes super sweet
Texture: light to medium bodied, somewhat sessionable, light smoothness and I guess here is where I find out the spices were meant to dry it all out
Overall: not exactly sure what style this beer is supposed to be (maybe some sort of amber ale?) And maybe someone out there likes this but I do not see myself coming back to this.

On tap at McGillicuddy's Five Corners, Essex Junction, VT.
Appearance: pale yellow semi-cloudiness with a bar pour's kind of slim white foamy head which slid off immediately to not leave any lace
Aroma: salty then the watermelon and every sniff I took I wasn't entirely sure if the watermelon was artificial or genuine, it seemed to turn each time (so I throw my hands up on that part, whatever)
Flavor: salty and watermelon (artificial or geunine, once again I couldn't really tell - hmmmm, how odd); finishes salty and that unknown watermelon sweetness
Texture: light bodied, sessionable, some smoothness but also some salty stains on the tongue
Overall: just because a beer has salt in it, doesn't mean it's a gose, how arrogant of the brewer to slap the word "gose" on the end to misinform people.

Bottle to chalice.
Appearance: more like a semi-bronzed amber color with a finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: sweet grains, light grassiness, some candied pomme-like fruits, touch of yeasty character but wasn't exactly sure if that was a Belgian yeast or not (there was something kinda spicy but didn't fully tell me that was a Belgian yeast strain used)
Flavor: copies the aromas pretty spot on as once again there's some spicy yeasty sort of thing going on but you can't really tell if that's Belgian or not; finishes with the pomme-like fruits and sweet grains
Texture: medium to full bodied - hmmmm, maybe closer to medium bodied, good sipper, light smoothness but no "back-of-the-throat" grab like a true Belgian does to me, hmmmm, I'm getting more suspicious with this beer
Overall: well, oddly enough, I didn't mind this beer for me as there's something good here but honestly this isn't anywhere close to a real Belgian tripel, just sayin'. Just don't ask me what style this is truly supposed to be.

Can. Black beer with a brown head. Chocolate and bourbon aroma. Bourbon and chocolate flavor. Medium bodied. Bourbon and chocolate linger with caramel.
