Location: Draft at Rattle 'N Hum, 7/14/10
Aroma: Herbal hops on the nose with some spice and dough
Appearance: Has a clear golden pour with pretty much no head
Flavor: Taste is rather similar, strong herbal notes, spice/doughy malts
Palate: It has a pretty dry finish, to go along with the fairly light body
Overall Impression: It's decent, but not the most exciting thing in the style.

bottle pours deep gold with a medium white head. Aroma is candied sugar, pale malts and light alcohol. Flavor is sweet karo syrup, grassy malts, and a peppery hop finish that is super dry with only a hint of alcohol. The balance in this beer is great, one of the best triples I have had to date.

22oz. bottle, pours hazy light golden with a small white head. Aroma of citrus, yeast, sugar and hops. Flavour is a nice balance between an IPA and tripel - starts off with sweet citrus and finishes with bitter hops and spices. Excellent hybrid.

Thanks to radfad2000. I was half-expecting this one to disappoint, but that was definitely not the case. Lots of caramel, bubblegum and hops. Sort of a light, butterscotch-y barleywine. Hops come through as pine resin, mostly. Good complexity to the malt. Perhaps a bit sticky but quite drinkable for a sweet 10+% abv beer.

Bottled Feb 2010 - lightly hazy burgundy beer - thick film of lasting lace - spicy nose with some mild phenols (mostly clove), dark fruit, wheaty tang, kumquat - fairly dry and spicy for the style - not without its sweetness, mostly in the form of charred malts/caramelized sugars, but the yeast is kicking out enough dry, spicy character to keep it rather subdued for the style - spicy and almost toasty through the middle - plum and other dark fruit arrives late, along with some chocolate - I pick up a light bit of funk - interesting, but not as impressive as the other beers I’ve had from them.
