Historical Community Tasting Notes

Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)

The pour is clear and orangey with a fairly small, white, pillowy head which is mostly diminishing and leaves seemingly no lace. The nose is cereal, caramelly, bready, honey, spicy, and clovey. The flavor is sweet with honey, cereal, caramel, orangey, still cereal, light clove and spicy phenols. The palate is warm, lively, less than medium, and
Malty aroma, dark straw color, thick head with decent lace. Heavy on the clove. There is a wild flavor at the end and a buttery finish with no alcohol. Not a great trippel, but not the worst either.
Bottle. Poured dark orange with thin head. Moderate lacing. Full aroma is clove and banana. Mellow full flavour, fruity with some citrus. Finish has some spiciness
