Light orange color and mostly transparent. Big head with a soapy consistency. Good retention and lots of lacing.

Citrus and apple in the aroma along with a ginger spiciness.

Fruit flavors most apparent in the taste. Mild spiciness from the hops. Honey sweetness. Hint of yeast. Alcohol is there but pretty well hidden.

Medium bodied and quite dry in the finish from the hops and alcohol.

Pretty good tripel. Definitely better examples out there but this one is worth a try if you see it.

I picked up this 22oz brown bottle at the Binny's store in Bloomingdale, IL. I don't know why it was in the discontinued bin, but it was a steal at $2.99 a bottle, so I bought one. No freshness date that I could find.

The beer poured a hazy caramel color with some sediment at the bottom. Two finger white head that dissipated quickly and left only minimal lacing.

Strong apricot smell with some spiciness underneath.

Fruity and spicy like the nose suggested, with apricot/orange being the dominant fruit flavor. Nice malty backbone but nicely balanced with 3 different hops. Not very bitter at just 24 IBU's, but the hops are still noticeable.

Smooth, medium bodied mouthfeel with moderate carbonation.

I liked this one a lot.
