look: 3.5 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75

Style/abv: tripel/7.5%

Smell: light hue of lemon zest, ginger, and very delicate hop notes

Taste: slightly bitter malts, tart citrus fruits, with a very dry champagne-like body and taste; this beer goes down like a flowery pseudo-saison

Pairs well with aged white cheddar, figs, and black grapes--and of course toast crackers

Poured from a 330 mL bottle in to Duvel tulip.

A- Pours a pale straw yellow with a nice three finger white head.

S- Belgian spice, bananas, and some aged fruits.

T- Pretty standard taste for a tripel, about what I'd expect. Nothing out of the ordinary, maybe not as sweet as I'd like or expect it to be. It also seems to be a bit watery.

M- The feel is light and crisp. Very refreshing on a hot day.

O- This is enjoyable, but noticeably less complex and enjoyable than something like La Fin Du Monde. I'm still glad I gave it a shot though.

A: All white thick compact head is what fills the glass. After quite some time the head settles and the liquid starts to rise; clear golden. Rich lacings.

S: Yeast and spices, sour and dry. Lots of green apples and quite some citric notes as well.

T: Dry, sour and yeasty. Malt. Sour green apples. Crisp.

M: Long sour and dry aftertaste. Body is rather light and carbonation is held back.

O: A nice Tripel, perhaps on the more sour side, but still I like it!

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.5

Appearance: 1/2 inch head, clear, orange-gold in color, high carbonation

Smell: hay, apricot, and honey

Taste: big apricot, pear, hay, and honey

Mouthfeel: sweet with slight alcohol/funky bitterness, light bodied with high carbonation

Overall: I really enjoyed this one. Super smooth, light, and fruity. The flavors really pop on this one. If I am looking for a beer in this style, this would be near the top of my list.

12 oz bottle for $3.

Matched against De Ranke Guldenberg in my personal ongoing Tripel bracket.

A: Handsome gold with a bone-white head which simmers down to a thin layer of lacing in two minutes. No visible sediment. Very active carbonation.

S: Baked pears. Light esters. Something almost vegetal and haylike. Sugar scent opens up as it warms.

T: Good, though maybe a little simplistic for the style. One of those tripels where it's tough to identify individual flavors, especially since everything is a little muted in this one.

M: Thin for a tripel, watery on the back end. Also lacking the explosive carbonation of the best examples.

O: Pleasant and subtle, but imperfect. Loses steam as it warms and the wateriness becomes apparent. The clear loser to Guldenberg in the head-to-head, though I now realize that's a poor pairing.
