Served on-draught into an Independence Brewing pilser glass at Independence brewing a few weeks ago. Reviewed from notes.

A: No bubble show forms as the glass is filled.

Pours a half finger wide head of dull white colour. Okay creaminess and thickness. Subpar (~1 minute) retention.

Body colour is a murky cloudy copper of average vibrance. Glowing.

No yeast particles are visible.

Sm: Pleasant floral hop character. Crystal malt. Some grains. Lemongrass. Honey. Nectar. A pleasant inviting aroma of mild strength.

T: Honey, fruity nectar. Sticky. Grains. Pale Belgian malts, white malts. Floral hop chaacter. Flowery notes. Clove honey. It's brewed to style, with a pleasant maltiness. Nice build for a tripel. Decent balance as well. Average depth, duration, and intensity of flavour. Could use more complexity and subtlety, but I do like it.

No yeast character or alcohol comes through.

Mf: Smooth and wet. Good carbonation and body. Nicely crisp. Suits the flavour profile well.

Not oily, gushed, hot, boozy, harsh, or astringent.

Dr: Drinkable, and nicely executed for the style. Hides its ABV well. I'll enjoy killing the glass, and I'd get it again if I was in the mood for the style. Tasty stuff, and one of the better tripels I've had in awhile. Well priced at the brewery (about $3.00 I guess).
