Appearance: Hazy with orange in color poured with a nice head and left great lacing.
Smell: Belgian-istic, with citrus and clove
Taste: Citrus, followed by the belgian yeast ester profile
Mouthfeel: Bigger body than the classic Triple's (Westmalle, Chimay), but not out of line for the style
Overall: Nice triple, little on the citrusy side, but not a deal breaker, reminds me of Gouden Carolus Tripel.

On tap at the brewpub.
Pours with a slightly hazy amber body topped by a fine head that leaves splendid lacing (quite like their ESB).
Feel: Medium carbonation with the higher ABV more evident than I prefer.
Aroma: Belgian yeast, caramel, and a floral aspect.
Taste: Overly sweet up front but some hops kick in mid-taste adding an obvious bitter quality. Banana, clove and other yeast aspects dominate.
O: good but not great.
