Had this one on tap at Chalkies.

A hazy yellow-gold with a thin white head. Leaves sheets of lace on the glass. Aroma is musty and fruity, with a clove spiciness. Flavor is sweet, but not at all cloying. Begins with tropical fruit and vanailla, cloves, and some musty notes. Has a very full body, and is very smooth. The alcohol is very well hidden, making this one dangerous beer.

I am especially surprised by this one since, although Oaken Barrel is a very competent brewery, I don't expect their brews to be outstanding. This, in my opinion, rivals any Belgian Tripel I've tried. A most impressive beer!
