I had this beer on-tap at the brewery in a tulip glass.

Appearance: light golden hue with a moderate haze and a thin layer of ivory foam.

Smell: rich and malty with plenty of sweetness. That said, it’s got a smooth and inviting character.

Taste: quite sweet, as is especially common in American tripels, but not actually cloying. There’s not an overwhelming alcohol heat. Malt is soft and smooth, with a light hoppiness. I like it.

Mouthfeel: medium body with a good level of carbonation and creaminess.

Overall: I always like to see small breweries trying their hand at a tripel; overall this is a totally solid one — better than I normally expect from an American brewery. Good stuff!
