Purchased at The Fresh Market as a 500mL bottle for $7.99. Poured as a 6oz sampler glass at The Blue Door.

L - Clear gold, with a minimal pale white head that dissipates quickly. Minimal lacing.
S - Medicinal. Ginger spiciness on the front. Cherry.
T - Closely follows nose. Orange blossom. Honey. Well-hidden booziness. Leans sweet, but with a dry finish.
F - Medium-bodied, with minimal carbonation. Warming.
O - I really wish I had more of a Pinot Noir flavor throughout this brew. A standard tripel, masked by an overall cough syrup flavor and aroma. Strong, but disappointing. I won't purchase this again, but perhaps a better reaction comes from others.
