L: Had this on-tap at Growlers to Go - Short Pump, poured into a snifter glass. Had a bright orange color and a cloudy consistency. There was a half inch of foamy head that lasted an average amount of time. Good lacing.

S: A fair aroma of citrus fruit, Belgian-style yeast, a vinous quality, and spices.

T: Tasted of a good amount of the vinous quality (white wine and its barrels), lots of Belgian yeast (a big component), some citrus (the titular grapefruit), some spices (cloves, pepper), a little malt, and light vanilla. An interesting idea for a tripel flavor that doesn't quite come off. Some of the ingredients are a little muted (i.e., the grapefruit). Not bad, though.

F: A good amount of carbonation with a lively finish. Medium-bodied.

O: This is an uneven beer, but it has good qualities. Worth a look.
