A murk-filled amber, leaning slightly towards the golden side. Too dark style-wise, but oh well. Ample tan froth with medium duration.
Bold nose full of cardamon, coriander and clove. Lime- and orange peels provide backing, along with a boat-load of sweetish malts. Yeast is evident in the barnyard hues it provides.
Heavily malty and sweet up front. Honey-drenched biscuits and caramel hard candies. Maltiness fades as an assertive spiciness takes the fore. Wheatiness develops. Just as the nose promised, there are bushels of cloves, and sturdy amounts of cardamon and coriander. Oh, and more coriander too. Seems more like a double-wit a this point. Yeast lays down additional heft and bready tones. Loads of bread, actually. A growing lime sourness emerges. Minor horse-barn notes. Alcohol sweet-bitterness late, which is masked by the growing sourness and floral hop closure.

Full-bodied and goes down like wine and probably equally as strong. Undercarbonated for the style.

Not quite a classic tripel -too malty and heavy for such- but certainly an interesting one.
