This was a purple beer. My first one of those. Well this one was quite interesting. Raspberries dominate everything about this beer. The flavor was sweet but mostly tart. Some muskiness was detected. I was impressed even though Im not usually a big fan of raspberries. The mouthfeel was quite carbonated and sweet. This is my #600 rating!

The aroma is freaking awesome with some cloves, citrus, pine, and spices. The apperance is a murky yellowish orange color with a large head. The flavor has a nice citrus punch with some orange peel and coriander flavor. There's some wheat and peppery spices present. This one is very nicely balanced, and unlike the Prior 8, its not overcarbonated. The aftertaste is yeasty and sour. This is just a damn fine beer.

A chocolate, raisin, caramel, and oak filled aroma. Appearance is a dark brown with a large head. The flavor is quite rich with some roasted nuts, grapes, raisins, cherry, oak, maple syrup, and caramel. A very complex sipper this one is. My only complaint with this beer is the over carbonation. It has a very spritzy mouthfeel. Regardless this beer rocks!

The apperance is a pale yellow color with a moderate white head. The aroma is hay and lemons. The flavor is pretty tame with some malt accents showing through. Not a bad beer for mowing the lawn but it offers very little complexity. A good simple lager that does offend nor impress.

Some dusty and pill bottle aromas. Odd but good nose. The appearance is a cloudy yellow. The flavor is sour lemons and vanilla. A pretty good funky triple.

Got lemons? Well if you don’t here is where you can get the hook up. A golden appearance with a ridiculously large head. A very carbonated beverage this is. Aroma is bananas and lemons. The flavor is very sweet with some lemons and peaches. A bit of a spicy finish. Pretty good just not great.

Last beer sampled on San Diego trip. An amber color with some good lacing. The flavor is fruity and spicy. My palate has been destroyed by big IPA’s all week so I cant taste much at this point. Some alcohol showing through in the aftertaste. Not bad.

A yellowish orange appearance. A creamy head with some nice lacing. The aroma is....sniff....sniff....almost non-existant. A very mild lemon and dust aroma. The flavor is nothing to write home about either. Quite yeasty and wheaty almost with a hint of bitterness. It leaves a bit of sourness on the tounge. A good beligan lawnmower beer. Refreshing and not complex. Alright by me anyway.

Ah I wasn’t impressed with this. It looked like iced tea when it was poured. The taste was similar to lemon iced tea with some caramel notes. This one was thin and watery. There is some alcohol showing through the water. This Kwak is Wack! Boring.

This one was a reddish brown color with a mininal head. It smelt like cherries and alcohol. The alcohol really comes through but it doesn’t spoil the experience. A strong cherries and grape flavor. This one was quite sweet and warming. A nice one for a cold night. Overall it was very brandy like and a good one.

The bier poured a light murky yellow color with a very large fluffy white head. The aroma is lemony with a nice yeasty overtone. The flavor is somewhat spicy with some ginger and lemons. I also catch some bananas and wheat. The aftertaste is slight sour with a nice soft mouthfeel. Not a Triple that will cause you to dance the gig, but it is pleasent in all its simplicity.

The aroma is sour apples and vinegar. The appearance is orange with a small head. The flavor is an assortment of cheese, tart apples, vinegar, and lemons. The aftertaste is fantastic with a nice dusty sour finish. This one is quite sour and funky and something you have to sip on slowly. Very good.

I guess I’m not old enough to enjoy prunes anyhow....A murky amber appearance. Some dark fruit such as raisins, dates (of course) in the aroma. I detect some vinegar in the flavor. I also get some dates, figs, and caramel in there also. Overall this was ok, odd but ok.

This one poured a dark brown color. The aroma is complex with some oak, chocolate, caramel, raisins, and alcohol. The flavor is rather sweet with some oak, vanilla, chocolate, molasses, and other dark fruits. This is good in small amounts but can get a bit too sweet. Some alcohol burn in the finish. Overall a great beer.

The flavor is quite sour with some granny smith apples, cherries, lemons, and a healthy does of vinegar. Some caramel presence as well. It has a woody character to it. Overall an awesome beer!

This was my first belgian and after this I was hooked, very complex flavor with grapes, raisins, vanilla, cherries, and other fruit lurking in the background. Pours dark with a nice head. Aroma of fruit and a hint of alcohol. RERATE : Many Belgians later this is not as great as I thought. Its has a mild yet flavorful taste but I dont think it runs with the big dogs of this style. Overrated for sure. The Red and White are better. Dull at this point. A disgrace to be in the BP top 5 I hope to see it gone soon.

This is one of the best Belgians Ive ever had. Complex is an understatement. Every sip of this is like heaven. Peaches, raisins, plums, vaniila, cherries, almonds... you name and its there. Good mouthfeel. Keep that corkscrew handy and be prepared for an awesome beer at a reasonable price!
