| Smell | Started with basic yeast & banana, but once it warmed up, the banana smell was very prominent. I spilled some on my shirt and smelled bananas all night. | ||||
| Appearance | Slightly hazy golden orange with a huge head that overflowed on to the counter. | ||||
| Taste | Sweet to start, but quickly replaced by a prickly, stinging alcohol burn. Make sure you have a designated driver if having more than one. | ||||
| Comments | I wanted to like this more because I like monks, but I didn't. Probably just not my style (Belgian style triple) | ||||

I've got this beer in my fridge as we speak. I've been meaning to try it, but maybe I'll push it to the rear of the line-up now. Doesn't sound too good.
ReplyDeleteHave you had others of the style to compare it to, or was it justnot a good beer?
I've never thought that a wheat beer smelled or tasted like bananas, haha. Instead, I always think they smell/taste like creamed corn, yummm.
ReplyDeleteI have not had many, if any, Belgian Style Triples, so I can’t compare it to others of the same style. I am gradually making my way up the big beer ladder, but so far, this style doesn’t do it for me. Was it bad? No, definitely not.
ReplyDeleteIt may be a bit too much for a hot summer day, so perhaps moving it to the back of the refrigerator is appropriate.
