Stoudt's Triple (Belgian Abbey-Style Ale)
Pours a flufy white, thre finger head over a banana ripened body. Smells as if there is a spicy belgian character getting ready to wallop you in the senses. Unfortunately, it's not a spicy assault, but an alcoholic binge. How 9% feels so harsh, I'll never know. The smell is nice, but dosn't come through on the taste. There is a hollowness one feels after this. A lingering on the palate that makes you yes, try it again, to see if there was something you missed, but understanding that that something might not be that pleasant. Drinkability for me, is very low. The highreal ABV and that it seems that way, makes this not a sesion beer, if you ask me.
