"06.16.05 Tap at New Hope. Absolutely beautiful pour, dark straw, opaque in its haze, with a tall creamy head which slowy fades in rocky irregularity. Sheeting lace. Delicious, juicy aromas of pear juice, weedy coriander. Light to medium bodied that seems to fill out as it come sup to temp. Served too cold for my liking, so I had to let it sit for a while. It’s a tart beer, fruity, good yeastiness is both spicy and ripe. The yeast reminds me of the recent Triumph abbey tripel. Wow! what a delicious and refreshing quaffer for summertime. I’ve got to give props to Triumph for being the only brewpub in NJ to consistently try new styles and do it well at that. What other BP in the state right now has on an Impy Stout, Saison, Gruit, and Vienna besides the usual amber, IPA, and wheat? Awesome. Back to the beer...hints of lemongrass and this is indeed reminiscent of a witbier, only more tart and yeasty. I would have liked a drier finish, but the solid tart bite cleans it all up. I bought a growler."

"Poured a hazy golden color with a medium sized white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of yeast, citrus, orange peel, and coriander. Taste of citrus, lemon, more orange peel and coriander, and a touch of alcohol in the finish."
