Review from BeerAdvocate magazine Vol. III Issue I:
One of the best labels in the world and a great wake-up call for overzealous über beer geeks who feel the need to age any and all beers. "Drink fresh, do not age! Pliny the Elder is a historical figure, don't make the beer inside this bottle one ... Age your cheese, not your Pliny ... Pliny is for savoring, not for saving!" Love it. "Respect hops, consume fresh!"
Light honey amber in color, topped with a big, fluffy, creamy white head with a ton of glass stickage. Massive ripe pineapple aroma in the nose, with pine, mint, sappy resins, powdery pale malts and a hint of alcohol. Silky smooth, medium bodied, with a very firm consistency and slightly chewy back. Hop presence is artfully chaotic. Nice prickly stab on the palate up front, semisharp bitterness, grassy, zesty grapefruit, deep smacking of ripe pineapple and pine. Juicy fruitiness, notes of apple and pear too. Dry middle with suggestions of chalky aspirin. Bready malts, soft and sweet, provide a nice backboard for the hops. Oily and ashy hop resins stick to the palate and follow through into a dry, bitter linger. Alcohol becomes sentient as the beer warms, speaking to us in tongues. And despite this, remains insanely drinkable.
One of the best DIPAs on planet Earth, ever.

NOTE: If you are drinking this beer about 2 months past its freshness date then you are not getting the full experience.
500ml brown bottle with a bottled on freshness date.
Mildly hazed orange golden color, solid two fingers of head leave a nice crowning of sticky lace that leaves thick rings on the glass. Big hop aroma of evergreen, clementine rind, pineapple and fresh cut grass. Super smooth with a modest amount of carbonation. Prickly spicy hop bitterness with citric, mint and wild flower flavors that linger far into the aftertaste. Hint of nutty yeast and a big handful of biscuity malt are thrown at the palate and actually shows that this beer has balance. Full bursting orange grove flavor. The 8.0% stays hidden for the most part yet does yield a slow warmth about half way through the pint, a bit of ripe tropical fruitiness within from the esters. Finishes with that long drawn out hop bitterness and flavor as it leans towards the dry side.
Epic, a deserving epic as well even with all of the hype surrounding PTY. Pliny The Elder is the poster-boy for Double IPAs. Every hophead needs to put this on their must try list.

Appearance: a yellow to dull golden color. Fairly good clarity but some slight haze to it. A finger of a frothy head that hardly fades at all and leaves a huge lacing on the sides. A damn good looking dipa
Smell: pine, citrus, herbal. Lots of hops but a fairly generous amount of sweet and lighter crystal malts to it. The malts are just a touch too sweet for me.
Taste: opens up with a good dose of sweet crystal malts. Backend is full of hops. Pine is first, then comes herbal and some floral. Some citrus. A bit of bitter resiny hops.
Mouthfeel: medium body. Nice strong bitterness. Some lingers but not too much.
Overall: this one doesn't disappoint me. It's not the greatest dipa, but I didn't expect it too. Great strong bitter hops too it.

Bottle poured into Nordic pint glass
A - pours looking like a macro lager but with a better head leaving great lacing
S - grapefruit, pine, freshly cut grass
T - grapefruit, lots of pine and a very sweet citra style finish with freshly but grass and pine
M - so smooth it's ridiculous. Perfect carbonation for this style

Popped open a bottle and poured into a chilled stein ... Big shout out to Neil at Red Carpet in Rancho Cucamonga for providing a bottle out of his personal stash!
A: 3.75 - Deep golden hue with almost no head on a slow pour, very thin and dark cream colored. Has an appearance of a typical adjunct lager. Lacing is insane, dense foam clings to the side of the glass.
S: 5 - BIG grapefruit, citrus and floral notes smack you in the nose, trailed by a dense, woody pine backdrop. I'm also detecting some dried fruit like cherries, peaches and figs. The fruitiness of this beer is VERY assertive.
T: 4.75 - The taste follows the smell, with a burst of citrus fruits, dried peaches, and deep pine notes. There is also a strong malty backbone with this one that keeps it from being overpowered by its intense hoppiness. The aftertaste is of strong bitterness from the hops that lingers for an eternity. It might be too much for the uninitiated, bit for hop-heads, it might be paradise.
M: 4.5 - Moderate carbonation, silky-smooth mouthfeel, intensely refreshing on the way down. Coats the tongue and throat quite nicely.
Overall - 4.75: All in all, this is my second divine experience tasting a Russian River offering. Normally, I'm not an IPA fan, but the fruity blend of hops here is so excellent - it's perfectly balanced with strong, sweet malt that keeps the aggressive hop flavor in check. The aftertaste was a bit strong, but that was easily remedied with another sip. The worst part of this beer is that it will be gone soon and I'll have to wait until I can reserve another!

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. First time with this beer and I'm really stoked. Expectations can't possibly be met.
Poured lighter than expected for a double, but glassy and beautiful. Slight pale head.
Smells are what you would expect from the style. Very fresh smelling. Hops with more hops. Again, very fresh smelling.
The nose didn't lie. This isn't an overly citrus nor an overly piney hop bomb. It is what occurs when everything is balanced. Nothing jumps out and blows you up. It's just a very easy drinking, beautiful hoppy lovefest. The thing that separates this beer from its imitators and competitors is that you really want to drink the hell out of it, not just taste it over and over because it's good.
Mouthful is nice, not too resiny, and malt is clean and fresh. As soon as you swallow it, your mouth needs a refill. Just balance.
Somehow the hype matched the eexperience. In all facets of life, that's rare. By as many of these as you can and share with friends. Wow.

Finally....finally I have a bottle of this beer.
Bottled on 2/17/11,fresh as well.Poured into an imperial nonic a rich burnt orange tinged golden with a large blooming white that left broken chunks of lace behind as it settled into a frothy mass.Much lighter aromas than expected,resin and grapefruit mixed with a firm dryer malt base,a little iron is in there as well.Resiny and bitter flavors are the main component flavor-wise,again the malt base is dry wich is good with way to many of the style to sweet.The alcohol is incredibly well hidden mainly because the sweetness is in check,its a very good beer but I gotta say I have had better of the style.While I like Hopslam,Dreadnaught,Oracle,and Hercules better, its a good beer,worth the rating?....Not so sure.

Appearance - This came out a hazy, beautiful orange in color with a big, hefty white head.
Smell - This fella has a monster hop profile. The Pliny is piney, that's for sure. There actually seems to be a couple variations of pine smell in here along with some strong floral notes that carry that raw "off the vine" hop fragrance. The citrus hops are rich and sweetish.
Besides all that, this puppy has a huge malt profile. They aren't really toasted at all but have more of a caramel character. All and all this thing is packing quite a wallop!
Taste - This is a big, bountiful DIPA, full of all the delicious flavors from the aroma. All of the hops work in harmony to provide an amazing hop experience with every sip. The malts don't let up for a minute, either. The thick, caramel malts remind me of the 90 Minute. Everything is big yet very well balanced, in a massive hop-head kind of way.
Mouthfeel - This is big but I'd still call it medium-bodied. It is slickly smooth in the cheeks and dangerously easy to drink.
Drinkability - This goes down like none other. The Younger is bigger but doesn't go down as easy as this. At 8.0 ABV I'm sure this has snuck up on many a Russian River patron over the years.
Update - I first reviewed this in 2006 and had a chance to sample it from the bottle again in 2010. It is raw this year and has a monstrous pine aroma. The flavor will cause the uninitiated to dial 911. As massive as the hops are in this beer, to me, still as I said four years ago, it is the malt backbone that separates this man from the boys. I've seen a few examples like this of hop overkill, but this is the only really big monster hop beer that tries to be a true, complete, well-rounded beer if you know what I mean. Most won't even notice the malt base as this one is so hoppy, but it's that almost unnoticeable malt backbone that completes the package.

I had two on tap in Philly. Very excited when the waitress mentioned it, because like many, I thought I might never get to taste it. This beer has a golden-red, rather clear hue. A small white head. An amazing citrus smell that you know is gonna taste good, just from one sniff. Taste is very crisp, refreshing, and citrusy. Grapefruit mostly, with medium body. Could drink a lot of these in a single sitting. I still give an edge to Gandhi Bot as slightly better tasting, because as a local, I have my biases =), but I liked Pliny so much, I thought I would add to the chorus of complimentary reviews. Worth the hype in my opinion, of course I was lucky and didn't have to wait in a line or trade to get a taste, very fortunate on my part. Right bar, right time.

On tap at Toronado. Bright amber orange with a full white head. Head lasts well for an IPA. Body is medium to full with intermittent carbonation attacks. Aroma comes on complexly featuring an appealing amount of pineapple on top of a subtle pine/juniper base. By far, however, the pine is overshadowed by citrus juice, peaches, and grapefruit. The aroma could be described as candy like if it didnt trigger receptors in your brain that say: Warning Hop Blast Acomin! Feels tangy and acidic with a citrus medley blast of lime, lemon, grapefruit, and nectarine. Perfectly balanced (for the style) with a sweet malt base and only residual pine oils in the flavor. More delicate then expected. My tongue is not destroyed after two glasses. I guess that makes this one a drinker.

This was the perfect double I.P.A., no question about it. The beer pours a hazy golden color with not much head. I found it to have more carbonation that some of the other double I.P.A.'s I've had. Pliny gives off an incredible aroma of pine with barely a hint of fruit. It was a little too cold for our first few tastes so the hop explosion was very intense, but as the beer dropped in temperature you could taste every element to this beer perfectly. An initial hop explosion that leaves a citrus, grapefruit, taste lingering behind with absolutely no undesirable aftertaste. The only thing that I can find wrong with this beer is that it is incredibly difficult to find. Places were sold out of it or had limited quantities. If you are ever on the west coast, this beer is a must!

Finally got to try this one thanks to Johnny Ramirez. Can't thank him enough! This has been on my wants list as long as I can remember. Pours a perfect amber color with amazing clarity - something not necessarily expected from a DIPA. Very clean looking with a long-lasting head, super white, thick, and foamy.
The aroma is, bluntly put, motherfucking outrageous. Simply amazing. Heavy ass pineapple and citrus aroma, right along with orange zest and lemon. Hops-to-the-walls; piney, leafy, floral, perfume-like. This amazing balance on the nose between sweet-bitter and fruit-hops is incredible. The pineapple kills me - powerful and pure, not fake or artificial in any way. A total forest of hops, trees, pines, fruits, mangos, pineapples, etc. I want a goddamn Pliny the Elder air freshener.
The taste starts off with an up-front smash of hops; wet, bitter, and assertive, but not harsh, overpowering, or off-putting. These hops are perfect in every way. Piney, oily, and resinous. Alcohol presence is noticeable but never intrudes and is always welcomed. Heavy malt backbone balances everything perfectly. The sweetness from the pineapples and mangos are well-timed and synchronize perfectly with the hops. The flavor profile on this beer is executed eloquently and masterfully. Medium-thick body, mild stickiness, perfect carbonation.
I was scared the hype would ruin this for me. How can a beer seriously live up to the ridiculous amount of hype that Pliny regularly gets? Not only did it live up to those expectations, it surpassed them. I promised myself I wouldn't be swayed by the reviews and wouldn't "say I liked it, just to like it" - but it's impossible. There's a reason this beer is so highly acclaimed. It's ridiculously amazing.

Deep golden color with a sticky off-white head that leaves nice lacings.
The aroma very intense with a big punch of exotic fruits - grapefruit, pineapple, mango, you name it. Grassy and resiny hop aromas as well, and hints of tobacco. Crisp malts underneath provides a lovely balance.
The flavor is fairly sweet with a nice crisp maltiness of caramel beneath an abundance of hops. Hops, hops and more hops. Great juicy fruit aromas and notes of pine-needles. The finish is bitter and resiny with lingering fresh hop notes.
Big body, smooth mouthfeel with a nice semi-dry finish.
As far as Double IPAs goes, it doesn't get much better than this. Easy to drink is an understatement for this one.

As the title implies, I want to offer two thoughts on forgiveness.
First, forgiveness is really not complete until the full trust of the love relationship is reestablished. Thus there would seem to be two main stages or challenges to the process of forgiveness: 1) achieving (and extending) forgiveness in the first place for a serious wound or offense and then 2) achieving the rebuilding of the full bridge of mutual love and trust. If you have forgiven a person or persons, but no longer rejoice in their presence the way you once did, no longer have an intimacy and openness with them as you once did, keep them at arms' length emotionally, much less if you do not want to even be with …continue reading
Well, maybe you're right. It's an interesting thought. My sense of what's normal among Christians might be distorted by the fact that I've spent so much of my life around what you're calling public Christians.
Aug. 21 at 1:25pm | See in context
I wouldn't say it is especially rare among Christians, but it may be rare among public Christians, those who are affected (infected?) by the "culture wars" narrative and envision themselves as courageous warriors against a hostile world. That narrative seems to attract people who value being right (ie. holding the 'right' opinions) as much (and often more) than doing right.
On the other hand, ruthless self-examination and consciousness of one's own faults may actually deter others from taking public or visible roles (or result in those people being actively discouraged).
The authentically humble, I suspect, don't tend to be all that concerned with looking holy or humble or counter-cultural. They are too busy working out their own salvation in fear and trembling. And so they aren't necessarily going to be one of those people or families or groups that make people on the outside say, "I want to be like ____. They've really got it together."

That's a beautiful story! I'm glad you tell it often.
Kate Whittaker Cousino, Aug. 21 at 11:37am
If being able to accept correction is a sign of a trustworthy person, being able to accept correction from someone you are in a position of authority over may be the gold standard.
I agree. At the same time, it seems to me strange that it's so rare among Christians, since it's so basic to the gospel. Humble yourself; the last shall be first and the first shall be last; let him who will be great make himself the servant of all...
This seems to me a major theme of Pope Francis' papacy too. If we want to help others, we have to present ourselves not as righteous ones, explaining to the others where they're wrong, but as sinners who have found help and grace.

I have related this story so many times that I am sure anyone who knows me at all well has heard it, but it made such a lasting impression on me. I was a teen. My mother was concerned about my welfare (I was being uncharacteristically close-lipped), and she knew I had been corresponding with my brother who was away at college. Rather than ask him whether she had anything to worry about (and trust his judgment if he said I was ok), she chose to read my emails to him. When I discovered this, I was furious. We argued about it for a couple of days on and off.
Then Sunday came, and we went to Mass, still angry. And when we came out of Mass, my mother drew me aside and told me, "I was wrong. I'm sorry. Will you forgive me?"
She humbled herself in prayer, and it led her to recognize the real harm she had done me and our relationship. This blew me away.

I'd say philosophical rather than academic, since the latter term has a negative connotation of "unrelated to life". Also, I'm not an academic. :)
Philosphical of course doesn't mean impractical. When Wojyla wrote his essays on Person and Community, he didn't intend to start a community. Same goes for von Hildebrand's Metaphysics of Community. But both texts have immense value for anyone who might like to form a community.
Then, too, think of all the debate and discussion that preceded the drafting of the U.S. Constitution. Quite a lot of thought about the principles of right governance went into that document, including the thought of men who didn't live to see their ideas realized.
Think of Peter Maurin and his call for "round table discussions" as an indispensable prerequisite for the development of new communities.
Think of the discussions and debates, not to mention all the philosophical and theological texts, that preceded the documents of Vatican II.
The Protestant Reformation began with the 95 Theses...

I don't want to start an intentional community. What I want to do is help articulate and identify the sound principles for intentional community life.
So more of an academic interest then, rather than an immediately practical or action-oriented one? Given that your post contrasted yourself with people who find their family/parish life to provide sufficient community, I find that ... odd? I would rhetorically ask you what the point is, of working out the right way to do something, if you're not planning to actually do it... except I've done that so many times myself, it's not really worth asking.

Anna Macdonald, Aug. 19 at 12:23pm
I was thinking that if you want to start an intentional community without those problems, it might be helpful to know the details of how the attitudes arose in the first place...
I don't want to start an intentional community. What I want to do is help articulate and identify the sound principles for intentional community life. One way to do that is the "via negativa", i.e. examining bad and dysfunctional communities.
So, for example, if a lack of transparency and accountability in the governance of the group is hallmark of dysfunction, it follows that transparency and accountability in governance is among the desiderata for a healthy group.
If control and conformism easily creep in, we will want to find ways of maximizing freedom, and so on.
Since a stress on "roles" for men and women so easily leads to the subordination of the individual to his or her "role," we would want to take care to avoid that.
I've already got several draft posts in the works. One identifying community destroyers, one identifying several models of healthy community, one being to lay out some key principles of sound community.

Since you ask, I will say that I don't think of the covenant community that I grew up in as a cult, per se, but mostly because that word brings up images in my mind of a more extreme stereotype of "cult" than I experienced.
To my mind, one of helpful lessons we've learned in recent decades, partly thanks to the experience of the Legion and the Covenant Communities, is that not all cults or cultlike groups are extreme. Cult dynamics can be more or less subtle and more or less thorough-going.
Similiarly, we've learned that you don't have to get drunk every day to be rightly considered an alcholic. We've learned that sexual abuse and physical abuse aren't the only kinds of abuse. (There's also verbal abuse and emotional abuse.)
We've learned that cults don't have to have a whacked-out theology or a a central leader. They can even be Catholic. The key factors are things like control, conformism, and lack of transparency and accountability on the part of the leadership. The convenant communities had all those things in spades, though I agree with you that they weren't as bad as the Moonies.

There are plenty of electronic coupon sites these days, but Larky is a new, free app that lets you know when you can save money without a coupon -- simply because you have a membership perk.
From AARP to college alumni groups, members often get discounts on a wide variety of products and services. But who can remember all of them? Gregg Hammerman and Andrew Bank developed Larky as an automated reminder.
Over 120 million Americans are members of at least three paid organizations like alumni groups and museums that provide some type of perk. And they aren't confined to membership organizations.
"If you have health insurance, if you've got a credit card, you've got perks," Hammerman said. "You don't necessarily have to be a member of particular groups or organizations to have them."
Credit card perk
American Express cardholders, for example, can save every time they rent a vehicle.
"When you rent a car and you're standing at the car rental counter and they ask you if you want the collision insurance in case something happens while you're driving the car, that can be a big extra charge," Hammerman said. "If you're paying with an American Express card, American Express has you covered. You don't have to pay the extra $20 a day for that."
A personal experience set Larky in motion. Hammerman was traveling with his family in Florida and was visiting a children's museum in Miami. He went to the counter and asked what it would cost for his family to enter.
"It was a nice museum so the price was going to be $60 for my entire family," Hammerman said. "But then I remembered that we were members of the children's museum back home in Michigan. When I told them that they said, 'Oh, it's free.'"

11.2 oz bottle.
Golden-orange color, very cloudy. Thick creamy head, lacing sticks on the glass very well.
Cloves, cinnamon and a little peppery, pineapple, banana and clean malts.
Taste & Mouthfeel:
Sweet and spicy up front. Cloves, cinnamon and sweet bready malts. Fruitiness, banana with touch of citrus notes. There some tartness in the middle. Body is medium, but very crisp.
Finish & Aftertaste:
Very smooth finish, yet very crisp. I get some peppery aftertaste that lingers very well.

Appearance The glowing orange body was puddled nicely with foamy pits after the head settled down a bit. Nice.
Smell The yeast aroma is huge on this ale. Theres some light spicing in here, lots of white pepper, and hardly any hops to speak of.
Taste The nice big yeast from the nose comes across well at the taste. The malts are lightly-toasted, and the spices are strong but not offensive.
Mouthfeel This is a bit bigger than medium in the body but with some potent carbs that will slow the drinker. Theres also a nice dryness at the finish, and the malts end with a welcome creamy texture.
Drinkability Well, this ale was served way too cold, but once it warmed up it did just right by me. It went down smoothly if a tad over-carbonated and had a nice yeasty backbone, which I enjoy in the style.

Vintage 2008. Serving date: 2009-01-23. Served in snifter.
Presentation: 330 ml bottle with freshness date (Best before end of 2010) and recommended serving temperature, glassware and cellaring procedure on the label.
Appearance: Golden yellow with brownish hues. Rather hazy. A semi-hard pour into my large-bodied snifter creates a big white head that looks creamy and thick. The head settles rather slowly and leaves a nice coat and some lacings.
Smell: Citric notes and fruity aromas - mostly bananas I think. Some wheat and subtle yeast aromas are here as well.
Taste: Again, citric and banana-like fruit flavors. Yeast and wheat provides a nice grainy and earthy character. The alcohol is present and leaves a little twang, but it's unbelievably well-balanced. The big and long finish is a bit dry, slightly alcoholic and has a distinct but gentle bitterness that sits side by side with a pleasant spices and white pepper. The finish is really good on this one, and its semi-dry spicy character seems everlasting.
Mouthfeel: Rather smooth and creamy considering its medium body and the generous amount of carbonation.
Drinkability: Another great Belgian classic, and all in all a wonderful beer. The aromas are perhaps not overly interesting, but the taste is so well-balanced and complex. As for the alcohol, you definitely notice it, but it fits into the overall character. Definitely worth a try... and a second round.

I'll be completely honest here. The only other tripel I've tried was Victory's Golden Monkey, and I was not extremely impressed. I enjoyed this beer much more. Hard to believe there's that much alcohol in it! Golden color. Nice lacey head, but it didn't stick around too long. I had it served in a fancy-schmancy Chimay glass, which added to the experience. This was also the first Chimay I've ever had, and from what I've read so far it only gets better than the white label.

Served in branded chalice.
LOOK (4/5) This one pours a light gold or deep straw. Clarity is pretty opaque. Head is very good. Two to three fingers rise on the pour. Stand was good, leaving good lacing, and eventually falling to a large cap.
SMELL (4/5) The aroma is so strong and really good! Starts with some nice bisuit malt, that has maybe a bit of peach and apricot. The yeast and the hops combine well into a complex fugue. Some very light banana and bugglegum come from the yeast as well as a good helping of spices (clove, pepper, and a bit of nutmeg). Hops were of the spicier and citrus sort.
TASTE (4.5/5) Really similar to the nose, though hops and hop aroma. Again, some nice biscuit malt up front and that gets followed by the same yeast/hop fugue (but the citrus has a bit more of a floral/orange flavor). The bitterness is a bit higher, but the finish is very smooth.
FEEL (4/5) The body is on the medium side of light with some really nice, strong carbonation. This gives a very effervescent feel. This really compliments the spices and dries out he finish nicely.
DRINK (4/5) Highly drinkable. This is a great brew, but perhaps not the best example of the style.

Light just-under-yellow beer with certain chardonnay or fruit-wine hues of slight pink. The head is of course striking, very large, brite white, and spongey. Aroma is like a mutant hefe-wiezen with huge clove and yeast smells but none of the citric qulaities. Bouquet is quite floral.
Taste is very sugary, big clove taste comes out at the front, with just a touch of banana trailing, berry notes, then the yeast washes in but is suprisingly meek in flavor, and I could swear I taste some cinnemon. Finish is totally clean and astringent.
The mouthfeel of this beer is like nothing I've ever had. It is beautiful. It is as if all these big bubbles push down on your tounge at once and then jump off it in unison never to be seen again. Then the liquid even lightens on the tounge and I begin to question if there is even beer in my mouth at all anymore. Very cool. This single quality, along with the floral aroma, make this beer a real etherial experience. I've never been a Chimay fan really, but I never met this lovely lady they call Cinq Cents. Somethings very special about this beer.

Got this in a 1pt 9.4 fl oz bottle with a corked top. I've also had it on tap, but am just now getting around to reviewing it upon getting a bottle for my birthday.
A: Pours a deep, cloudy cold. Not at all clear, there is a lot of sediment in here.
S: This smells yeasty and Belgian Trippel-y (hard to describe that!), although with a slightly sharper edge than many Trippels have.
T: More dry than sweet, thick-tasting, slightly fruity, with definite citrus notes. A bit of breadiness that gives the beer more body than some trippels. A little sharp and the smell indicates. Delicious.
M: The dry and sweet and well-balanced and the beer is neither thick nor watery. Medium carbonation.
D: Very drinkable. This is easily one of my favorite Belgian Trippels. Yum.

Had at the Gingerman on 25th anniversary pint night and got to keep the Chimay Glass-very nice.
A-Gloden straw with 2 inch white head served in Chimay Glass-looks great as it laces down
S-Yeast up front and some grass/hay smells, on second sniff maybe there are some esthers in there as well with some bubble gum, very interesting spice as well, very subtle
T-At first taste there is a grain and yeast flavor, the smell is better than the actual taste but both are good, the alcohol is well hidden and this goes down easy,
M-good carbo and fizzes in mouth a little, still goes down fairly smooth, not as smooth as some but not bad
O-This is a very well crafted good beer but the flavors just don't pop to give it great ratings that said I could drink this for a while and never notice how drunk I actually became.

Chimay tripel...8% alcohol.
A- Light orange body with a very active white and almost soapy head that last for the deration of the beer. Nice lacing sticks to the glass from top to bottom.
S- First thing that comes to mind is yeast, hops, and wheat.. in that order. A highly complex scent overload of excellently crafted beer. On the last scent note is earthy alcohol.
T- Great taste on this triple. A heavy dose of alcohol and wheat kick me first, followed by a hop bitterness and alcohol flavor at the end. I like this combo.
M-D- Soft on the mouth, even with the alcohol esters burning at the tongue...i love it. Very dry feel and drinkablity is excellent if you can come by more than six at a time.

11.2 oz bottle poured into a Chimay Chalice
It pours a hazy orange gold color with a fluffy white head. Once the head dies down it leaves a moderate size cap on top.
The aroma is light with some yeast spiciness and a notable orange fruitiness.
Flavor-wise some malt flavors get in there with less orange than the aroma but still present. The finish is a little sweet with a nice light spice Belgian yeast character.
Mouthfeel is medium in the beginning but finishes dry which helps cut down on perceived sweetness. Drinkability is pretty high as I'm really enjoying this beer. A classic solid example of a tripel.

Sampled & reviewed on 1/27/07:
Ap: Thick two fingers of slightly tan head when poured. Head retention excellent. Vigorous carbonation. Deep gold, copper color. Sparkling....
Ar: Typical Belgian yeast aromas. Candied fruits, bubblegum. Slightly spicy phenols from Belgian yeast strain.
Ta: Deep, fruity body with the signature Belgian flavors & spiciness. White pepper, fruitiness & bubblegum. Beautiful malt profile focusing on pale & Belgian speciality malts as a foundation. Minor hop bitterness noted.
Mo: ABV is definitely evident. A bit boozy. Very light bodied, though. Extremely crisp & dry from Belgian Candi sugar. Highly carbonated. Very nice.
Dr: Excellent! Extremely drinkable even with the higher ABV. Goes down very smoothly but higher ABV keeps you in check or else you'd be unconcious after a few!
Comments: I loved this! Delicious. One of the best tripels I've had. The ABV is a bit pronounced, but well balanced with the sweet maltiness & dry, crisp mouthfeel.

A - Liquid gold with high carbonation and a nice high frothy head after the pour. Head faded but kept continuous coverage of beer.
S - This smelled like a perfect triple to me. Slightly spicy, slightly malty, but simple as it should be.
T - Crisp, clean, slight hop bitterness that is there from beginning to end. Tart finish, lots of flavor but well balanced. Very nice.
M - There is a bit from the carbonation and it is thin, but this is all to style. Good but not exceptional.
D - This beer is pretty drinkable considering the 8% ABV. The crisp balance and clean feel making drinking a 75CL bottle a pleasure and not a chore, even at the end.

Of all the Chimay beers this is probably my least favorite. The beer poured a nice golden color with a great white head that lasted till the last sip. The smell was quite skunky to begin with but it melowed out within a few minutes. The flavor was nice and crisp but lacked the depth that I expected from the brew. The tart hops were in effect and once I poured the yeast into the mix it helped things out a but but oveall a bland yet drinkable beer. Worth the price? no. Go with the Grand Reserve if you are going to go Chimay. But if you like slightly skunky brews witht decent characther, then give it a try.

Pours a hazy light brown color with a frothy two finger head that quickly fades into a thin head covering the surface of the beer.
The aroma is bready with strong smell of over-ripe fruit. The taste is malty with a plum and raisin flavor. This tastes similar to the Chimay red, but seems to have less body. The alcohol is disguised with the complex flavors, but can still be tasted. The mouthfeel is light with an adequate amount of carbonation. The finish is dry with fruit flavors remaining on the palate.
Overall this is a good beer to try for the style, however not my favorite of the Chimays.

A: a dark orange color that gives a thick, quickly receding head.
S: a sweet malt aroma leads the charge ahead of some yeasts, citrus, and hops.
T: malts are evident while dark fruits are a pleasant surprise with each sip.
MF/D: a faint fizzle of carbonation leads a medium bodied brew, though one is more than enough to drink at any one time.

Advocate Christ Medical Center believes in empowering women to be able to make intelligent health care decisions. Since women's health encompasses so much more than childbirth, we've designed our program to offer a complete line of specialty services to address women's health care needs across the life span. Our role is to educate women about the state-of-the-art options available at Christ Medical Center, the leading provider of health care services to the Chicagoland area.
Christ Medical Center is home to numerous family practice, internal medicine and pediatric physicians who can manage the wellness concerns of you and your family. These physicians have offices on the medical center campus and at the Christ Women's Health Center and at a variety of private offices conveniently located near you.
Our obstetrician/gynecologists can conduct annual exams and help you plan your pregnancy and delivery. Sometimes, help is needed to start a family. Christ Medical Center is staffed with reproductive endocrinologists (fertility experts) and other specialists in the areas of prenatal testing, high risk pregnancy and genetic counseling to give nature a helping hand.
More than 4,000 familes choose Christ Medical Center each year as the place to have their babies - second in the Chicagoland area. We offer a complete roster of prenatal classes for parents-to-be - and even some for big brothers and big sisters. Our Baby Advocate program offers newsletters that provide tips on pregnancy and keeping your baby healthy until age two. As a service to patients, mothers-to-be are automatically enrolled in this program if they are delivering at Christ Medical Center.
To make labor and delivery as comfortable and as special as possible, we offer family-centered care. Moms and babies are cared for by the same nurse in labor-delivery-recovery (LDR) suites that offer many of the comforts of home. Should complex needs arise during delivery, our status as a Level III perinatal center (the highest designation possible) provides access to experts in the fields of perinatology (specialists in maternal fetal medicine) and neonatology (specialists in newborn care). You won't find expertise like this at many other hospitals. In fact, many hospitals across Chicagoland and as far away as northwest Indiana and southern Wisconsin transport infants to our neonatal intensive care unit. As a new parent, you don't want to have to think about having to use these services. But it provides peace-of-mind to know the capabilities are there.
Once you return home, you can still access lactation consultants through the The Lactation Center for breastfeeding support and guidance. We also offer a Post-Partum Depression Support Group, to those having trouble adjusting to Motherhood.
To choose a pediatrician for your child, you don't have to look any further than Advocate Children's Hospital - Oak Lawn, located on the campus of Christ Medical Center. Advocate Children's Hospital is home to more than 140 pediatricians representing over 30 specialties. The hospital is home to The Heart Institute for Children, that performs more pediatric open heart surgeries than any other children's hospital in the state of Illinois. The hospital also specializes in pediatric hematology/oncology, critical care (Level I pediatric trauma center - highest designation possible), surgery and rehabilitation and development.
A woman can experience incontinence at any age. What's important for her to know is that it's not an inevitable part of life. In fact, the urogynecologists at Christ Medical Center perform cutting-edge urogynecological surgical and non-surgical techniques to treat this condition that can restore your quality of life.
Women facing many types of cancer can find a wide spectrum of care - from prevention and diagnosis to surgery and treatment options at Christ Medical Center. We treat a variety of cancers, among them are breast cancer and cancers of the female genital tract (gynecologic oncology).
When it comes to breast health, the Christ Medical Center Breast Health Center combines the medical expertise and services in one convenient setting. The center performs mammograms and offers advanced diagnostic capabilities, state-of-the-art treatment options, genetic risk counseling and bone density screening for osteoporosis. It is also home to the breast health conference, a weekly meeting of Christ Medical Center breast cancer experts from across the continuum of care who gather in one place to confidentially discuss women's diagnoses and options for care. A patient's care is coordinated for her - so she can concentrate on her condition. A breast health specialist is available 24 hours a day by pager to answer any questions or concerns patients have.
Uterine fibroids are the most common cause of premenopausal hysterectomies, accounting for one-third of all hysterectomies in the United States. Such prevalence has made uterine fibroids a major public health issue. Christ Medical Center's interventional radiology program offers the most state-of-the-art technologies to diagnose and treat uterine fibroids, including Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE), a non-surgical treatment used to eliminate tumors, giving patients piece of mind and providing patients much needed relief from pain.

Tasted On: 07-10-2014
Freshness: Not indicated
Packaging: 12 oz. brown bottle, pry-cap
Glassware: Tulip
Purchased: Received in a trade
Appearance has a hazy, honey-colored beer with a small white head that fades fast and leaves just a little lace behind.
Smells include fruity notes of bananas, coriander spices, and some barnyard yeast aromatics. Very nice nose
The taste is partly dry but also has some sweetness to it from the fruits. Flavors include green grapes, for a white wine taste, plus citrus fruit such as lemons and oranges.
The high carbonation makes for a prickly mouthfeel, with a body somewhere between light and medium. The finish is semi-sweet with green grapes, but also some tartness of lemon.
Overall a very enjoyable beer; it's interesting how the different flavors play out for a sweet and dry aspect at the same time.
Thanks to Treyliff for this one!

Serving: Bottle, from the bottle
Served: 29 May 2014
Appearance: Had this one from the bottle, but I made sure to rouse the yeast as I was drinking. I could tell that it was hazy, and it kept a light froth around the edges of the bottle.
Smell: Slight banana notes in the nose from the yeast with a powerful assertion of the spices.
Taste: Wow, this is an extremely complex wit. The standard wit yeast notes (banana and some slight funk) is present and relatively assertive, but the major player in this beer is the coriander and orange peel. I was really impressed with how assertive these spices were in this brew and was honestly a bit put off by them at first. This is steps above a Blue Moon, but is something I would probably not drink in quantity due to its assertive spiciness.
Mouthfeel: Effervescent and medium bodied.
Overall: A great witbier and one that really exemplifies the style. This is a heavily spiced beer- the spices are easily the most dominant part of the flavor in this one. It's not bad, but it takes some getting used to. Would recommend.

Appearance Very light yellow in color with a smallish head.
Smell The light malt character is mixed well with some big orange peel and some stiff spicing. This is a huge Witbier.
Taste The light malt base is infused with the hearty orange peel and gigantic spicing from the nose. This is more like a BSPA.
Mouthfeel Lightly carbonated and medium in the body. This one was fluffy and felt great in the mouth.
Drinkability I really enjoyed this beer, but it would probably be too much for most.

Chalky straw with a nice foamy head. Lovely apricot-pepper-lemon zest nose. Taste too is peppery and loaded with citrus and coriander. Very refreshing. Solid underlying malt backbone and subtle bitterness. Spicy and thirst quenching at the same time. Very complex for the style.

Reviewed from notes composed on 2/16/11. Thanks again for the hospitality, Walter the Dog.
Al the White pours a golden apple juice color with a white hazy film on top- there is not much of a head at all. The lacing is quite phenomenal- very sticky, archy, and dotty.
Woo dog, that's a spicy smell. Peppercorn and coriander are hugely important; the wheat also affects the spiciness a bit. This is a very sharp and crisp smell. Some lemon zest and cleaner citrus aromas also waft out of the glass.
Spice blends better with fruity, yeasty components in the taste than it does in the smell. Very nice, mellower fruity esters of banana and some crisp apple are evident, but the spice does make its presence known at the beginning of the sip.
The mouthfeel is a good juggling act between mellow creaminess and the bite of the spices. The body is light to medium, and is helped by excellent carbonation. The finish is nicely dry to temper the creaminess on the flat of my tongue.
I have been enjoying wheat beer more lately and this one was very nice. I thought it had great balance and strong flavors. I could certainly have a few of these on a hot summer day.

A: A pale golden beer with some haze. The white head has a rocky texture and is long lasting.
S: Moderate wheat and orange aromas with moderately-light black pepper notes. There is a light earthy hops aroma.
T: The flavor is mainly Belgian yeast characters of citrus and spice with the fruit character tasting like it was yeast derived, maybe from orange and lemon peel additions but no from hops. The wheat malt comes through as well. The hops bitterness is low but the overall bitterness is moderately-strong giving a balance that is bitter. The aftertaste is of citrus peel and spice.
M: Kind of soft and fluffy with a medium-light bodied beer and a strong level of carbonation. A light astringency that dries the palate.
O: A good Belgian Wit with a lot of citrus peel character and some spice. The balance is slightly too bitter. Worth trying but not worth tracking down.

3.18/5 rDev -23.4%
Poured from 12 oz bottle
A-Cloudy straw yellow with minimal head but some lacing left behind
S-Spices(coriander, cloves), wheat grain-reminiscent of a traditional hefe with an earthier yeast. Good aromatics but not a strong scent.
T-Wheat grain and spices with a fairly powerful earthy yeast flavor. The flavor was good but I did not enjoy the earthy yeast taste on this beer. Took alot away from the overall refreshing quality I enjoy in a wit.
M-Smooth in the mouth, but a little bit fizzy.
D-I wouldn't drink more than one because of the strong yeast flavor.
Overall well crafted beer with some good flavors-the yeast flavor was just not for me.

A: Cloudy white mixed with yellow hue with
little evidence of carbonation, head, lace,
etc. Quite a pretty pour in a simplistic
S: Heavy fruit/citrus aromas with a little bit
of grass/grain and just a hint of hop and
T: Fantastic rush of citrus fruit. This beer
could be my water substitute. The grassy
undertones are well highlighted but not at
all any competition for the citrus themes
of this brew.
M/D: The smoothness of this drink is virtually
unparalleled. I love the even bodied nature
and the almost perfect smoothness with
which this beer makes its way into your
stomach. There is none greater in the
summer months.

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Pours a slightly hazy straw yellow with a nice two fingers of dense white foamy head. The head sticks around for quite awhile and leaves terrific lacing down the glass. Probably one of the prettiest witbiers I have seen.
Aromas are a complex blend of light malts, spiciness, and a light citrus fruit reminiscent of orange or lemon zest.
The flavors are light and springy on the tongue. Theres so much going on but in a light but complex brew. First hit is a citrus and light malt taste with an herbal, perhaps grass like follow up. There is a nice bit of sweetness here but it is very well balanced. Carbonation adds a beautiful sense of mouthfeel that just couldn't match the flavors any better. The finish is light, crisp, and rather quick, leaving that slight bit of wheat in the linger.
This is just a great example of the style. Highly recommended.

Appearance: Cloudy light yellow to gold color. Pours with a rich head which receds to a thin layer that persists. Not much visible carbonation.
Aroma: Very yeasty aroma! Coriander & other spices very evident in the nose. Wheat profile balances yesty domination.
Taste: As the swirled yeast is poured on top of the glass, the initial taste is of yeast with a wonderful what balance. Spicy, yeasty, farmyardy flavor very distinct to Belgian wheats. This is a good example.
Mouthfeel: Light, crisp & wonderfully clean on the palette. Tastes very fresh. Medium carbonation & very smooth going down.
Drinkability: Very drinkable! These go down so smooth, you can easily drink a number consecutively.
Comments: This is a superb example of a Belgian white wheat beer. Fabulous. Very flavorful with spicy overtones while remaining light & crisp. Highly recommend....

Questions & Answers

After its accession to the European Union in 2004, Cyprus has dismantled most of its investment restrictions making it a very favorable ground for foreign investors. Taking advantage of the tax benefits and investment opportunities found in the region, many international investors have considered the cyprus company formation. Cyprus ranks as among the world leaders in attracting direct foreign investments with the flat corporate taxes imposed on the profits gained on the investments, Cyprus maintains its position as the lowest tax rate in the European Region. This provides a very profitable opportunity for foreign investments to continue with the Cyprus company formation making Cyprus at a competitive advantage as the business hub of Europe.
Higher taxes eat into the company's profits and it has always been good business sense to look for an investment opportunity where taxes are not oppressive. The matter of tax reduction becomes more interesting when international trading companies are concerned. One of the best jurisdictions is Cyprus with the investment benefits and tax rates for long term viability for business companies. The corporate tax rate of Cyprus at 10% is the lowest in the European jurisdiction making it the ideal environment for the Cyprus company formation. Because of its tax advantages Cyprus is recognized as the best investor friendly tax system in the whole of the European Union.
Cyprus is the ideal place to operate the international trading company from in order to take advantage of the low tax rates. When the economic crisis swept through Europe, many investors feared that Cyprus will modify the tax rates and reduce the investment benefits provided for foreign investors but, all the concerns were wrong since Cyprus has maintained its competitive advantage by continuing on being the offshore tax haven. With the tax advantages, it has become an obvious incentive for the Cyprus company formation.
Another incentive is the corporate structuring that is very beneficial for trading companies to save on the substantial amount of taxes. Cyprus offers your business the advantage of the strategic proximity to other industrial and trade hubs in the European continent including the favorable tax treaties that have been signed with other countries.

Re: My Lineup As Of Today
By that, do you mean getting rid of the 200 series Deere mower on the end? Everytime I see one of those it makes me want to punch the wall! My parents had one for years and it had electrical problems from the first time it was used until they replaced it with a new GT245 in 2006. It mowed great when it was running but unless you "hotwired" it from the battery to the coil, bypassing all the safety equipment, you were doing good if you cut the whole yard without it shutting down on you.

Re: My Lineup As Of Today
The 214 stays. My oldest son (now 27) learned how to drive on that when he was about 5, so he wants to keep it. I still mow with it once in a while, but the 425 gets 95% of the mowing done. All my IH's came with mower decks and that was the first thing I sold off them. If you want keep the the underside of your tractor pristine, don't mow with it.
Tezell, I think you're the first one that likes my 154 stack.

The king mackerel reigns supreme in the minds of many offshore fishermen who live between Texas and Virginia, and why not? Kingfish strike with abandon, fight hard, and get quite large. Plus, the stocks of kings came back from the brink of collapse when fishery managers wisely eliminated drift gill nets in the 1990s, so plenty of fish can be found in a great many places along the southeast United States coast.
This combination of factors spawned one of the most successful tournament series in history, the Southern Kingfish Association, and that series created a whole army of men and women who became experts at finding and catching big kings. It also provided welcome relief to the charter fleet in the South, allowing anglers to catch kings on a regular basis as part of a South Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico mixed bag.
You can catch kingfish on lots of different rigs, but for the truly big fish, most pros rely on live bait. And while rigging for kings is surely not rocket science, there exist many subtle tricks you can employ to maximize your chances of success. We recently spoke with three such professional fishermen — two SKA pros and one charter captain — and asked them to tell us of some of those tricks.
Bill Butler
Location: Belle Chase, Louisiana
Together with his brother Mike, Bill Butler owns Venice Marina in Venice, Louisiana, one of the best-known king mackerel hot spots in the world. The fertile waters of the northern Gulf of Mexico off the mouth of the Mississippi River consistently produce some of the most and the biggest kingfish found anywhere.
The Butlers, who run a 42-foot Invincible named Crawgator, have posted many wins on the SKA trail, and have hosted numerous tournaments out of their marina. Live-baiting has become an art form in that part of the world, and the bait supply there at times has to be seen to be believed.
"During fall, we sometimes get schools of pogies (Atlantic menhaden) that stretch as far as the eye can see," Butler says. "The kingfish follow the pogies in huge schools, so pogies are always one of our top baits. But you're not as likely to catch as many big fish on the pogies as you are on other baits."
For the big kings, Butler likes blue runners — locally referred to as "hardtails" — bluefish and Spanish mackerel. "We find the bluefish in fall," he says, "and sometimes we'll fish five- or six-pounders. The big kings love 'em." The fall mullet run presents opportunity as well, when the roe mullet appear in their annual migration and big kingfish follow them in.
"Every platform in the Gulf has hardtails around it," Butler says. "We fish around the rigs a lot, and we'll put 70 or 80 baits in the well before we start. If we need more, we can always toss a sabiki rig up by the well and catch a few more." Structure plays an important role in king mackerel fishing, and the thousands of oil rigs in the Gulf make a natural place for kings to hold. He likes to fish two baits deep on downriggers, and at least two more on the surface in the prop wash.

UN troops sent to Iraq border
Saturday 06 February 1993
Diplomats said the UN would not dispatch three infantry battalions as recommended by the Secretary-General, Boutros Boutros-Ghali, on 18 January. Instead, the plan is to send one battalion to replace the 500 lightly armed military observers authorised nearly two years ago. Currently, about 353 UN observers are actually deployed.
