COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Our Summer seasonal, Trade Winds Tripel is a Belgian-style Golden Ale with a Southeast Asian twist. Instead of using candi sugar (typical for such a beer), we use rice in the mash to lighten the body and increase the gravity, and spice with Thai Basil. The result is an aromatic, digestible and complex beer made for a lazy summer evening. (ABV: 8%, IBU: 25, SRM: 5, Release: Summer, Format: 750 mL bottles)

tfontana (5573) - Fremont, New Hampshire, USA - JAN 19, 2020
UPDATED: JAN 19, 2020 Can (born 4/25/19) pour from Total Wine & More, Burlington. Appearance is lightly hazy gold-light brown with light sparkle, finger-width white foamy head with poor retention and no lacing. Aroma is strong (from over a foot away) herbal/spicy--almost ginger--basil, fruity ester, tart fruit. Taste is spicy herbal fruity ester, mild tart. Mouthfeel is light-to-medium bodied with smooth texture, average-to-lively carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, an interesting take on a tripel with the lighter body from the rice and the spiciness from the Thai Basil.

thegreenrooster (6940) - St.louis, Missouri, USA - JUL 6, 2019
UPDATED: JUL 6, 2019 Pour is a almost clear dull gold with a large white head. Aroma is triple Belgian yeast ester with some herbal basil in the backround. Flavor is more dry cracker malt with a nice ester, some bubble gum sweetness and again a herbal finish. Not much of a aftertaste but it leaves you ready for the next sip. Decent triple. Lots of yeast esters and there was probable just the right amount of basil, just enough to let you know it's there but it did not get in the way of the base beer.

nosajhongkong (270) - Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, ENGLAND - MAY 1, 2019
UPDATED: MAY 1, 2019 Bottle bought at HK Brewcraft. Appearance: Pours a hazy, deep golden colour with minimal white head Aroma: Complex aroma of banana, pear, citrus, Belgian yeast, spice, and apricot with some mild floral, herbal , candied sugar and bread notes. Subtle perfume-like aroma, too. Taste: Medium herbal and floral hop bitterness. With some stronger malt candied sugar and honey sweetness at the end. Palate: The aftertaste has some spice, pear, bubble gum Belgium yeast and perfume-like feeling. Highly carbonated with a medium body and dry finish. Overall: A nice mixture of fruitiness, Belgian yeast and spice.The South-Asian twist in a Belgian Tripel turns out to be quite pleasant and aromatic. Very summery, approachable and innovative.
