COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Del was one of those mischievous 1970s men who liked to push social conventions. Del’s college years were intertwined with a whirlwind of girls, parties, road trips and occasional studies. Tripel B is spicy and complex with ester/clove aromas, a light straw color and moderate carbonation. Pair with rich creamy foods like roasts, lobster and cream brulee.

dfinney23 (1004) - Houston, Texas, USA - MAY 19, 2012
Pours hazy amber with a large but quickly fading white head. Aroma is complex -- spice, fruit, yeast and earth. Taste is lighter and lightly sweet. Very good tripel.

SphinxTX (2846) - Mata Gorda, Texas, USA - MAY 7, 2012
750 ml bottle. Description says light straw yellow but I am staring at a murky amber with orange hues and a tan head, looks nice! Aroma is filled with malt and pleasant fruity esters of mango, banana with a slight black pepperiness. Flavor is much the same and sweet with a nice alcohol spiciness and subtle farmhouse. Mouthfeel is medium-heavy body with fizzy, soft carbonation. Overall, solid brew!!!!

dnstone (1991) - Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - MAY 2, 2012
Spiced sweet fruit (apple and pear) aroma. Hazed golden with white head (keg might not have quite settled yet). Apple-pear and spice comes through in the flavor as well with a slight alcohol finish. I like this one for its authenticity in that it is soft and not too malty. Notes: On tap at the Off-Centered Film Fest, Austin ’12

Mora2000 (4059) - McKinney, Texas, USA - APR 19, 2012
On tap at the Big Texas Beer Fest. The beer pours a yellow color with a white head. The aroma has a lot of bread and white notes, with a little bit of yeast thrown in. The flavor is more of the same, with some wheat and grain coming through front and center. There is also a little bit of sweetness from the candy sugar, as well as a little bit of toasted character. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

decaturstevo (4087) - decatur, Tennessee, USA - APR 5, 2012
Hazed orange pour with watery head. Large bready yeast, wheat, and light brown sugar. Bread, abv, and rock candy. Medium bodied with good carbonation.

bleeng (1383) - Houston nowhere near Beersel, Texas, USA - MAR 30, 2012
750 bottle. Pours hazy light copper/dull gold with very little head. Yeasty, grassy, wheat field aroma with a hint of spiciness and some heavy maltiness-no hops. Taste-I detect a hint of smokiness, with a heavy malt, grainy, wheaty flavor, with a thick, rich mouthfeel. A slight hint of sweetness with a firm body. I prefer my tripels a bit lighter but this is a decent, well done beer. I think on draft this would be excellent if the body was lightened up just a tad.

kidmartinek (2466) - austin, Texas, USA - MAR 30, 2012
Light Belgian yeast aroma. Rich cloudy apricot color. Thin white head. Very smooth. Medium body. Rich malt taste but not overbearing. Really a good beer. Malt heads will love this one.
