Commercial Description:
Rich pale malt flavors provide a solid base for zesty Styrian Golding and Czech Saaz hopping. Trappist ale yeast contributes the fruity, spicy profile of classic, monk-brewed, Belgian ales. Our Trippel is luscious, fiery, golden brew and a contemporary rendition of traditional Belgian Trippel.

Bottle from State Line. Pours hazy coppery/dark straw with 3-finger fluffy off-white head. Aroma of funky yeast and candi sugar up front, with fruity peachy and floral notes later. The taste was funky candi sugary malty, with floral, peachy/apricotty notes, and some finishing hopcitrus.

Pours a lightly hazy golden amber with a small white bubbly/creamy head. Aroma was fruity, Belgian yeast and spices, light alcohol, perfume and peach. Flavor of banana, Belgian yeast and spices, kind of hot and dry, nice carbonation and mouthfeel. Also getting some light citrus, green apple and spice. Well done American Tripel.

Poured a lighter golden color with good head. Aroma was of light fruits, stronger yeast. Flavor was of bananas yeast had a hop bitterness in the finish. Was a thin almost watery mouthfeel.

Poured a fairly clear/filtered golden color, decent head on top, but not overly done, not top of the style. The aroma was apples, bananas, yeast. The flavor was pretty nice, exceeded my expectations for an American tripel, bananas, strong yeast, little hop bite to keep things honest, was a great beer after running a few Franziskaners. Mouthfeel was the greatest knock, pretty light, maybe deceptively light and watery for the style. A nice job by a brewer I didn’t think was gonna produce.

22 oz bomber. Nice deep blonde to amber body with a reasonable amount of lacing. It’s not a bad approximation of the style, but it has a couple of the more annoying characteristics of American tripels - a big buttery, occasionally syrupy flavor that doesn’t integrate well enough with the spicy, grassy dimensions. Enjoyable but nothing earth-shaking.

Bomber. Beer is clear, medium neutral brown. Head is initially large, frothy, beige. Mostly lasting as a skim on the surface.<P> Pretty on. Aroma is malty with light notes of toasted grain, toffee; Hoppy with a light note of resin/pine, trace tarragon-like herb; Yeasty with a light note of basement; Light spicy alcohol, tropical fruit, trace green apple peel.<P> The flavor moderately-to-heavily sweet, lightly bitter with an average-length, lightly sweet, warm finish. Slightly clingy and metallic aftertaste.<P> The body is medium, the texture is watery and the carbonation is softer-than-average.
