Commercial Description:
Our Trippel Belgian Style Ale (pronounced triple) opens with a bold blast of hops that slowly gives way to the fruity esters implied by our Belgian yeast strain. The Three Graces hand-painted on the label are Zeus’s daughters Aglaia (splendor), Euphrosyne (mirth) and Thalia (good cheer). In the Belgian tradition of brewing singles, doubles and triples, Trippel is the strongest with the longest fermentation. Remarkably smooth and complex, our bottle-conditioned Trippel is spiced with a trace of coriander.

Had it bottled. 7.8% alcohol, way too strong. Unfiltered beer. Taste was abnormal and unpleasant. Will not be having it again.

Golden pour with a generous head initially but thinning head. Unfiltered. Fruit aroma, namely apricot, peach, banana. And some coriander as well. Malt based, and flavor is slightly better than the aroma. A good effort, but not quite top tier. Good beer, not mind blowing, but solid nonetheless.
