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.

I really enjoyed this. As it got warmer it got better. Fruity flavors but mild fruity flavors. Malty. Good beer. Golden in color with a white head.

Bottle at a tasting. Copper pour, frothy bubble head, wet lacing. Big belgian yeasty nose, dry wheat, cotton candy. Very grainy, tons of wheat and sweet malt, some sticky dark fruit and smooth vanilla. Medium-bodied, sticky on the palate, and quite drinkable.

Not the best Trippel I’ve had but a good one nonetheless. Sweet malts and spicy hops. Not too shabs.

Draught. Poured a nice golden amber color with a medium size fluffy head. Aroma of sweet malt, citrus fruit, and a hint of yeast. Flavor starts fairly sweet, ends slightly bitter. Seemed watery for a trippel.

A clear gold, well carbonated beer with a tiny white head. Aroma is grain, wheat, and yeast. A very nice flavor that cascades in waves. Clove, hops, malt, candi sugar, spice, and alcohol flavors. It is very zesty in the mouth and lights up the tongue. Finish is dry and almost a champagne effect. An excellent Trippel.

~Pours a clear gold with big foamy white head. ~Citrus, clove, banana, and yeast in flavor. ~Banana flavor with clove spice and hops. ~Medium feel, yeasty clove bitter finish. ~Enjoyable Trippel. Hides alcohol well. Slightly above average Trippel.
