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.

Big floral aroma with large pepper hints. A little bit of banana and grapefruit make their way into the beer's flavor profile. A real treat, to say the least.

This is the absolute best beer that you can get at this price range. One of the beers that I purchase more than any other on value alone. If I cannot afford something pricey, I seem to always go with Trippel, and always end the night very satisfied. Very good price.

Excellent beer. Looks hazy and cloudy in the bottle, and pours with a nice golden color. Spiced flavors and aromas hit you after opening the bottle and taking drink.

Absolutely excellent! I could smell the aroma from the pour while I was standing up and away from the glass. What a great combination of flavors with a wonderful hop boquet. It’s a gloden color with a distinct cloudiness and plentiful white head and lace. Once again...excellent.

Great floral scents complement this phenomenal trippel. I have had several other New Belgian products but this my friends is their best work to date.

WOW! I remember teh first time I had this. I was amazed that beer could have such a complex palate. I tried some imported trippels from Belguim and this was true to the style and flavour.

Gorgeous color. Spiced aroma reminiscent of seasoned wood, citrus fruits, and Autumn. Very pleasing to the tongue, full bodied flavor. Rather warming on the way down. A beer to drink with friends around a bonfire on a cool autumn night.

Very nice rendition of this style. Much care has been taken to make this as authentic as possible. Second only to Fin Du Monde on this contenent in my book.
