Red Star Belgian Tripple

As ’Liquid Evil Belgian Trippel’. Nice sweet nose, light sugar and melon. Belgian yeast and maltiness, smooth alcohol and musky ripe melon esters. Light citrus, too. Medium amber clear liquid with foamy lacing white head. Heavy watery body with medium silky carbonation. Not quite syrupy, but close. Starts sweet and stays sweet throughout. Sugar and musky melon, orange and alcohol (cointreau). Strong alcohol taste, estery and full of body. Bitter finish is almost balanced with the sweetness, though it can be almost cloying in the finish and after. Also has a mild salty aftertaste or bitter orange.

Draft only - served in a 10 oz snifter. Dark golden color with a medium sized white head. The aroma is sweet and fruity with a hint of honey. The texture is thick. The flavor is sweet and sugary with a hint of orange. A bit of malt and bitterness lingers on the aftertaste. One of the Red Star’s better seasonals.

Strong and cloudy. Aromatic
