COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Spollen Angel is Upright’s first foray into a classic abbey style. Named after friend and colleague Chris Spollen of Amnesia Brewing, this Belgian-style tripel uses the same yeast strain as the recently released Todo Modo but in a very different recipe, yielding our strongest brew to date. Look for lots of bubblegum and other fruity notes wrapped around Mt.Hood hops which provide contrasting floral and grassy flavors. While the Spollen Angel clocks in at 10.6% abv, it remains surprisingly drinkable thanks to an extra dry finish. Cheers Chris!

Draft. Amber beer with a whitish head. Yeast and spice aroma with fruity esters and banana. Fruity flavor with yeast and spice. Medium bodied. Fruity esters and yeast linger with spice and light sugary malt.

AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20

ericdevin (289) - Eugene, Oregon, USA - FEB 10, 2013

Draft at Grain and Gristle, Portland. Pours a slightly cloudy golden color, no lacing. Aroma is slight barnyard funk. Heavy, syrupy body is thick and spicy. Finish is round, complex and long lasting, slightly musty, warming is very apparent. One of, if not the best American examples of tripels that I’ve had. Really an excellent beer.
