Moa St Josephs is a classic Belgian Tripel. Strong spice, caramel and banana ester characters create complex flavours and aromas which are heightened by its extended bottle conditioning period. The combination of bittering hops, malt and candy sugars compliment the high alcohol content and integrate into a very approachable and drinkable Tripel.

Bottle 37,5 cl. Courtesy of Ungstrup. Pours golden with a slight haze and a white head. Sweet fruity nose with a massive alcohol. Very solid body, notes of rotten fruits and yeast with bad phenols. Boozy finish. A rather unpleasant Triple. 150610

Golden straw hue with medium-sized white head leaving lots of lacing. Would have liked the head to be longer-lasting thoughAroma is lacking for the style, really have to search for it. Hints of banana, some spicy cloves and a little bit of green hops. Very soft alcohol. Very faint skunk (stupid green bottle?)Taste also lacks depth. Doughy yest, substantial bitterness, alcohol takes over in lingering finish. Spicy/peppery hints with a bit of lemon peel/bitter orange.Mouthfeel is damn near perfect, slightly too much heat on the palate.Lacking in aroma and flavour, but a fine effort from NZ brewery Moa.
