Some residual sugars and almost fruit on the nose. Deep red colour. Very true to tripel style in terms of flavour profile. Big, malt-driven punchiness.

Pours copper with a very small fading head.Nose shows soft phenols, bready and toasty malt and sultanas.Flavours include toasty and biscuity malt, brown sugar and spicy notes.

Second of the ten "Red Project" red beers made for their 10th anniversary. Odd that I recall going there a little more than 10 years ago with our then tiny daughter - they seemed very well established that day. Bottle, 11C. Dark reddish brown with a beige head that fades pretty quickly but never quite disappears. Gentle malty aroma with hay, dough, oranges, some dried fruit, light roasty notes. Medium bodied. Quite bright fruity flavours - oranges, pears - with a firm roasted note, floral and peppery bitterness. Intriguing finish with oranges and mildly roasted coffee. Not sure whether it’s really red or a tripel, but an interesting and accomplished beer.
